Amazon.com Product Description:
Amazon.com Product Description The fact is, analog audio equipment is sensitive to a different type of noise than video, just as video is sensitive to a different type of noise than digital, and so on. In the past, manufacturers have used filters to combat the problem of noise introduced via power sources. Unfortunately, the filters were not optimized to attenuate at the different frequencies that are unique to digital, analog audio, and video realms. Products that managed to deliver truly cleaner AC power were thousands of dollars in price, out of reach for most people. Enter Head Monster Noel Lee. An uncompromising audiophile, Lee joined forces with Richard Marsh, the world’s foremost expert on AC power, to develop affordable solutions to AC power problems. The result? Monster Clean Power.

The following overviews of Monster’s isolated, specially tuned Clean Power filters demonstrate the methodology behind Clean Power’s development. The higher the Clean Power stage, the more advanced the noise filtration. The more advanced the noise filtration, the higher the level of component-to-component isolation.
Optimized to reduce noise generated by digital equipment digital filters isolate digital components from connected analog audio and video components for maximum rejection of interference.
Optimized to reduce noise generated by video equipment, video filters isolate video components from connected digital and analog audio components for maximum rejection of interference.
Optimized to provide maximum noise rejection for sensitive analog audio components, audio filters isolates audio components from connected digital and video components for maximum rejection of interference.
Optimized for maximum noise rejection, ultra-high current filters provide maximum current to high power components such as surround sound amplifiers.
Reference Home Theater Power
Monster PowerCenters also offer the most comprehensive home theater system protection available, featuring higher joule ratings for faster acting, full capacity surge protection. Monster’s Multiple SurgeGuard and Tri-Mode Circuitry instantly detects any voltage surge or spike and immediately suppresses it before it can reach your components. And, for your total peace of mind, the latest generation of Monster Home Theatre Reference PowerCenters come with higher Connected Equipment Guarantees (CEGs).
Unlike other surge protectors, the PowerCenters’ ultra low-loss RF circuitry provides maximum protection with virtually no signal loss, especially important with the advent of HDTV. In addition, all PowerCenters display current draw and voltage.
Monster recognizes that convenience is vital, too. The PowerCenters feature component-assigned color coding with matching power cord labels for easy identification, and all are rack mountable, for easy integration into custom installed rack mount systems.

Monster HTS 3600 MKII 10-Outlet Power Center with Stage 3 Clean Power
This system seems to work OK to protect my equipment. I bought it from BuyNow Incorporated thru Amazon and because 30 days had passed they said they I couldn't return it (part of the LED readout burnt out, cannot read voltage or amp draw). I didn't want to return it, just have the LED readout repaired. They suggested that I contact the manufacture and maybe they'll repair it. Apparently they are not a dealer so they could care less since "their 30 day return policy had expired". Not to happy about this situation. Rated it 3 stars because of the readout not working but I do believe that it'll protect my syste.
Best Protection for Your Electronics
I added this Monster Power Center to my home theater system over a year ago. And it has worked perfectly. I live at a lake in a very rural area and we are prone to having many electrical surges from the rural electric company or from bad weather! On many occasions, while watching the big 52" flat screen, listening to the surround sound system and the Blue Ray player puting out high definition... then a power surge from the electric company or a lightning strike in the area has caused the Monster HTS 3600 MKII Power Center to instantly stop the electricity going to all electronics plugged in to it. The Monster HTS 3600 counts "up" for several seconds and then turns on the systems I was useing. As another reviewer indicated... most flat screens are not covered under warrantee unless you have an approved surge suppressor "connected properly" to your system! Monster adds 10's of thousands of dollars of insurance coverage to your system "IF" you properly hook up the Monster system according to instructions that come with the system. It was very easy to install the Monster at the intertainment center. Outside... you will be required to ground the incoming signal cable with a copper rod that is put in the ground at least 4 feet. Very easy to do. At the price this product is being offered on Amazon... you must buy the best protection for your electronics investment. Much smaller surge protection products will cost you nearly as much as this Monster system at this current price!
Works and manages cables.
I really like this product- it cleaned up my picture on my 55" LCD a little- was good to begin with but better now. It also helps me manage my cables. You cannot tell from the back of my entertainment system that there are 7 devices connected. Nice to know how many amps my system is pulling too. Hope I never have to put it to the ultimate test- would hate to lose it.

Great item to protect your very expensive electronics. Has plenty of plugs and looks great too.
Peace of Mind
The unit was delivered on time and was received in excellent condition. Because it was a recently delivered electronic component and I wanted to prevent any condensation issues, I let the unit sit out-of-the-box for at least six (6) hours prior to plugging it in. I liked the fact that you can dim the red display lights at the front and also change it to display watts or amps. The device plugs at the rear of the unit are well labeled. For your electronic components that have a transformer box (AKA, wall wart) close to the plug prongs making the plug width much larger than usual, an extender/adapter plug will be required. Overall, I highly recommend the use of these type of units. It is for my peace of mind that I am doing everything I can to protect my video investment. My only suggestion/recommendation to the manufacturer is to include protection for RJ45 cables.
