Monster Cable MP HTS 1000 PowerCenter with Clean Power Stage 2 (v.2.0)

Harmful power surges and voltage spikes can travel up the AC power line and damage connected equipment. Lightning, automatic garage doors, power tools, refrigerators and fluorescent lights all cause power surges and voltage spikes that affect phone lines and coax cables. Monster's Multirole SurgeGuard detects harmful power surges and voltage spikes before they reach components. This PowerCenter HITS 1000 features special surge protection for phone lines and coax cables used for DSS, DIVX /DVD and cable TV connections. Other surge protectors can result in as much as 20 to 30 dB of signal loss, which ultimately affects the output performance of coax connections. Monster's ultra-low loss RF circuitry provides virtually no signal loss to maintain peak performance. Best of all, an audible surge alarm and visual surge indicator warn you of harmful surges and let you know you're getting the most advanced protection available.

I was definitely skeptical going into this purchase, but its ended up great. I had some minor distortion periodically on my TV, a few channels were fuzzy... but the final straw was I started getting some bands of color on the TV. I called my TV repair guy and he replaced the board, but I still had problems. A friend told me to try this guy out, so I figured I might as well... worst case scenario it ends up being returned. I have to say it has greatly exceeded expectations. I've owned it for a year and a half and it seems just as good as when I bought it. It's built really well, laid out logically and has nice labels... the connections all feel secure, but are still simple to plug in and out of. It really improved my picture quality on my TV, and what I didn't expect was it got rid of a lot of white noise from my stereo system! White noise I didn't even notice until it was gone. I thought my speakers were quiet before, but until they were plugged into this guy... oh man. Over all, I would highly recommend this product. It is worth giving it a try

The only shortcoming to this unit is plug spacing which hampers connecting wall-mount-type power supplies. The unit is one of those great "put it in & forget about it" parts that are vital to the overall success of a modest home theater installation.

Works as advertised but I did not see a change. I bought the powercenter to protect my equipment and piece of mind. Great quality product compared to others.

first spike my house ever had fried this product . i have know idea if this product helped or not . the spike fried an xbox that was not hooked up to a surge protector . but it should have some sort of a reset if ther is a spike.

I have this connected to my 40" Samsung LCD and the picture is amazing. Before using this product turning on lights would make the picture flicker, but now it is GONE. Quite a few outlets for power and antenna. I had the antenna directly into the tv, but tried to go through the surge protector. It actually cleared a few channels up, so I was impressed. Overall, good product and recommended. PS. The surge protector is large (normal surge protector on steroids), so look at the dimensions.
