Monster Cable MP HT800 Home Theater PowerCenter Review

I have been using this powercenter for over a year and it works well.What I like best is that I don't notice any loss of signal quality when using the Coax filter.I have noticed this with other coax filters.The color coded and labelled outlets also are handy when moving/adding equipment.This way you know exactly what you are unplugging.A couple things I didn't like about the powercenter is that it is only rated at 15amps (~1800 watts).So if you have a 20amp circuit for your hometheater you are not able to draw all the power you could.This is probably not a big deal unless you have a lot of equipment and are running it all from the powercenter.Another item to watch for it that the coax input/output connectors have a tendency to loosen up.Then when I move the powercenter my sub woofer thumps loudly.Like it is shorting out internally.This is easy fixed or avoided by tightening the coax fittings.Lastly this unit will not take care of ground loop hums that can occur from improperly grounded cable feeds.

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.

Isolated Clean Power Digital Filters
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.

Isolated Clean Power Video Filters
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.

Isolated Clean Power Analog Audio Filters
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.

Isolated Clean Power Ultra-High Current Filter
Optimized for maximum noise rejection, ultra-high current filters provide maximum current to high power components such as surround sound amplifiers.
