Description:

Monster Cable's Home Theater PowerCenter HTS800 offers a multitude of inputs and a wealth of Monster technologies to protect your gear and ensure clean, reliable power. The PowerCenter features a Monster Clean Power Stage 1 v2.0 filter to deliver noise-free power to your components, an eight-foot AC power cable with a flexible, FlatProfile right-angle plug using a maximum-conductivity 24k gold contact, and a total of eight labeled and color-coded outlets (with matching cord labels for easy hookup).

Three of the unit's eight outlets are conveniently spaced for use with AC adapter transformers, and the power strip provides audible and visual indicators for damage, protection, and ground status monitoring. Its 1,850-Joule rating provides a high level of surge absorption.

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 coaxial cables. Monster's SurgeGuard detects harmful power surges and voltage spikes before they reach components.

The HTS800 features special surge protection for coaxial video cables used for satellite and cable TV connections. Other surge protectors' coaxial surge protection can result in as much as 20 to 30 dB of signal loss, detracting from video performance. Monster's ultra-low loss RF circuitry provides virtually no signal loss to maintain peak performance.

"Polluted" AC power can degrade the performance you expect from your home-theater components. Electrical power tools, air conditioners, cellular phones, and microwave ovens all generate electromagnetic interference and radio frequency noise which pollutes the AC power and degrades audio and video performance. Monster's Clean Power Circuitry filters out power pollution for more natural sound and better TV picture.

Designed by the renowned AC power expert Richard March, Monster's Clean Power Circuitry uses special filters to reduce electronic noise on your AC power line and ensure the best possible sound and picture from your components. You'll see a more vivid picture and hear more natural sound with increased dynamic range and less noise, especially if your AC power is severely polluted. You'll get back the performance you never knew you lost.

Monster's FlatProfile plug lets you push your furniture flush against the wall. And, with color-coded outlets and cord labels, you can avoid unplugging your VCR by mistake, causing it reset its clock. Finally, the PowerCenter comes with a generous eight-foot Monster power cord, which is the optimum length to reach most electrical outlets.

The strip is covered by a $150,000 connected-equipment warranty as well as Monster's lifetime PowerCenter product warranty.
