Monster Cable MP HTS800 HP High Performance Home Theatre PowerCenter® HTS800 With Satellite 8 outlets, 1 coax, 1 phone, Clean Power
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.

Perfect for my setup.:
Feels like a great power strip. Plugs fit snuggly into the sockets.
Been on for a few days, still cool to touch. 4 Stars
Color on plugs are cool, but out dated names.
VCR, DVD, CD, are 3 of the 5 colors. I have none of those as standalone components in my setup..
Good Quality, Low Price.:
I didn't notice a big difference in quality, but it gives me piece of mind that I don't have my equipment just plugged into the wall. I saw this exact same product/model at RC Willey for $99.99. I paid a lot less than that at Amazon.
Noticable picture quality upgrade:

After adding the surge protector to the other TV, the difference that this model created regarding picture quality was hard to believe. I thought the picture on my 1080 was great before, now so much more sharper. Highly recommend this... more info
So far, so good...:
So far, this product does what it is supposed to do, although I haven't experienced any noticable increase in picture or sound quality. I like the "color coded and labeled" plugs to simplify unplugging the right thing. It has a nice long cord, and I like the fact that it comes with a short run of good quality coax cable included in the package. Monster always makes good stuff, and I was thrilled to see this at such a good price on Amazon. When I recently bought my new Hi-Def TV, the salesman at my local... more info
