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. 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. 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.
Get All The Performance You Paid For
With Monster Power's Home Theatre Reference PowerCenters, you'll get the best possible audio and video performance from your home theater system.
Product Description
When you consider the value of your new HDTV and your home-theater system, the price of the Monster Cable Home Theatre Reference PowerCenter HTS 3600 MK2 is well worth the assurance of protecting your components from electrical surges. It also helps your system perform better overall. Many so-called ?power conditioners? only protect against random power surges and/or voltage spikes. But, in fact, AC power line noise and noise generated by other components is an equally harmful and constant threat to performance. These disturbances can cause inferior picture quality marred with video streaking, lower resolution and video bandwidth. Many power conditioners' outlets often can't handle the peak transient current capacity that high power amplifiers demand. As a result, dynamic distortion and loss of peak power can occur, preventing your amplifiers from ever maximizing their performance. 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. The PowerCenter features component-assigned color coding with matching power cord labels for easy identification, and is rackmountable, for easy integration into custom installed rackmount systems. 6500 joule rating provides a high level of surge absorption

 Picture so clear it's scary. August 11, 2008

The Monster HTS 3600 MKII Power Conditioner arrived just in time for the
start of the Bejing Olympics. The first thing I noticed was effect the unit had on the picture. It took it to a whole new level. I have a 50inch Panasonic plasma with a PS3 for blu-rays. Bestbuy never
could sell me on their calibration service due to the fact my picture
looked so good right out of the box. I was afraid they would mess something up and my plasma would never look the same again. I did'nt think
it was possible for my picture to get any better...that is until I hooked
up the Monster Power conditioner. The picture became sharper, the colors
more vibrant and saturated and there seems to be more of a 3D sensation to the picture. The box is quiet with no noise whatsoever. It stays
cool, no heat whatsoever even though I never turn it off. I got mine for
less than half of the list price through Amazon so I'm real happy with
the deal. As I always say, If Amazon don't sell it, I don't buy it. Amazon is the greatest.

Excellent product, that works great. Have never had a problem with Monster Power Conditioners.
 Good, solid performer with a flaw July 9, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Got it today from Amazon at a great price. Setting up is easy with the included cables. The manual can be further improved with more technical explanations on what the protection circuitry actually does. My TV (50" Panasonic 1080p plasma) doesn't seem to have improved over a direct connection to the wall outlet; but the sound stage (via digital optical) of my Yamaha YSP900B (surround sound projector) does. The unit is well built and well integrated with other AV components. The only flaw is the low frequency buzz - audible within 5 ft from the unit. One would think Monster, being a reputable AV (primarily in AV interconnect cables) manufacturer, would not have allowed such a quality issue in the circuitry design. When the unit is enclosed in my AV cabinet, the buzz is not noticeable. But audiophiles beware! I would not have lived with the buzz if the unit is housed on an open AV rack.
The included gold plated coax cable is only 3 ft long, obviously not enough for any serious setup. Again, Monster is a cable company after all; it should have included a longer cable.
Overall, the unit is a good performer with a flaw (the buzz).
monster mash July 6, 2008
It's a grave yard smash,so easy to hook up all your components, it's made for the not so gifted like my self who can't figure out how to set up your home stereo/ theater system.On the back of the Power Center it tells you exactly what to hook up, you just have to get the right power cord- a no brainer.The power Center looks great and is high quality and the guarantee for not frying your TV is great. I just bought a 52 inch Sony XBR5 and and can't afford a melt down during a power spike, this just gives a little more peace of mind.Aloha
I now have the FULL HD experience!! June 22, 2008
Monster Home Theatre Reference HTS 3600 MKII PowerCenter with Clean Power Stage 3 v.2.1 Circuitry
I bought this Home Theatre Reference HTS 3600 MKII ... thru AMAZON.COM, I can't believe the difference, my HT already sounded great but now it sounds even better. My wife and my son are by no means tecki like me, and they were able to tell the difference immediately. The biggest difference lies in the video filtering. I have an older Hitachi HD TV about 6 yrs old. So as soon as I turned on the TV the first difference is the colors are now deeper and much richer. The sound is from a Denon AVR 3806 with Infinity Beta 50 series for towers, 360cc, SW12 and Beta 20's for my rears. So the sound was already good but now I have the FULL HD audio experience, extremely completed, your system will not be complete unless you add one of these babies to it. My sound is even smoother and cleaner now than ever before. The 1st thing my son said when he heard the difference was, " is this an AMP? " right now u can go to any store near u and if its available it's regular price is right around $[...] + TAX. I got it for $[...] shipping. This baby ROCKS!! AGAIN Thankyou AMAZON!!
