What are you looking for in a power center. With Monster, not only are you paying more than the product is worth, but you're also supporting a company who makes a habit out of anti-competitive practices including suing small American businesses. They also have a habit of misinforming potential customers with confusing, misleading, and just plain incorrect specs and features all to get their money.
If you're looking for power protection and ir control, I'd go with a Tripplite, panamax, Belkin, or other surge protector/power center and a separate IR blaster system or harmony remote. Both will cost you less than the monster solution, offer better functionality, and not support, what I believe, is an evil company. Yes, evil:
