Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Monster Cable MP HTS850 Home Theater PowerCenter
Customer Review: Is it really worth it?
Summary: 3 Stars
I bought this becuase of the hype..Clean power equals better picture and sound. Sales guys say it does make a difference--real world answer for me at least is that I could not differentiate between my cheapie $15 surge protector and this Monster Cable PowerCenter. I dont think I would buy this again. Probably go with a cheaper version next time.Customer Review: Buzzing Noise
Summary: 2 Stars
It seems like a nice product, but when I plug it in, there is a high pitched buzzing noise. It is quite loud. Will be sending it back and hopefully a replacement will perform better.Customer Review: Home Theater Powercenter
Summary: 4 Stars
To me, a power strip is a power strip. I can't tell the difference with some of them but I figured with a new plasma, why take the chance of ruining a $2k item. figured I would get something rated for more joule surge protection. I like the way they have everything pre-labeled so you know which cord is which. That is probably what really sold me on this one. It was much cheaper getting it from here than your local stores. Like 40% cheaper. One thing the company says is it regulates power so there is no flicker on the TV. I do not see any but really have not experienced that before?
The pros: Color coded and labeled outlets, plenty of plug spots, high rated joule protection
The cons: The blue power light is pretty bright (like a night light), You can't plug in "power pack" plugs
One complaint to "Cable Companies" is they say you can't run the cable into a surge protector because it interferes with the updates and communication between their computer and the box. So I do not care about their box so I just run everything going "out" of the box through the surge protector instead of going into it.
Customer Review: Improvement in Video and Audio worth full Price
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this on Amazon for 1/3 the MSRP but the improvement in picture and sound after moving all my home entertainment plugs from a surge protector to this was so great to be worth full price or more! I am very happy with this picture. I now feel like I don't need to tweak it anymore!Customer Review: Happy with the purchase

It's a great product. Just a little note..it makes a very slight humming noise when it is on. Nothing that you would hear normally. We noticed the noise when it was super quiet in the house. But does not disturb us. We will buy it again in the future.
