Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Monster HTS 1000 MKIII 8-Outlet Power Center with Clean Power Stage 2Customer Review: Worked fine for over 5 years Summary: 3 Stars
Bought this for my home theatre system. I've never used the system without this unit, so I can't comment about any improvement in performance, but after just over 5 years of use, it's recently started making a humming noise. The humming has now increased to a loud buzz that does not go away if I unplug all the components that are connected to it. When it's buzzing, you can actually feel a slight vibration inside the unit. Oh, well. I got 5 years of use out of it.
Customer Review: Nice price on Amazon (that's right Best Buy!!) Summary: 4 Stars
Digital readout is cool, kinda shows you that its working. The power at the outlet I am using varies from 120 to 126, so it should be helping. I'm not so convinced that the Phone and Cat-5 jacks (DSL/Internet) do any filtering. The information flows through the Phone and Cat-5 jacks whether the power strip unit is plugged into the wall or not. Maybe those are strictly for surge and don't filter. Not sure, anyway, great deal on a sweet power strip.
Customer Review: high price but low quality Summary: 2 Stars
Not impressed with the quality of this product. Upon receiving it and plugging it in for the first time I noticed a section of the red LED voltage display was burnt out and would not function. I did not send it back because otherwise it still worked and would have cost me return shipping and hassle to do so. Very disappointed with the quality and quality control (or lack thereof) with these high priced monster products. Purchase at your own risk...
Customer Review: Great Surge Protector & Power Bar Summary: 5 Stars
This is my second Monster HTS 1000 MKIII Power Bar (my other one is over a year old, powers and protects another large screen HDTV system).
I have been in the computer and electronic business for over 25 years. These surge protectors are perfect for HDTV systems. The technology used is somewhat expensive but also the best for this application. If you want to protect your investment, this is the power supply to purchase.
Customer Review: It Seems To Work Summary: 4 Stars
I plugged it in, plugged in my television, cable box, dvd player and everything worked. I don't have an issue with "dirty" power so I see no change with this and I haven't been struck by lightning (knock on wood) so as far as the features of this product the jury is still out. I do however have peace of mind that IF I am struck by lightning that my new 61" Samsung LED DLP television is covered and that alone is worth the money I paid.
