Product Description
Item #: J70841. The power condition in the U.S. is unstable. The AC power that runs your home theater is constantly in a state of flux. Sometimes there's too much voltage, sometimes not enough. Power can become so unstable that you can actually see it happening, like when the lights in your house suddenly begin flickering. During the worst case scenario, when your equipment turns back on, a power spike can be 200-300 volts.Your expensive electronic home theater components are extremely sensitive to any increase in voltage, and can be severely damaged or destroyed by these unseen fluctuations in power. And, when it comes to surge protection, remember, it's all or nothing... every possible pathway for surges (including coax and phone lines) must be protected.The Monster Power Home Theatre PowerCenter HTS 850 is equipped with fast-acting, high-capacity Multiple SurgeGuard Circuitry which instantly detects any voltage surge or spike and immediately suppresses it before it can even reach your components. Plus, the HTS 850 has been designed with 2 sets of coaxial connections and 1 phone line so you can hook up your satellite receiver, cable box or HDTV antenna for total home theater system protection. Best of all, unlike other surge protectors, Monster's ultra-low-loss RF circuitry provides maximum protection with virtually no signal loss.

 Good Choice For A Good Price February 11, 2008

This product is definately worth the money.
Cleaner power reduces visible noise in television screen images, as well as the hiss you hear coming from your speakers when you have them turned up. Also, every thing connected to this surge protector is insured to over $350,000, an amount likely to cover almost any home entertainment system that any of us non-millionaires can afford.
With that said I do have to criticisms: Firstly, although the bright blue power light is attractive and makes the HTS850 look expensive, it can be a tad on the bright side, lighting up the space behind your t.v. cabinet when you have the lights dimmed. Secondly, other than the plugs on the top and bottom, all of the plugs are located on the right side of the unit, making plugging in all of your devices a bit of a hassle, epsecially if they have large plugs.
Over all it is an excellent product which I would recommend to anyone looking to protect the entertainment investment.
Works great! May 18, 2009

I used this to hook up my new plasma TV and entertainment center. I has enough plugs for the TV, DVD player, Satellite box, Stereo Receiver, Amplifier, X-Box, Nintendo Wi and network router. Everything works great, and I have made it thru several severe storms without even worrying about power surge.
Monster Cable Home Theater Power Center - some advice June 26, 2009

This is an update from a previous review, as we have now had it for several months. We had recently purchased a Panasonic Blu-Ray player and have a Panasonic hi-def plasma television and decided it would be prudent to protect this equipment. Frequent power surges, brief power outages, and lightning strikes have ruined a lot of our appliances over time, so we probably need all the protection we can get.
A main problem people comment on is plugging in the plugs. I agree! I have some advice. We had to hook it up to multiple things - the wall, the TV, the DVD player, the receiver for the speakers, the cable box, and a couple of other things.
Here is my advice. It is hard to get the coaxial cables plugged in, even with small fingers. After testing to be sure where every cord was coming from (and therefore needed to be plugged into), I would label all the cords and cables with the provided labels. Plug/connect them in in the following order: We used the second bank of coaxial connectors only, and we had 2 to go in side by side. Put in the cable closest to the flange overhang that projects right behind them (and the reason it is so hard to get them in) first. Then get that second one in. Then you can plug in the bulky 3 prong plug to the right of those two coaxial cables, and the rest are no problem. It helped to have two people, I have smaller fingers but my husband is stronger, so I held the cords upright while he screwed them in. I am certain he would have manged this himself, but it would have taken longer. We learned this method by trial and error.
I was also a bit disturbed to read in the booklet that came with the unit that you should unplug the power center in the event of a lightning storm. Unplug? We thought that was what it was for! I talked to a tech person at Monster and he told me that it is in fact, not necessary to do this, that if you are not home and cannot unplug it, it should save your equipment. If it does not, you are given the coverage up to $150,000. He did say they still recommend that you unplug all this stuff during a lightning storm, as that is a sure means of protection, but that in fact you can leave it plugged in. I'm still not sure why, but at least I got my basic question answered
So far, so good.

It's hard to gauge what makes a good versus great surge protector but it seems to be well built and easy to mount or place in your entertainment center. One thing I thought they would have done for a product of this price range would be to have a rotating plug (one that swivels). This one is I believe angled to the right but my entertainment center is to the left so not a help to me.

I now have 2 of this particular model. I have many of the Monster surge protectors and think that they are the perfect mate for any home theater application.
This particular model is nice because you can hang it on the wall (included bracket) and the wires plug in sideways, allowing home theater furniture to be placed closer to the wall. You could even get away with hanging it behind a flat panel TV mounted on the wall!
Clean Power Surges are awesome!
