Need some advice on Power Centers/Surge Protectors - Blu-ray Forum

jvoorhees · 02-25-2008, 02:46 PM

Hey all... quick question... why would one get a say Monster Power Center as opposed to a standard Monster Surge Protector... whats the benefit... keep in mind Im a total noob with home theatre stuff...

I was looking at this power center on the weekend

But want to know if its worth it or if my Monster Power Bar/Surge Protector does the job.... I have my LCD TV, Amp, 2 XBOX 360's, PS3, Digital Box and an Ipod all plugged into my power bar currently...

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers in advance!

A power conditioner cleans the electric supply to the system. It will make you HT more efficent. It will also clean up your picture and audio. I like Monster, I also like Panamax, a lot.

Get one.
