Product Description

Monster Cable MP HTS5000 Home Theatre Reference PowerCenter® HTS5000 Home Theater Reference PowerCenter 5000

Amazon.com

Amazon.com Product Description The fact is, analog audio equipment is sensitive to a different type of noise than video, just as video is sensitive to a different type of noise than digital, and so on. In the past, manufacturers have used filters to combat the problem of noise introduced via power sources. Unfortunately, the filters were not optimized to attenuate at the different frequencies that are unique to digital, analog audio, and video realms. Products that managed to deliver truly cleaner AC power were thousands of dollars in price, out of reach for most people. Enter Head Monster Noel Lee. An uncompromising audiophile, Lee joined forces with Richard Marsh, the world’s foremost expert on AC power, to develop affordable solutions to AC power problems. The result? Monster Clean Power.

More Than Just Surge! -Monster Clean Power
The following overviews of Monster’s isolated, specially tuned Clean Power filters demonstrate the methodology behind Clean Power’s development. The higher the Clean Power stage, the more advanced the noise filtration. The more advanced the noise filtration, the higher the level of component-to-component isolation.

Isolated Clean Power Digital Filters
Optimized to reduce noise generated by digital equipment digital filters isolate digital components from connected analog audio and video components for maximum rejection of interference.

Isolated Clean Power Video Filters
Optimized to reduce noise generated by video equipment, video filters isolate video components from connected digital and analog audio components for maximum rejection of interference.

Isolated Clean Power Analog Audio Filters
Optimized to provide maximum noise rejection for sensitive analog audio components, audio filters isolates audio components from connected digital and video components for maximum rejection of interference.

Isolated Clean Power Ultra-High Current Filter
Optimized for maximum noise rejection, ultra-high current filters provide maximum current to high power components such as surround sound amplifiers.

Reference Home Theater Power
Monster PowerCenters also offer the most comprehensive home theater system protection available, featuring higher joule ratings for faster acting, full capacity surge protection. Monster’s Multiple SurgeGuard and Tri-Mode Circuitry instantly detects any voltage surge or spike and immediately suppresses it before it can reach your components. And, for your total peace of mind, the latest generation of Monster Home Theatre Reference PowerCenters come with higher Connected Equipment Guarantees (CEGs).

Unlike other surge protectors, the PowerCenters’ ultra low-loss RF circuitry provides maximum protection with virtually no signal loss, especially important with the advent of HDTV. In addition, all PowerCenters display current draw and voltage.

Monster recognizes that convenience is vital, too. The PowerCenters feature component-assigned color coding with matching power cord labels for easy identification, and all are rack mountable, for easy integration into custom installed rack mount systems.

Get All The Performance You Paid For
With Monster Power’s Home Theatre Reference PowerCenters, you’ll get the best possible audio and video performance from your home theater system.

From the Manufacturer

An Inferior Power Conditioner Can Ruin The Audiophile’s Quest For Sonic Perfection.
Many power conditioners use poorly designed filters and don’t have an isolation filter. These filters can’t stop AC power line noise caused by motor-operated appliances sharing the line with your system. They can’t prevent component-generated noise from polluting the rest of your system, either. As a result, audio lacks optimum clarity and realism. Picture quality isn’t sharp, and color lacks contrast and detail.

Without an isolation noise filter, analog equipment must share a common ground with digital components like CD players and DACs, which produce broadband noise. This noise contains interference at a frequency that can reduce the analog noise filter’s effectiveness to maximize performance.

Monster’s HTS5000 Combines Precision Audiophile Performance and User Convenience.
Designed by world-renowned AC power authority Richard Marsh, Monster’s patented Clean Power ™ Stage 4 filter circuitry prevents AC power line noise from damaging component performance. The two dedicated digital filters reject component-generated broadband noise, maximizing the performance of all connected equipment. Digital and analog TV’s will deliver a razor sharp picture with the most vivid color detail and contrast possible. Audio will leap from your speakers with 3-D realism, delivering amazing clarity, pinpoint imaging and precise soundstage. HTS 5000’s ultra- high current PowerLine ™ AC power cord features proprietary windings with heavy gauge copper strandings and a high density shield for maximum power delivery. Monster recognizes that convenience is vital, also. Instead of scrolling through a laundry list of menu options to program your outlets, the Monster Power HTS5000MKII features 10 individual slide switches, allowing users to easily program their AC outlets to be unswitched, switched, or switched with delay for maximum control over connected equipment. The HTS5000's phone line anti-collision feature ensures that multiple pay-per-view devices can share a phone line.

Monster also recognizes that convenience can be as vital as performance. An electro-luminescent panel behind the high sensitivity voltage meter lets you read the meter even in a dimmed room.

Get All The Performance You Paid For.
When the performance of your high end audio and video equipment is at stake, use the only power center that delivers totally clean power...the HTS5000.

Verified Purchase

The piece of equipment I received was not the one in the picture that was used. The one I received has no light in the meter, and the on and off buttons do not function, also the remote on and off function does not work! It stays on constantly.In addition there were also no rubber feet on the bottom of the unit as they had been removed and not replaced

Very good power conditioner.

Reviewed in the United States on April 6, 2017

The original HTS 5000 is very well made with high quality fiberglass boards, good internal components and a solid build quality. I'm using this with Conrad Johnson and Martin Logan speakers, etc.

The sequencing modes are selectable in terms of circuits and duration. There are no negative impacts on sound quality.

Please note, this unit does regenerate power or maintain voltage. It conditions the power clamping spikes and filtering noise.

The Home Experience
I have a Sony Grand WEGA KF42WE610 42" using Comcast Cable reception w/o the box (analog reception). I wanted to give a bare bone truth if the HTS5000 is any good or not. After spending 1hr 30minutes properly installing my plugs, making sure my wall socket had 3 prongs (not use a 3 prong to 2 prong cheat which will void your warranty, the HTS5000 will not register as being grounded) and installing some copper wire to grounding the HTS 5000 itself (water pipe, iron/steel fixture tucked behind a wall or heater vent will do nicely) I was finally able to plug the HTS 5000, turn on the Sony STR-DE885 receiver w/ 150 watt preamp sub. I immediately noticed a better quality of sound and I was finally able to maintain its volume (as it would decrease and I would have to turn it up even more). It is the same sound quality as mentioned earlier with the Best Buy receiver. The picture is less pixilated and flesh tones are better (although nothing like Direct TV). Cartoon network has vivid, sharp colors (the colors orange and yellow, blue and purple, etc are distinguished. #1 noticeable difference pronounced even as I write this review is the TV's sound quality! It is as good as my STR-885 Sony Receiver! The sound volume remains the same and the bass is much richer then before. The voices are crisp, clear and audible. In the past I accepted the fact that my TV speakers were no good (reason for buying the STR-885) until today! Another positive trait is viewing Channel 2 via cable. In my area channel 2 is the worst channel, producing a series of thin horizontal to diagonal lines. The lines are very noticeable and distracting giving a 3d effect as you attempt to watch a program only having a 75% viewable screen. After installing the HTS 5000, channel 2 is now 95% viewable. You now have to look real hard to find them from 5' away! This is 2nd biggest improvement as I already have a 4 port, Electroline Drop Amp with single shielded RG-6 cable wire. The coax cable is connected to the HTS 5000 and a Monster top grade coax cable from the HTS 5000 to the TV.
SIDE NOTE
Although double shielded RG-6 coax cable would do better most that I have found do not have a solid copper core. As I was told that the signal travels around the circumference not inside. Regardless if you have solid copper core or not It is extremely important to check your cable connections to make sure the exposed copper wire does not have any marks or nicks around the circumference! If any are found there is a 100% chance you are not receiving the best picture possible. It is a MUST to cut the wire just below the connection, then buy $10-$18 "plastic" 2-Blade rotary coaxial cable stripper to properly strip it, place a coax connector then screw it back on your TV (This is intended for coax cable installed by your cable company. Monster coax cable and such are not part of this side note).
The Home Experience Voltage
When I first turn plugged this unit in Voltage was at 125V and did drop to about 115 volts using appliances in the kitchen. I did notice voltage as high as 125 volts until I turn the TV on then it would drop to 120 volts. I also have my computer, DSL and 18" monitor hooked up to the HTS 5000 and it remains 120 volts with the TV on! I did not notice anything better with the computer DSL or monitor.

It is sexy, but functionally... well

Reviewed in the United States on May 13, 2006

For the past several years, Monster has been selling "premium" cables and now power centers. The main complaint people have is they think the product is based more on hype than any science. I bought the HTS 5000 to go with my 47" Panasonic plasma TV, because I wanted to splurge a little. The HTS 5000 works great as a power strip (with switchable AC plugs), and it has a really sexy front panel (with analog gauge). Bottom line is that it works, but does it clean up video or offer anything more than a much chaper power strip... I honestly don't think so. But hey, those cheaper strips don't look nearly as cool with my DVD stacked on top. If you have the money, go for it. You'll like the looks, and it works fine. But if you're tight on funds, consider spending your money on better electronics (TV, DVD, stereo, etc.). I think you'll get more return on your investment.
