Question

Answer

 

 

 

 

 

What is the importance of

With Monster PowerCenter technology, AC power is improved by noise filtering that isolates

 

component-to-component

your equipment from interference riding the AC line. Most other manufacturers just stop

 

filtering?

there, but Monster keeps going! The next crucial step of filtering occurs between connected

 

 

components. Our patent-pending component-to-component noise filtering is one of the most

 

 

innovative features of the PowerCenter — it protects internally generated equipment noise

 

 

from “reaching out” and degrading the performance of other equipment! An inherently

 

 

noisy component like a computer won’t radiate digital noise into other connected equipment

 

 

because the noise is eliminated with specialized filters that separate adjacent outlets.

 

 

Eliminating noise from the AC power line and from various system components yields

 

 

the best possible sound.

 

 

 

 

 

Does it matter into

For the most part, yes. Each group of outlets is specially designed to protect and maximize

 

which outlets I plug

performance of the components they’re intended to power. For example, a power amplifier

 

my components?

is a high-current device and has a special PowerCenter audio filter that allows for greater

 

 

power transfer while reducing noise from the AC power line. A digital signal processor is

 

 

not a high-current device so its filter attenuates a wider band of noise specific to digital

 

 

components. It won’t hurt plugging digital components into high current outlets, or analog

 

 

into video outlets, but for maximum performance, each class of component makes best use

 

 

of the specialized noise filtering based on their inherent needs and differences.
