FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Q. What is the importance of component-to-component filtering?

A. With Monster PowerSource technology, AC power must first go through a segment of noise filters, which isolates your equipment from noise on the AC line. Most other manufacturers' battles against line noise stop there. The next crucial step of filtering must occur between components. Our patent-pending component-to-component noise filtering is one of the PowerSource's incredibly innovative features because it protects components from degrading each others performance via their own special brand of interference. The PowerSource outlets are all directly connected, so the noise that's generated by a particularly noisy component (digital components like CD players are infamous for this) will attempt to get into other connected equipment. It will not succeed, however, because it must go through specialized filters to get to an adjacent outlet, and the noise is eliminated for the best possible sound and picture.

Q. Does it matter which outlets I plug my components into?

A. Yes. Each group of outlets is specially designed to protect and maximize performance of ONLY the components they’re intended to power. For example, a power amplifier is a high-current device and has a special high current audio filter that allows for the greater power requirement and still reduces noise from the AC power line. A VCR is not a high current device, like an amplifier, and the filter used with video products like this one reduces a wider band of noise that is specific to video products. In summary, each type of component receives separate noise filtering to accommodate the inherent needs and differences.
