If you’re not sure if your home’s electrical wiring is properly grounded, have it checked by a qualified electrician. ® Many older buildings are inadequately wired. It’s very common for a building to be improperly grounded. Building wiring and grounding must conform to applicable NEC (USA) or CEC (Canada) codes for the Limited Connected Equipment Warranty to be valid. If you’re not sure about your home’s wiring, have it checked by a qualified electrician. Note to CATV Installer This reminder is provided to call the CATV System Installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that provides specific guidelines for proper grounding and in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the point of cable entry as practical. IMPORTANT NOTE – Proper Power and Protection To completely protect your equipment against electrical surges, every AC power cable, coaxial cable and phone line in the system must be connected to an appropriate PowerBar. IMPORTANT NOTE – Proper Protection and the Limited Connected Equipment Warranty The Limited Connected Equipment Warranty becomes invalid if any wire (AC, coax, or phone), audio or video interconnect leading into the equipment comes from a component that is not properly protected by the PowerBar. See the Warranty Information section of this owner’s manual for important details. iii A NOTE FROM THE HEAD MONSTER Dear Enthusiast, THANK YOU for purchasing the Monster Power Home Theatre Reference PowerBar®. This PowerBar reflects our commitment to creating performance-enhancing solutions for home theatre systems, so you can enjoy superior sound and picture quality. As a long-time audiophile and serious home theater enthusiast, I always knew problematic AC power could degrade picture and sound quality. Unfortunately, ordinary AC power accessories can compromise the performance of the components they power. So, I decided to address the issue. And, with the help of Richard Marsh and other power experts, Monster Power was born. This PowerBar’s advanced technology and innovative design provides several unique performance and convenience features. Here are the highlights… Noel Lee The Monster PowerBar does an excellent job of protecting your components from harmful power surges, but it’s benefits include much more than just surge protection. The patented Monster Clean Power™ filter circuitry virtually stops the electromagnetic and radio frequency noise that goes right through typical surge protectors which can degrade sound and picture quality. In addition, your PowerBar also features patented noise isolation circuits that separate analog audio and video outlets. The result is high quality sound and picture that’s free from performance-damaging interference. 1 Other Monster Power breakthroughs include patented Tri-Mode™ protection featuring an audible alarm. This feature automatically disconnects power from your electronics if you’re hit by a big surge. We’ve also included surge-protected coax and phone connections to ensure protection for all of your components. The PowerBar also features a patent pending color-coding system, which identifies where each component should be connected. These days, home theater components are better than ever, providing thrilling and dramatic sound and razor sharp picture. We know your new PowerBar will help bring it all together with Clean Power and superior system protection. With Monster Power, you’ll enjoy the best possible sound and picture. And that’s what home theater is all about. Noel Lee, The Head Monster 2 MONSTER’S PATENTED CLEAN POWER™ STAGES Monster Clean Power performs two tasks that are vital to maintaining optimum home theater performance: 1) noise filtration and 2) noise isolation. The higher the Clean Power stage number (1-5), the more sophisticated and advanced the filters are that reject noise generated on the AC powerline. In addition, the higher the Clean Power stage number, the more isolation that exists between connected equipment for maximum rejection of component-generated noise. Monster PowerBars featuring Clean Power circuitry are each designated with a Clean Power Stage. The PowerBar incorporates Monster Clean Power Stage 2 circuitry which filters both AC powerline noise and reduces noise generated by your connected equipment. For example, your television generates video noise which is different than the analog noise your AV receiver generates. Clean Power Stage 2 features two ultra-advanced, isolated filters (audio and video) to provide for the best possible AC powerline noise rejection and inter-component isolation for improved component-generated noise rejection. All of these features make the PowerBar ideal for your home theater system.
