This is ONE Monster product I DO recommend....the CleanPower DOES help smooth out AC ripple and reduce EMI and (some) RFI.....BUT....I myself use APC UPS devices on ALL my equipment -- HDTV, home theatre, PCs, etc. -- they're somewhat less expensive (go to APC's Outlet Store....
) and, IMHO, do an equally good job of protecting my investments.....
The way I look at it....if I'm gonna pay $1000s for "toys" I sure as heck don't mind swinging an extra $100 or so to protect them.....Good luck!
And.....yes....DO STAY WAY AWAY from M****** cables!!! The only thing they'll "clean up" .....is your WALLET!! For cables....go with Monoprice.com -- there are MANY on these fora who use them and are VERY pleased with their quality, price and service!!
