I've never heard of that brand...

I have a monster HTS2600, look into one of those... since monster will actually pay if your shit gets destroyed.

monster is way overpriced and this does have a"NO FINE PRINT" contract with a $ 25000 guarantee .. very good reviews on pcmag, HT forums and monprice.. Ill never buy monster after there lawsuit, and WAYYYY to overpriced my HDMI S i bout of monoprice were just as good if not BETTER than the monster 1000 hdmis i had. thicker, better connection and way cheaper...how much ?? $11 .. monster , what 150?

But enough monster "rant" down to 2 VERY highly rated power filters/ surge protectors

The link you listed is a UPS although it also surge protects they are two different things. I agree Monster is overpriced I like using Cyberpower they are inexpensive and make a great reliable product.

thanks for the replies guys, the reason i narrowed it down to those 2 was because im just looking for excellent picture and sound quality with a good surge protector .. and those 2 have excellent emi/rfi filters... i already have a $30 power strip but i just want a lil more considering ( including my computer, ) im going to have about $8,000 in electronics hooked up so i just dont want to take any chances.. So i searched for about a week to try and find a few of the best for under $200 bucks .. AVS and HT forums along with monoprice rated these 2 very high, so i was just looking for more opinions cuz i know there are some good HT guys in here

1 step down from the APC i was looking at is this, only $75 new on amazon, not bad at all either
