Works great - less than a third of the price for the same item in the stores.
Monster Cable HTS-400 surge protector 
2007-08-23
Product works great. Compact design. Would be nice if it had some sort of mounting bracket, so that it could be mounted vertically, like on a wall. I would recommend this product.

About two years ago lightening hit my phone line and destroyed everything that wasn't protected. My computer was connected through a Belkin Surgemaster and was spared. My satellite receiver was fried and the surge fed back out to the dish and also fried the LNB. After that I purchased an HTS 400 because besides the electrical connections, it also has phone line and satellite cable protection. I only gave it 4 stars because I couldn't see a difference in my TV reception. Last week I had an electrical malfunction which sent 240 through two circuits in my house. The HTS 400 was sacrificed but everything connected was spared. I will be getting a replacement for it but this time I'll get it from Amazon for half the price that I paid for the first one at Best Buy.
Great surge protector

Nice, sturdy design. Doesn't flip on its side like narrow surge protectors do, and it has a nice long cord so it can be positioned around your entertainment center wherever you want it. Also, plugs are color coded to make it easier to figure out which cord is what.
Good entry-level surge protector from Monster

I originally bought this product 2 yrs ago, when I purchased a new & expensive HDTV for the home. I thought it was a good "starter" unit, which included more than enough power and coaxial outlets. In fact, I would even argue that it has too many coaxial outlets--I mean, who really uses CATV, satellite, AND VHF/UHF? Anyway, more recently, I purchased the MTS400 again for a relative, who also upgraded to an HDTV set.
From a technical perspective, it's hard to say whether the Monster Clean Power(tm) Stage 1 v2.0 filter is really making a difference in providing "noise-free power to [my] sensitive electronic components." I'm not an engineer by training, so I'll have to take Monster's word at it and assume it's not some cheap gimmick. Also, I suppose the "high level of surge protection" advertised by Monster is not really one of those claims you can verify until after the fact. However, if my house ever gets hit by a freak electrical storm, I'll let you know how the HTS400 stands up.
Overall, I'm quite satisfied with this product (thus far...).
Great Product

The HTS400 features color-coded outlets and cord labels, so you won't accidentally unplug the wrong component like a VCR, for example, and are forced to reset the blinking clock. A generous eight-foot power cord allows easy reach to your electrical outlets. 24k gold contacts provide maximum power transfer and corrosion resistance. Monster's FlatProfile plug lets you push your furniture flush against the wall. Multiple SurgeGuard protects components from harmful surges and spikes.Harmful power surges and voltage spikes can travel up the AC power line and damage connected equipment. Lightning, automatic garage doors, power tools, refrigerators and fluorescent lights all cause power surges and voltage spikes that effect phone lines and coax cables. Monster's Surge-Guard detects harmful power surges and voltage spikes before they reach components. This HTS400 also features special surge protection for coax cables used for DSS and cable TV connections. Other surge protectors can result in as much as 20 to 30 dB of signal loss, which ultimately affects the output performance of coax connections. Monster's ultra-low loss RF circuitry provides virtually no signal loss to maintain peak performance. Best of all, an audible surge alarm and visual surge indicator warn you of harmful surges and let you know you're getting the most advanced protection available.

Monster Cable MP HTS400

I can rest assured that my new HDTV is being protected. I like this surge protector because it protects both my cable and antenna coaxial connections. It has antenna, cable, and satellite coax protection circuits which I like a lot. Just look at the technical details on this site.
The reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because I am sick and tired of everything being manufactured in China. I prefer to buy things that are made in the USA but that is getting almost impossible to do these days.
