    Heads up to anyone buying a Monster unit because they're cheaper than Panamax: They limit current to amps even though they are marked with amp specific outlets. Panamax units do not limit current, as they've removed the capacitors to those amp specific outlets for that purpose. Monster, in my humble opinion, isn't preeminent in anything they offer. They do too much, speading their resources thin. It's usually better to go with a company that focuses on one type of component exclusively, like Panamax or Richard Gray for line conditioners. Just my opinion.
