need some feedback from users of the this power center...got it today, hooked it up and everything powered up ok, but the "Clean Power" led on the front display does not light up? i tried using another wall outlet with the same results, anyone experience this? i read the manual but it does not cover this in the troubleshooting section, maybe a burnt LED?

also i had this problem with my other power surge with coaxial in/output but thought maybe the power center could remedy it, if i go with the coaxial cable to the power center IN then OUT to the cable box, some of my HD channels come in scrambled? i had a similar problem last year with the cheaper surge and comcast guy said under no circumstance should you run the cable to a surge, always directly to the box? anyone have success running thru the power center/surge?

    Kind of defeats the purpose of protecting the cable/satellite signal coming in, doesn't it? Have you called Monster customer service per chance? That would be a good thing to do as well.

    I just yesterday hooked up Monster 2600II to my system and ran Direct HDTV coax cables through power center and everything is great,no signal loss,no picture problem,I am very satisfied so far.I was not told by Direct not to run coax through power center.Just a side note I just changed to Direct from Comcast and I ran my cable coax through surge suppressor with no problem.

      spoke to Monster via email, according to them, not having the LED on does not effect the filtering
