The Minds Behind The Monster Powercenter Design - Monster Power HTS1650MP Owner's Manual

MOnSTeR'S PaTenTeD Clean POWeR
Monster Clean Power performs two tasks that are vital to maintaining optimum home theater performance:
1) noise filtration and 2) noise isolation . The higher the Clean Power stage number (1-5), the more sophisticated
and advanced the filters are that reject noise generated on the AC powerline . In addition, the higher the Clean Power stage
number, the more isolation that exists between connected equipment for maximum rejection of component-generated noise .
Monster PowerCenters featuring Clean Power circuitry are each designated with a Clean Power Stage . The HTS 1650 MP
incorporates Monster Clean Power Stage 2 v.2.1 circuitry which filters both AC powerline noise and reduces noise generated
by your connected equipment . Clean Power Stage 2 features two ultra-advanced, isolated filters that include analog audio
and digital, plus an ultra-high current audio filter to provide for the best possible AC powerline noise rejection and
inter-component isolation for improved component-generated noise rejection . All of these features make the HTS 1650 MP
ideal for your home theater system . To learn more about patented Monster Clean Power and the complete product family

Richard Marsh – There are few experts able to solve the complex problems associated with AC power
and complex home theater systems . Richard Marsh is one of these illustrious few . He has designed best
selling power conditioning components costing more than $3,000 US and now brings his expertise
to Monster Power . Richard developed Monster's patented Clean Power
many of Monster's PowerCenters . He is also responsible for several other groundbreaking designs . Richard's
background and research into amplifier and capacitor design led to his development of the Servo-DC feedback
concept in power amplifiers – a concept that is used by virtually every amplifier manufacturer today . His status
as both the inventor of the MultiCap internal bypass capacitor and as the driving force behind the high-end
™
audio balanced circuit design concept has influenced the audiophile community for years . Richard
is responsible for some of the high-end audio world's most respected product designs, essays and articles,
and has contributed to The Absolute Sound and Audio magazines . He is included in Who's Who in the West .
Demian Martin – Demian Martin has been solving complex AC power problems for several years .
As a technical consultant for successful paper and steel mills, Demian helped create several innovative AC
power solutions . He developed techniques to dramatically improve the efficiency of these factories' high power
motor control systems – up to 50,000 watts — helping them avoid the costly premiums many factories must
pay for AC power inefficiency . Demian was also the co-founder of Spectral Audio and was the chief designer
of their many pioneering designs for amplifiers, D/A converters, and other high-end audio designs . He now
brings his expertise to Monster Power's elite research and development team .
noel lee – Noel Lee, The Head Monster, is best known for popularizing the concept of high performance
audio cable 25 years ago with his creation of Monster Cable . Originally a laser-fusion design engineer
at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and later a touring musician, Noel has invented or co-invented
over 250 U .S . and international patents and drives the explosive growth of The Monster Group companies
in more than 80 countries worldwide . Monster Power is Noel's realization of a long-nurtured vision of making
