Ditto. If you're not in a big hurry, watch their prices for a few weeks. I caught mine on sale from eCost for like $130 a couple of years ago.

Yeah, the eCost sale... I think that's when I got mine, too!

The black ones were always more expensive than the silver ones IIRC.

I just tried to search for the thread, but really, I can't make the search useable....!

Hey guys, sorry for the newbie ?, but I have done a little research and find a lot of my findings confusing. I was interested in power centers when I was building my new room, but I had a Monster HTS1000 I bought a couple years ago, and I continue to use. Can you guys help me better understand the pro's of going with a unit like the Belkin or other similar products. They obviously look much better than a power strip, but what can they do my glorified power strip does not? Thanks. GO BLACKHAWKS!

Brian I do not know what your 1000 is capable of but the PF 60 has delayable outlets for amplifiers and other items that you want to have turned on after your pre/pro or AVR. The PF60 also has a nice display that tells you what each block/section on the back is drawing for power or it can tell you the total draw. It also displays the current input voltage. I have seen mine drop form 121V to 105V and then back in an instance. I am sure I must be forgetting a couple other features that I don't use as well. \:\)

Thanks Jay, the 1000 has a voltage display, but does not offer delayed power options for other components. I have not had any issues or concerns with the product; I guess I'm a bit lucky as we never(knock on wood) lose power during storms. I never get any humming, line noise, or picture quality issues, so I guess I have no apparent safety/protection reason to purchase one at this time.
