"Gets the job done"
When I set up my home theater, I wanted surge protection and line filtering at a reasonable cost. You can spend a few bucks on an el cheapo power strip, or $$$ on a Monster product with exaggerated product claims. The Tripp Lite offered a good cost/performance ratio. So far it has done the job well. My theater equipment setup is crammed with cables and wires running all over, with no perceptable noise problems.

It is easy to go insane on AV equipment (there is a shop near me that sells speaker wire for $8 a foot). If spending more will give you satisfaction, go ahead. But, if you want protection and quality at a good value, I recommend the Tripp Lite.

"does what it says I think"
A surge protector is something you find out about after a bolt of lightning takes it out ( i would guess) Anyway, it has lots of outlets, and lights, and Makes me feel better protected, and if they stand behind their 100,000 dollar replacement claim , if I ever do get hit. I'll be impressed even more.

"One of the Best Surge Protectors for Home Theater"
This product is easy to use. The Tripp Lite comes backed with an exceptional warranty as well. I compared this product with my original purchase (a Monster Cable Powersource) and found this to be the better option. It has the Surge protection that is needed, but not the line conditioner that the salesmen hype and that you really do not need. Also, it is a fraction of the Powersource price(500 vs 100).

"AWESOME...SAVED My HDTV!!!"
While researching big screen HDTV's, I learned that you should have a good quality surge suppressor and line conditioner for the best possible picture. I purchased the Tipp Lite HTPOWERBAR 10 on Amazon prior to the delivery of my HDTV. This model has all the bells and whistles at a great price. I have priced similar products for $45 to $75 more.

I have had surge suppressors for all my audio video and computer equipment for over 25 years. Once everything is plugged in, you forget it is even there. However, during the first week in December 2006, we had a severe Ice Storm in the Midwest. We were without power for several days. Later in the week, after the power was restored, we had a broken neutral that caused a large power spike. The power surge blew out all the surge suppressors, some light bulbs, and a few electrial items that were plugged-in. The power surge made it through the surge suppressor(other brand name) for my computer and fried my computer. The Tripp lite HTPOWERBAR10 took the hit as well, but my HDTV survived.

But, that's not what impressed me the most about this product. I was really impressed when I called Tripp Lite about the incident. They ask about the equipment that was plugged into the HTPOWERBAR10, then took my name and address and mailed out a new HTPOWERBAR10. Received in the mail 2 days later. The HTPOWERBAR10 took the power hit and did not let the surge go any further. I wish I had all my equipment plugged-in to Tripp Lite products. I also, just purchased a smaller unit(Tripp Lite brand)for my new computer. Don't let your expebnsive audio/video or computer equipment go unprotected! Best investment you can make for the safety of your electronic equipment!!!!!!
