Monster's Performance-Enhancing Solution for Music Professionals.
Since 1979, Monster has provided high performance instrument and speaker cables to performing musicians and recording professionals around the world. In 1998, we introduced Monster Power, a complete line of affordable, audiophile-grade PowerCenters that provided better sound, and complete protection against electrical surges and spikes. Robert Harley and The Absolute Sound magazine said it best: “In my ten years as a reviewer, I’ve never heard as dramatic an improvement in sound quality for so little money as that rendered by Monster Power’s Home Theatre PowerCenter HTS 2000.” Now, Monster has created a new line of Professional Power Centers for the musician, studio owner, installer, and backline tech. The PowerCenter PRO 2500 reflects Monster’s commitment to creating performance-enhancing solutions for music professionals.
More Than a Surge Protector
Ordinary AC power accessories don’t increase the performance of the equipment they power. The PowerCenter’s advanced technology and innovative design offers several patented convenience and performance features.
While the new PowerCenter also does an excellent job of protecting equipment from harmful power surges, its main performance benefit is much more than just surge protection. Our patented Clean Power filter circuitry (U.S. Pat. No. 6,473,510 B1) virtually stops noise that goes right through ordinary surge protectors.
Revolutionary Separate Noise Isolation Filtered Outlets
And since there is more than one type of noise that can degrade connected equipment, the PowerCenter features revolutionary separate noise isolation between digital and analog filtered outlets. If any noise from components sharing the power line gets through one Clean Power filter, it will have to go through another filter to get to an adjacent set of outlets. The result is an extremely low noise floor without hum or buzz that allows all of the rich harmonics and tone to come through your performance.
As fellow musicians and audiophiles, Monster designed the PowerCenter to help achieve the best possible sound.

What We Think
This is the one we personally use, and appreciate its low price but good performance. It’s quiet, rack mountable, and throws plenty of juice for all of our gear. We love the staged on/off design; frankly, we got sick of turning everything on and off one at a time! The 3500 is a good piece to have.
