About the HTS 3500

The Monster Cable HTS 3500 (MKII) is a professional-grade power conditioner and surge protector designed for home theater and HiFi systems. It features Monster Clean Power Stage 3 filters optimized for digital, high-current audio, and video applications, providing cleaner power to reduce noise and improve sound and picture quality. Key benefits include richer bass, better black levels, and shadow detail in video, as noted in user reviews. It offers robust surge protection with a high joule rating, coax and phone line protection, a 12V trigger for remote control, and a voltage meter for monitoring AC fluctuations. The unit includes 10 AC outlets (typically 4 switched, 6 unswitched), three coaxial connections, one phone connection with splitter, sequenced power turn-on/off, and an 8 ft. Monster PowerLine cord. Backed by a 5-year warranty and connected equipment protection. Highly regarded for build quality, ergonomics, and performance in its price class around 1999-2005, though discontinued and available used.
