With its aluminum extruded exterior and rubberized ABS endcaps
the PRO 1000 is rugged, road-ready and built to deliver clean, safe
power no matter where your music takes you. You’ll really appreciate
its 10-ft long, extra heavy duty, shielded power cord—it’s length lets
you place the PRO 1000 wherever shared power is needed most,
and the cord can be conveniently wound around the unit’s end caps
for trip-and tangle-free portability.
The three-prong plug, which features 24-karat gold-plated contacts
for maximum, instantaneous power transfer, can be snapped onto
the power cord when you’re ready to pick up and go.
Clean power, clean sound, complete protection and total
convenience for all professional audio applications. Just like you expect
in a Monster Power product . . . because you get more of everything
from the Monster.

INTRODUCTION
POWERCENTER PRO 1000 FEATURES
1. ON/OFF Switch: This switch turns the PRO 1000 on and off.
The switch lights up when turned to the “ON” position, providing
power to components plugged into the switched outlets. Pressing
the switch to the “OFF” position shuts off power. This switch
also acts as the reset for the PRO 1000’s 15-amp thermal
breaker, which automatically cuts off power to protect connected
components from overload situations.
2. GROUND OK Indicator: Indicates the wall outlet
that the PRO 1000 is plugged into is properly grounded.
3. PROTECTION ON Indicator: Indicates the PRO 1000’s
internal surge protection is active.
4. WIRING FAULT Indicator: Indicates that a wall outlet
is incorrectly wired.
5. High Current Filtered Outlets: These outlets are intended
for power-hungry devices like amplifiers and powered monitors
that require high amounts of current for optimal performance.
6. Analog Filtered Outlets: These outlets have a special
filter circuit that reduces audible noise in your analog musical
and professional audio components.
7. Digital Filtered Outlets: These outlets have a special filter
circuit that reduces audible interference in your digital musical
and professional audio components.
8. Current and Voltage Availability LED Bar Graph Meters:
These LED meters provide constant status regarding
the quality and stability of the power coming from
the wall outlet to your PRO 1000.
9. Extra heavy duty, 10ft. shielded power cord:
This power cord’s extra length enables flexible placement
of the PRO 1000 to reach inconveniently located wall outlets.
The cord’s rugged heavy duty, shielded construction protects
it from damage while also rejecting RF interference.
The cord can be conveniently wrapped around the unit’s
end caps for easy storage.
10. Gold-plated, three-prong plug: This plug features
24k gold-plated contacts for maximum power transfer.
It can be snapped onto the power cord.
11. Rubberized ABS-Plastic End Caps: These end caps
enhance the PRO 1000’s durable chassis. The unit’s power
cord can be wound around the end caps.
12. Aluminum Extruded Exterior: This rugged chassis
provides a high level of protection and stability when used
in its intended operational environment.

INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing Monster’s PRO 1000 PowerCenter.
The PRO 1000 proudly reflects Monster’s unwavering commitment
to creating the ultimate performance-enhancing solutions
for professional audio applications, giving you superior component
operation, the highest audio quality, and the best protection
for your precious equipment and instruments.
Ideal for high quality performance environments and studios,
the PRO 1000’s patented Clean Power ™ Stage 2 filter circuitry virtually
eliminates the noise that goes right through typical surge protectors.
Two isolated filters, optimized for analog and digital equipment,
provide excellent AC power line noise rejection and isolation
of analog gear from digital components for improved component-
generated noise rejection, leaving you with more natural tone, increased
dynamic range and none of the “dirty” AC-induced gremlins that would
otherwise interfere with the way you and your gear perform.
The PRO 1000 features four digital outlets and two analog outlets,
as well as two high-current filtered outlets that provide power-hungry
amplifiers with the power they need to operate with maximum
headroom, the best transient response and the clearest tone.
The PRO 1000 is equipped with Monster’s fast acting, high-capacity
2775 Joule, Multiple SurgeGuard ™ and Dual-Mode Plus Protection
Circuitry, which instantly detects any voltage surge or spike,
immediately suppresses it before it can reach your gear, and will emit
an audible alarm to let you know if surge suppression occurred.
The PRO 1000’s two separate LED bar graph meters (“Voltage
Availability,” “Current Draw”) and three indicator LEDs
(“Protection On,” “Ground OK,” “Wiring Fault”) report the status
of the power coming from your wall outlet and alert you if there
are problems. All eight of the PRO 1000’s switched AC power outlets
are widely spaced to accommodate bulky “wall wart”adapters,
and the unit’s illuminated power switch also serves double duty
as a 15-amp thermal breaker, providing a convenient reset
for those instances where the PRO 1000 automatically cuts off power
to protect your gear.
