Home/Business Theater
Home theater component technology has continued to improve with the introduction of high-definition TVs, 7.1 surround sound systems, PVR/DVR/TiVo® recorders, media centers/servers and game consoles such as Microsoft® Xbox™ and Nintendo® Wii™. The same can be said for business theater components such as DLP/LCD projectors and state-of-the-art sound systems. Plus, with so much entertainment to offer, home theaters have become the family gathering place and focal point of most homes. As a result, the need to protect these valuable investments and ensure they perform at their peak is in high demand.

Home/Business Theater Systems Need Power Protection
Without a reliable source of backup power, even the most expensive and well-designed home/business theater systems will fall silent and dark when a blackout strikes. When a blackout strikes, HD cable/HD satellite receivers freeze up, and PVRs/DVRs stop recording, causing lost programming. More costs are incurred when cooling fans stop working, causing potential DLP/LCD bulb burnout. In addition, every system connection presents a potential conduit through which damaging surges can strike. The combination of blackouts, brownouts, surges and line noise can cause equipment damage and degradation of components and performance over time, leading to costly component repair or replacement.
Power problems can be fatal!
When it comes to sensitive audio and video equipment, a single surge may result in damage
that cannot be repaired.
Power problems can affect what you see and hear!
Power problems can degrade the performance and shorten the lifespan of audio and video equipment.
