Eliminate Power Threats

Home electronics cost a lot of money, so it's smart to protect your investment with the APC 15 Amp-rated C5 Power Filter. The very real danger of power surges can wipe out valuable information and systems, which means your home theater, computer, and other electronics are at risk. Stop relying on cheap power strips. Instead, use a the single component that eliminates all power threats to your high performance A/V system.

What Power Filtering Can Do For You

APC's C5 Power Filter gives you 10 surge-protected and filtered outlets. Four of these outlets have EMI/RFI noise filtering for digital devices such as HDTVs, DVRs, and DVD players. There are also two analog, two video, and two high current (amplifiers, subwoofers) filtered outlets. Component-specific noise filtering banks prevent video and audio signal distortion. You also get surge protection and isolated noise filtering. Power filtering is a much-needed solution that eliminates stress on component power supplies, eradicates EMI/RFI and voltage fluctuation as a source of AV signal degradation, and protects equipment from damaging surges, spikes voltages, and lightning. If you live in a place where electrical noise and radio frequency interference is severe enough to affect picture and sound quality, this APC filter can improve your cinematic experience by allowing the equipment to perform to its maximum capabilities. Inductorless filtering for high current components is also included.

Maybe You Should Think About Battery Backup

One blip in your power can be ruinous. If there's a surge or even momentary outage, you can lose practically your entire home theater set-up. Your onscreen electronic program guide can disappear, your DVR hard drive can be lost; and because fans stop running to cool them, expensive front projector lamps can overheat and blow out. This applies to rear projector TV lamps as well. Plus, all that invaluable custom programming the installer did will get wiped out and send you back to the factory presets, requiring another install. Not only is your home theater at risk, but so are music systems and computer hard drives. Only an uninterruptable power supply (UPS) with a battery backup can protect you from power outages. APC C Type Power Filters like this C5 don't have battery backup; but J Types and S Types do, and those models are also available right here at Vann's.
