I have been using this for my entertainment system for a few years now.  I will say that some of the labels on here are a little dated.  Seriously who still has a VCR hooked up to their TV?  At the same time the labels help me keep track of what I'm plugging in to which outlet.  This makes it easy if I need to unplug something.  I've never needed the surge protection, and I hope I never do, but I would rather be safe than sorry, and Monster Cable tends to make high quality products.
