APPENDIX A
Glossary of Power-Related Terms  
AC: Alternating Current.
Amp: An abbreviation for Ampere, a unit of electrical current or the rate of flow of electrons.
Balanced Mode: Noise Reduction with Clean Power Stage 5 filtering and a transformer configuration that
references ground. Benefits include CMR (see below) for ultra-clean audio playback. May not, however, effectively
rid A/V systems of hum, buzz, vertical or horizontal lines on a video projector, CRT or Plasma display.
Clean Power
Exclusive Monster noise filtering. Attenuates unwanted interference caused by RFI, EMI,
and internal component-generated noise.
CMR: An abbreviation for Common Mode Rejection. A technique using a fully-differential balanced power
transformer configuration in the PRO7000 PowerSource for cancelling noise on the AC power line.
CSA: An abbreviation for Canadian Standards Association. CSA has developed over 200 standards, including
several for electrical and electronic products.
Current: The movement of electrons through a conductor.
DC: Direct Current.
Digital Noise: Electrical disturbances created by radiated high-frequency energy common to many digital circuits.
EMI: Electromagnetic Interference. Power line distortion caused by turn-on transients of various appliances
and components that contribute to a degradation in performance of your A/V system.
Filter: A selective network of resistors, inductors, or capacitors which offers comparatively little resistance 
at certain frequencies, while blocking or attenuating other frequencies.
Ground: A point in an electrical system that references the AC power company’s unbalanced neutral ground 
wire return.
