<font color='#000000'>If the electrical system in your home is in good shape then products like the HTS5100 will not make much of a difference. I have the HTS3600 and I could not hear an audible difference vs. plugging directly into my wall socket. I kept the HTS3600 mainly for aesthetics and for the fact that it slightly cleaned up my cable signal.
Look at the Isobar stuff from Tripplite for a cheaper alternative.</font>
