WARNING: The AVS 2000 Pro should not be exposed to dripping or
splashing and that no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall not be
placed on or near the apparatus.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose
this apparatus to rain or moisture.
EXPLANATION OF GRAPHICAL SYMBOLS:
The lightning flash with the arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle,
is intended to alert the user to the presence of un-insulated “dangerous voltage”
within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute
a risk of electric shock to an individual.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user
to the presence of important operating and maintenance instructions in the literature
accompanying the unit.
This symbol represents a portable cart warning. Do not place the AVS 2000 PRO
on an unstable platform that will result in injury.
CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF
ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT REMOVE COVER
(OR BACK). NO USER-SERVICEABLE PARTS

MONSTEROUS INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the Monster Power Professional Reference Automatic Voltage Stabilizer™AVS 2000 PRO.
The AVS 2000 PRO is designed to stabilize power line fluctuations and maintain constant voltage
to your professional components.
Voltage sags (below the standard RMS value of 120 volts) are often caused by power- hungry devices which
draw more power (over 1800 watts) than your studio was designed to support. This can have a direct effect
on professional studio components, including amplifiers which require high power levels to operate
at optimum performance level.
As a result, sound can lose tone and clarity. Amplifiers change gain structure resulting in easy-to-hear distortions.
They also won't deliver peak power, dropping from 100 watts to as low as 60 watts! Your professional gear
is very power hungry, too, often drawing twice as much power as a computer and other high power analog
components combined. This causes even more voltage sags and ultimately compromised studio gear performance.
With the AVS 2000 PRO, all your high power devices will maintain the stability needed to deliver peak power
and performance. You’ll enjoy the smoothest, most natural sound and tone. And, thanks to AVS 2000 PRO’s
sequential turn-on feature, your high power loads can operate at peak performance without causing
unnecessary electrical stress that can often pop a circuit breaker or damage your components.

!
Demian Martin –Demian Martin has been solving complex AC power problems for several
years. As a technical consultant for successful paper and steel mills, Demian helped create
several innovative solutions for their power problems. He developed techniques that dramatically
improved the efficiency of high power motor control systems –as much as 50,000 watts
each – helping these companies avoid costly premiums many factories must pay for AC power
inefficiency. He now brings his expertise to Monster Power’s elite research and development team.

Noel Lee –The Head Monster is best known for popularizing the concept of high performance
audio cable over 20 years ago with his creation of Monster Cable. Originally a laser-fusion
design engineer at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, and later a touring musician, Noel
has invented or co-invented over 125 U.S. and international patents and drives the explosive
growth of The Monster Group into more than 80 countries worldwide. Monster Power
is his realization of a long nurtured vision of creating affordable power solutions delivering
the best possible sound and picture.
