THE MINDS BEHIND THE MONSTER POWERCENTER DESIGN

Richard Marsh

 – There are few experts able to solve the complex problems associated with 

AC power and complex home theater systems. Richard Marsh is one of these illustrious few. 
He has designed best selling power conditioning components costing more than $3,000 US and 
now brings his expertise to Monster Power. Richard developed Monster’s patented Clean Power

 

circuitry. He is also responsible for several other groundbreaking designs. Richard’s background 
and research into amplifier and capacitor design led to his development of the Servo-DC feedback 
concept in power amplifiers – a concept that is used by virtually every amplifier manufacturer 
today. His status as both the inventor of the MultiCap

 internal bypass capacitor and as the driving 

force behind the high-end audio balanced circuit design concept has influenced the audiophile 
community for years. Richard is responsible for some of the high-end audio world’s most respected 
product designs, essays and articles, and has contributed to 

The Absolute Sound and Audio 

magazines. He is included in 

Who’s Who in the West.

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 AC power solutions. He developed techniques to dramatically improve the efficiency of 
these factories’ high power motor control systems

 

 

up to 50,000 watts — helping them avoid 

the costly premiums many factories must pay for AC power inefficiency. Demian was also the 
co-founder of Spectral Audio and was the chief designer of their many pioneering designs for 
amplifiers, D/A converters, and other high-end audio designs. He now brings his expertise  
to Monster Power’s elite research and development team.
