AUDIO-ULTRA’S POWER FOUNDATION AND AC POWER SOLUTIONS
The driving force behind superb HIFI system performance is AC Power. The Audio Ultra AC Power Foundation guards your system from power anomalies, delivers near-perfect sonic clarity via a super-low noise floor, and ensures system performance is unhindered by ground loops and dynamic suppression.
With the encouragement of numerous product designers and electrical engineers, we created Audio Ultra AC power solutions that deliver unrestricted incoming AC power, guard against electrically caused damage and wear, and enable HIFI components to achieve their ultimate potential.
“The before/after difference was beyond anything I had imagined… The result was top-to-bottom background blackness even with an ear pressed to the tweeter (other than the slight, ever-present hiss that comes from the darTZeel NHB-18NS preamp). When the noise floor fell away, dynamics greatly improved, and the musical presentation seemed to explode from the speakers with unusual ease, leaving in its wake just plain black.”
– Michael Fremer, Stereophile, “The Electrical Cure”
The Three Pillars of the Audio-Ultra Power Foundation are Optimization, Prevention, and Protection.
Optimization: Optimization includes Audio-Ultra supervision to ensure correct installation of your choice of power panels.
Prevention and Protection: The mechanical and electronic systems in your home induce transients (noise) that directly affect the performance and resolution of audio systems. These transients, which are harmful over time, reduce the operational life of all electronics and mechanical products.
Power surges can destroy your favorite electronics quicker than the snap of a finger. For these reasons, we highly recommend surge protection in conjunction with installing an Environmental Protections EP2050EE near the AC panels.
OUR PRODUCTS
Audio-Ultra’s recommended products include the UL-certified AU2000, AU 3000 MKIII, and AU3000 MKIIIS electrical subpanels. These panels, when installed correctly, ensure low impedance, equal potential between circuits, and proper grounding.
The AU2000 is a superior industrial version of the traditional wall-mounted subpanel, and houses 12 industrial-grade circuits. Its steel encasement incorporates copper or silver-plated busses, neutral busses, and grounding bars. Price is $5200 plus consultation fee.
The AU 3000 MKIII, manufactured to our specifications, is a rack-placed portable subpanel that houses six dedicated circuits that connect to six Hubbell power receptacles. It also includes a 1.5M, 4 AWG copper whip (conductor) with a Hubbell brand plug. The AU 3000 MKIII’s grounding, neutral, and bus bars can be configured with either copper or silver plating. The panel, which does not include active isolation, comes with your choice of either copper or silver-plated 8 AWG conductors. Price is $12,499 plus $750 consultation fee.
The AU3000 MKIIIS is an AU3000 MKIII that includes Seisimion active isolation that further enhances performance. Active isolation, whose effects can easily be demonstrated by the push of a button, manages frequency oscillation at the incoming source, achieves a remarkably low noise floor, and expands system dynamics. Price is $24,999 plus $750 consultation fee.
Installation of any of these subpanels includes a review of existing wiring, main panel breakers and loads, and grounding scheme. We advise if corrections are needed and propose a course of action.
In addition to subpanel installation, we recommend installing the Environmental Protections EP2050EE non-sacrificial surge protector and transient (noise) filter to filter high frequency noise from appliances and other devices. Price is $1000 each.
