The Clean Power Supply components from Accuphase are products that remove noise and impurities from the AC power line through a groundbreaking new approach, resulting in a drastic improvement of the sound and picture quality of connected audio and video equipment. Without relying on an oscillator, the reference waveform is created with further improved accuracy and is linked to the power section by a balanced connection to ensure incredibly low distortion in the output waveform. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eLow-distortion reference waveform generator\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo generate the 230 V (120 V) sine wave reference signal, the zero-cross point at the secondary winding of a measurement circuit transformer is detected by a comparator and used by the high-precision power supply to generate a square waveform. The square wave then is routed through a newly developed 50\/60 Hz band pass filter and a six-stage band elimination filter (BEF). The filter frequency is switched in sync with the input frequency, for automatic 50 Hz and 60 Hz support. By routing the signal through another band pass filter, a low-distortion sine wave (reference signal) is created that is not dependent on the input voltage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eOutstanding power\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFigure (a) shows a severely distorted waveform such as commonly encountered in ordinary AC outlets at home. Simple filtering will never be able to bring this waveform back to the intended shape. Figure (b) shows the condition where noise is affecting the AC power. Filtering will be able to remove some of the higher frequency noise components but low frequency components are very difficult to remove. The PS-530 incorporates power waveform shaping technology that uses a clean reference waveform and works in real time to provide exactly the required compensation and remove any unwanted components. Distortion is reliably eliminated and the result is a perfectly clean source of energy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRated output capacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 510 VA (continuous)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRated output voltage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 230 V AC ±3.0 V\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRated output current:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.22 A\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOutput frequency:\u003c\/strong\u003e 50 Hz or 60 Hz (identical to input frequency)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstantaneous peak current capacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 40 A\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOutput waveform THD:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.08% or less\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAC power outlets:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6 outlets, on rear panel\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRated input voltage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 230 V AC ±10%\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInput frequency:\u003c\/strong\u003e 50 Hz or 60 Hz\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNo-load power consumption:\u003c\/strong\u003e 37 W\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCooling principle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Natural air cooling\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMeter:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVOLT-AMPERE:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0-510 VA, Meter function selector LEDs flash when overload occurs\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVOLTAGE INPUT\/OUTPUT (green zone of scale):\u003c\/strong\u003e 230 V AC ±5%\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDISTORTION INPUT\/OUTPUT:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0-6%\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAUTO-MONITOR:\u003c\/strong\u003e Display cycles automatically from VOLT-AMPERE to DISTORTION OUTPUT, showing each mode for 5 seconds\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Dimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e Width 465 mm (18.31\"), Height 181 mm (7.13\"), Depth 386 mm (15.2\")\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMass:\u003c\/strong\u003e 24.0 kg (52.9 lbs.) net, 30.0 kg (66.1 lbs.) in shipping carton\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Accuphase","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":959769321,"sku":"ACCPS530","price":16000.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0225\/9777\/files\/Accuphase-PS-530-front.jpg?v=1695178915"},{"product_id":"nordost-q-kore-wire","title":"Nordost Q-Kore Wire","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eQKORE Wire, which is constructed to provide the path of least resistance to ground, for the stray, high-frequency, low-voltage potentials that can affect the performance of your sound system.

Airborne pollution can take the form of high frequency interference, noise, and stray magnetic fields, which lead to AC line contamination. A poor, or “unclean”, ground causes more performance imperfections than most people realize. Without an effective ground point, the entire foundation of your sound system becomes jeopardized—and unfortunately, most listening rooms simply do not have access to a designated line, attached to a ground rod.
