Quantum Technology QX2

The Problem

When we listen to music through a hi-fi system or watch a movie on a home theatre, what we are actually hearing and seeing is the power supplies that drive that system, and on an even more fundamental level, the power that is fed to those supplies. It’s a lesson the hi-fi industry has been slow to learn and even slower to deal with. Basic hardware like AC mains cords have only recently made it onto the hi-fi set-up agenda. Yet, the quality of the electricity reaching your system is critical to its performance, with EMF noise and waveform distortion all undermining the performance of those expensive hi-fi components you’ve invested in.

Whilst conventional filters can limit the destructive impact of these problems, they impose their own associated performance costs, raising the source impedance and reducing the peak current capabilities of the AC line. These limitations cause their own readily audible or visible side effects, limiting musical dynamics and robbing images of depth and color.

The Answer

QRT’s proprietary circuitry acts at the source of the problem, reducing EMF noise and RFI interference effects on the mains waveform, audio and video signals – and it does it without limiting the voltage swing or altering the impedance of the AC supply. Which makes the job of your hi-fi’s power supplies and active components much, much easier – and that’s what you hear from your system or see on your screen. Use a QRT purifier and you’ll experience a lower noise floor, greater clarity and separation and increased dynamic range, qualities that are just as apparent (and measurable) when it comes to the color, definition and detail on your AV display as they are in the context of a really great stereo set up. The result? Greater overall musical and visual coherence, more stable perspectives, greater realism.

The Qx2 unit contains a pair of QRT field generators in a specially designed, mechanically inert casework. Fed by a standard 15A IEC input, it is available with a US, Schuko or UK type AC outlet. It does not limit peak voltage swing or alter the power supply impedance and is capable of passing sufficient current to supply an entire system.

The Qx2 can be used individually, between the wall socket and your power strip, or within the system itself to feed an individual component. It is particularly effective used in this role in conjunction with a Qx4 feeding the system as a whole.
