- Has Been Designed To Improve The Quality Of AC Electricity That Feeds Audio & AV Systems
- Mains Electricity Has A Fundamental Influence On The Audio Signal As It Passes Through A System, From Source To Amp To Speakers.
- The Mains Supply In A Typical Dwelling Is Subject To Interference Induced By A Range Of Issues, Causing AC Waveform To Distort Before It Reaches The Component
- This Creates Noise In The Audio Signal, Which Degrades Sound Quality – A Situation That Continues To Worsen With More & More Electrical Devices Being Added To The Home Mains Supply
- One Common Issue Is ‘DC On The Mains’ – A Problem Well Known To Affect The Performance Of Audio Equipment, Especially Amplifiers
- In Theory, The Mains Electricity We Obtain From The Sockets In Our Homes Should Be Pure AC, With A Perfectly Symmetrical Sine Wave Alternating Between Positive & Negative Phases. However, The Presence Of ‘Asymmetrical Loads’ – Myriad Household Devices That Use The AC Energy Available In The Mains Cycle Unevenly, From Dimmer Switches To Kitchen Appliances To Computer Power Supplies – Causes The Waveform To Become Offset, Resulting In The Presence Of DC Voltage On The AC Supply
- The AC Transformers Commonly Used In In Home Audio Equipment Cannot Tolerate The Presence Of Significant Levels Of DC Voltage Without Being Compromised
- Less Than 500mV Of DC – Typical In An Average Household Electricity Supply – Can Be Sufficient To Cause Toroidal Transformers Of The Kind Often Found In Amplifiers To Become Saturated, Which Adversely Affects Sonic Performance & May Cause Audible Mechanical Vibration
- The Audiolab DC Block 6 Is a 6-Way Solution For This All-Too-Common Problem
- By Blocking, Or Cancelling, DC Voltage Found Within The Mains Supply, The Audiolab DC Block 6 Corrects The DC Offset & Rebalances The Mains Sine Wave.
- Tackling ‘DC On The Mains’ Is Not The Only Benefit Delivered By This Dual-Action Device – It Also Contains A High-Performance Audio Class Filtering Circuit That Removes RFI/EMI Contaminants From The Mains Supply
- This Is Effective In Reducing Both Differential-Mode Noise (Exacerbated By Cheap Switch-Mode Power Supplies Used By Many Home Appliances) & Common-Mode Noise (Aggravated By Airborne Interference From Phones, WiFi Networks & Bluetooth)
- Simple Set-Up
- The DC Block 6 Has 1 Single Mains Input & Offers 6 IEC Outlets For The Mains Power Supply Of Your Audio System Components (Cables Included)
- Perfectly Sized To Match Audiolab Components & To Easily Fit Into A Typical Hi-Fi Shelf/Rack System, the DC Block 6 Also Features a OLED Front Panel Voltmeter Display (Which Can Also Be Powered Off For a More Discreet Placement)
- Suitable For All Audio or AV Systems
- Removes DC From AC Mains Supply, Transformer Hum, & RF Interference
- Offers Radical Improvement In Mains Quality, Transformer & Power Supply Performance, & Therefore Sound Quality
