Product Description
The Chord PowerHAUS P6 Mains Block is designed to reduce noise and enhance the performance of hi-fi and home cinema systems. Most homes have many sources of interference from both outside and inside.
For example, mains-borne interference can come from heavy machinery outside as well as domestic appliances inside. Also, Chord is the leading company for mains cleaning devices, and the P6 is the latest flagship design. The unit has six plug outlets for audio equipment and is handmade in the UK.
Uncompromising design
Chord has many years of experience developing mains conditioners and the Chord PowerHAUS P6 Mains Block draws on this expertise. The internal cables are heavy gauge for low resistance and high current capacity. Moreover, the sockets are high quality and chosen for their sound performance. Next, the 16 Amp IEC input socket is designed to be suitable even for heavy loads.
ARAY noise reduction and performance
The Chord PowerHAUS P6 Mains Block uses Chord’s ARAY noise reduction system. Rather than using filters, it uses specially developed grounding materials. This prevents noise from entering the system in the first place. The effect is an improvement in musical definition and immediacy. The lack of filters also causes no harm to peaks and transients.
High build quality
The Chord PowerHAUS P6 Mains Block avoids the use of switches, serial filters, and neon power indicators. All can generate noise and harm performance. Additionally, the build quality ensures that no interference can penetrate the unit. The internal wiring is arranged to minimize the interaction between the live Neutral and Earth connections. Upgrade your system with the Chord PowerHAUS P6 Mains Block.
Why noise reduction?
Most homes are electrically noisy and this mains-borne interference can make the sound of an audio system muddy and ill-defined. Additionally, most mains distribution units are made of plastic and unshielded. Consequently, They tend to pick up airborne noise such as Wi-Fi signals and switching noise from domestic appliances.
However, the primary aim of the Chord PowerHAUS P6 Mains Block is to block mains-borne noise from entering your audio equipment. This is done by a sophisticated and expensive to produce grounding system developed by Chord.
Mains noise can also come from outside. All the miles of power cables act like aerials dragging in noise. Also in rural areas farm machinery can add lots of noise and spikes to the supply.
