Inakustik Referenz AC-3502 Power Station, black
Features
The Reference Power Station AC-3502 reliably suppresses unwanted interference from the power grid. At the heart of the power distributor is a highly efficient parallel filter that has been finely tuned for audiophile needs and that effectively diverts annoying interference from both the power supply and the connected devices themselves, without restricting the power supply. The star-shaped distribution also ensures a homogeneous supply of all connected components. The Reference Power Station AC-3502 represents a central basis for an equally fine and powerful sound. The technology is housed in a solid metal housing with a brushed black anodized aluminum front. Six high-quality sockets are available on the back. Thanks to the central high-current mains connection socket (IEC C20), the supply line can be easily replaced if necessary - e.g. B. by a longer cable. The integrated overvoltage protection protects the connected "treasure chest" from everyday voltage spikes and the sockets can be conveniently switched on and off using the "Power" button on the front
Background
Where does good sound begin and where does it end? Audiophiles ask this question over and over again. The fact is that the physical framework conditions have a major impact on the playback quality of a hi-fi system. This includes also the power supply: In principle, we hear nothing but household electricity modulated by the music signal. If this useful signal mixes with modulations or interference from other consumers in your own house and sometimes even from the neighborhood, the sound restriction begins: Countless, especially digital consumers, switched-mode power supplies, car charging stations and PV systems, generate strong distortions in the power grid - and that with rising trend. These distortions make the hi-fi components difficult to cope with and cover the sound like acoustic fog. Very few hi-fi enthusiasts operate their own power plant, which is why they are forced to depend on the heavily loaded power grid. For most people, the sound begins with the socket or even with the fuse box, everything before that is beyond our control.
parallel filter
It is therefore necessary to filter the interference from the power supply - however, conventional filters are known as "dynamic eaters", which is also the case with serial circuits. The reason for this are coils connected in between in the supply line, which definitely increase the contact resistance and slow down dynamic impulse currents. At the heart of the reference AC-3502, on the other hand, is a highly efficient parallel filter finely tuned to audiophile needs, which effectively diverts annoying interference both from the mains and from the connected devices themselves, without restricting the power supply. This is supported by the damped sub-chassis, which dampens the mechanical vibrations of the filter components caused by the 50 Hz mains frequency. The star-shaped distribution also ensures a homogeneous supply of all connected components. The Reference Power Station AC-3502 represents a central basis for an equally fine and powerful sound.

The integrated overvoltage protection protects the connected "treasure chest" from everyday voltage spikes and the sockets can be conveniently switched on and off using the "Power" button on the front. The operating status is displayed via LED lighting: If the LED is red, the sockets are switched off. If the LED lights up blue, the sockets are switched on.
