Puritan Audio Labs PS106DC-II+ Mains Purifier Strip

$1,300.00

 

Progressing up from the Power Bricks, Puritan Power Strips add additional componentry for the more stubborn aspects of differential mode interference and provide two additional output sockets, all in an extremely robust heavy steel magnetically shielding casing with a substantial aluminium top face. Incorporating 6 x 15Amp outlets, 23 discrete filter elements and enhanced differential mode treatments, plus with DC offset correction an option, Power Strips are a great solution if you cant quite stretch to a Studio Master or prefer the slender ergonomics of the Strip types.

A Revolutionary Way to Raise the Performance of Your System for Very Little Money

This unit has been designed and constructed with care and attention to every detail and will provide very many years of service. We are always on hand to advise on any aspect of use.

The unit is designed to be permanently powered. No indicator light is employed as the electrical noise generated by led or neon indicators is contrary to the aims of this unit.

The additional earthing terminal on the unit is directly connected to the filtered star earthing point as used by each socket outlet and may be used to provide additional access to the star earth point for non- mains connected accessories, e.g. tone arms.

The input is protected against over current use by means of a resettable trip located just below the additional earthing terminal. If the protector trips check all connected equipment before pressing to reset.

With the PS106DC-II+ installed definition takes an enormous stride forward, individual instruments gain air between them, their sound and timbre becomes believable, the soundstage moves out from the speakers and into the room with gains in three dimensionality with clarity and definition, the instruments interrelate with, rather than muddle each other. Your listening becomes a more engaging and pleasurable experience. Visual equipment performs to a higher level of noiseless richness and definition.

  • Heavily constructed electrically and magnetically shielded casing.
  • Six independently filtered 15 amp outlets avoid cross contamination.
  • Multiple cumulative stages of purification removes common and differential mode interference.
  • Direct maximum power, equal resistance routing to all outputs.
  • Massive 9,000 amps of three dimensional non-sacrificial (gas) surge protection.
  • Rebalances the AC sine wave, removing all dc components, this enables transformers to work silently at their very maximum efficiency realising their full dynamics and power range.
  • Star earthing plan avoids hum loops, reduces the noise floor, for greater silence and definition.
  • Cleansed earth removes noise from the earth line further enhancing clarity and dynamics.
  • Internal wiring silver plated OFC copper PTFE insulation.
  • Dimensions in mm W 540 D 87 H 90 4 Kgs.
  • Rated Voltage 110-240 50-60Hz.
  • IEC type C20 Input.
  • 3 Years Guarantee.

Why Purify?

Washing machines, fridges, computers, plug in power supplies, low energy lighting, dimmer switches, heating pumps, thermostats, solar power installations, the list of culprits directly injecting rubbish into our mains supply is endless. Effectively anything connected to the mains in your house and all of your neighbours houses contributes to the problem. And that is before you consider more distant heavy industrial machinery, and it doesn’t stop there….. In the air there’s mobile phone, radio and TV transmissions, WiFi, Bluetooth, emergency services transmissions (the list is never ending) all totally saturating the atmosphere. Your household wiring and equipment cables acting as antennas, absorb and pile these very significant disturbances on top of the considerable interference already in them.

The flood of fizz, hash, spikes, snap crackle and pop delivering itself into your sensitive dacs, preamps, amplifiers and video displays swamp and confuse everything they are trying to do…… and it gets worse! The DC voltages, normally present in your mains supply, smother and suffocate the transformers in your equipment. Transformers need to “breath” freely and fully, in and out, following the AC mains frequency. The presence of DC leaves them noisily gasping for breath and unable to deliver their full power and punch.

When this occurs, the clarity, dynamics and emotion of the performance that you are trying to recreate is smothered under a barrage of interference pollution and waveform distortion. Your audio and visual equipment groans, buzzes and rattles, …. sound is constricted, muddled, harsh, two dimensional and unrealistic.

With the ‘Puritan Treatment’ dynamics and definition take an almost unbelievable stride forward, individual instruments gain air between them, their sound and timbre become convincing of the real thing, the sound-stage moves out of your speakers and into the room with gains in three dimensionality and with clarity definition and space between the instruments for them to inter-relate rather than muddle each other. Your listening will become a far more engaging and pleasurable experience.

Problems with mains and airborne disturbances also greatly compromise visual display performance causing definition to be dulled and the dynamics squashed. With the ‘Puritan Treatment’ the visual experience elevates to a higher level of noise free richness, blacker blacks, greater clarity, increased vibrancy and realism.

The Puritan Way

Our aim throughout is to produce the ultimate mains purifier solutions and to present these to the consumer with a level of meticulous build quality that means that an investment in a Puritan product is an investment that will be enjoyed for decades to come.

Look inside any of our products and you will see they are crammed with engineering.

We use multiple filter elements, 39 in the PSM136, each carefully and precisely tuned to inter-relate with each other to produce an increasing, cumulative cleansing effect with the lowest impedance high current paths to preserve maximum surge demand and dynamic agility.

By maintaining the power of equal resistance paths to each outlet and with every single type of mains degradation mode comprehensively dealt with, right down to the provision of a precision cleansed, star reference grounding structure, all Puritan design aspects come together to enable your system to perform to its absolute peak ability.

Mains purifiers require a means of connecting from the wall to the purifier and from the purifier to your equipment. To preserve the ultimate quality of mains supply we have developed our unique ‘Proprietary Dissipative Technology Mains Cables’. These employ a very substantial 25 amp rating, extremely high purity plated copper conductors enclosed in a superior dielectric silicone insulation which in turn is encased with a mechanically damping silicone sheath to provide a vibrationally “dead” super silent conduit. We then massively enhance this already terrific cable with a very special technology:

With normal (unshielded) mains cables, airborne interferences enter the conductors directly, polluting your equipment power paths, disrupting signal processing and delivery. With ordinary shielded cables airborne interferences are gathered and dumped into your system’s earth and through this route disrupt your processing and signal paths – a lose – lose situation! We solved this dilemma by developing our unique Proprietary Dissipative Technology shielding system. With our unique dissipative shielding the interferences bombarding the cables are absorbed into the dissipative shield, burned up and dissipated as heat – avoiding interference either reaching the conductors or polluting the system earth.

A thoroughly thought through and researched, highly advanced mains cable solution.

Other Puritan products to improve audio and visual experience by the elimination of mains disturbance problems include plug in silencers to place in sockets around the house to prevent re-radiation of disturbances, quietening the overall EMI/RFI smog and high specification speaker cables protected with our dissipative technology to prevent radiated disturbances attacking signal integrity at the last stage.
