Thor Prodigy 8 Surge Protector, Filtration
Australia is the home of extreme storms and although that's not the only type of event that can cause surges, it's been on of the main motivators of Thor to manufacturer these protection boards.
Their surge protection circuitry has been developed in collaboration with Waikato University in New Zealand. It is a unique non sacrificial circuit - perfect for HiFi.
A neat, clever device that not only provides surge protection but also a filtration to reduce the noise floor in HiFi components.
You can also connect antennas and data ie NBN onto this unit as well.
Thor has so much confidence in their products that they offer a warranty for any damage that occurs to any unit, regardless of value, when it's connected to a Thor.

Chord Shawline power cable 1M
Because our electromagnetic environment is becoming busier and busier a good quality power cable can go further to improve the quality of sound from your stereo.
A power cable can act essentially like an antenna - it is afterall a piece of wire fed into your stereo system - and if not properly shielded, it can pick up bluetooth, wi-fi and radio signals flying around your home.
The shawline power cable has a braid wire shield and some really good conductors to ensure your components are 'sucking' their power effectively.
Please call for availability on specific lengths

Rega TT Neo PSU MkII
The classic Rega power supply slightly redesigned mainly for aesthetics.
This unit is particularly noteworthy as an upgrade to a Planar 3. It regulates the power sent to the turntable to keep it spinning just right. Thus greatly reducing those tiny pitch fluctuations inherent in a normal spinning turntable.
It is also back compatible with many of the older Rega models. Contact ask if you'd like to make sure you can use your Rega with this Power Supply.
The Planar 6 and above come with their own dedicated power supplies.

Cyrus PSX-R TRADE-IN
This is now the old model of PSX-R but will work a treat with any piece of Cyrus gear except the XR models.
Most of our cyrus customers know the joy of this fully regulated power supply. Cyrus kit is extremely effective for the money, but if you want to wring that last bit of extra performance out of it, then get a PSX-R! It will increase dynamics, lower the noise floor and boost the detail of your Cyrus kit. Both source components and amps can benefit from this nifty kit, with its smart circuitry automatically configuring for which ever device you plug it in to. Is it better on a source or an amp? We recommend one for each!

Isotek V5 Polaris Conditioning Board, with Initium Cable
As there are more signals in our environments and as our electrical supply is dirtier Ie. has more fluctuations and noises living in it, power cables, power conditioners and regenerators are delivering more and more gains to the average punter.
We've really found that sorting out the power into HiFi systems even in the lower and middle end of what we sell makes huge improvements in the sound quality. Often even more than going out and buying a whole new amplifier of set of speakers!
It is comparitively cost effective as well. If you are thinking of upgrading, talk to us first and maybe even some simple power products like this Isotek V5 Polaris and Initium cable will cure your upgraditis.

PS Audio Dectet
Clean power is important if you're chasing high end sound (and if you're here then of course you are!). Power filters give the incoming mains signal a thorough scrub before feeding it into your system. The Dectet filters your AC supply, then routes it out to ten points, separated into 3 different zones. There is a high current zone for your power amps and subs, then two separate 'isozones' to keep your analog and digital signals separate. Basically, stick all those switch mode supplies on one zone so they don't contaminate the other.

Isol-8 Powerline Axis (5 way DC Blocking Power board) Made in the UK
The PowerLine Axis provides an innovative cure to the problem of DC on the mains supply. In theory the mains waveform should be pure AC: a perfect, symmetrical sine wave. In practice the waveform can arrive at the end user clipped, distorted and asymmetrical with a significant DC voltage component. The AC transformers commonly found in equipment power supplies cannot, by nature, tolerate significant DC without being compromised. The PowerLine Axis has five high quality outlets served by a network that re-centres the voltage axis of the mains waveform. This eliminates any DC voltage on the mains power supply, suppressing mechanical hum and liberating performance. Surge protection provides peace of mind too.

Isol-8 Powerline Ultra (6 way Transmodal Filter) Made in the UK
The PowerLine Ultra is fully power conditioned, surge protected, and optimised for audio. 2 Direct Connection outlets are provided, filtered by a high current shunt filter, and is suitable for loads such as amplifiers. The remaining outputs are for source components and benefit from ISOL-8s Transmodal filter technology. Noise in mains wiring can be transmitted and induced in many ways, some are easier to deal with than others. As a result, many power conditioners are not completely effective. ISOL-8s Transmodal filters effectively attenuate all modes of transmitted and induced mains noise, without dumping it to ground, so you can be sure that your system benefits from the cleanest possible power.

Isotek V5 Sirius, Power Cleaning and Distributing Board
Cleaning up your power distribution into your HiFi system can make massive improvements to your existing gear. If you are looking for an upgrade to your system but not sure where to put your money, power can be the perfect place to start.
Compared to other upgrades it can be relatively affordable. Buying a whole new pair of speakers or a new amplifier can cost in the thousands and depending how much you're upgrading not give you as much as dealing with your power supply.
Adding a V5 Sirius will let you hear more details in the music, more nuances that were previously masked by noisy mains or RFI.
It's been a very popular addition to customers systems.

Chord SignatureX ARAY 1.5m
SignatureX Power cable is designed, hand built and tested in the UK and benefits from the latest XLPE insulation as found in many of our speaker cables. This provides a consistently high-quality performance in any environment and across all audio/video applications.
Alongside the unique Chord Company ARAY geometry this upgraded mains cable features significantly heavier-gauge conductors meaning less resistance and greater efficiency.

Isotek Elektra V5 Power Cleaning System
Isotek's new Elektra V5 is calling itself a Cleaning System as opposed to a conditioner. The difference being that each of the six outlets on this unit are connected to their own individualised cleaning circuitry. This prevents cross contamination that adds to the noise we're trying to reduce. This means that the Elektra is much more efficient at reducing Differential Mode and COmmon Mode noise.
Comes with an Initium power cable.

IsoTek Aquarius V5 Power Conditioner
The all new, completely redesigned from the inside out.
The old Aquarius EVO3 has been incredibly successful and a clear and easy step up from a basic power board for many of our clients. The V5 is building on that success but offering a lot more in the package.
It still has 6 discreet outlets of conditioned power but it's capacity for instantaneous power has dramatically increased as has the surge protection it offers. The PCB circuit board design has been completely reworked and better components with improved tolerances have been sourced.
Overall this means a more dynamics, bigger sound, simply put, more of that good Hi-Fi stuff for your ears at home.
