The science of AC power delivery is not a simple one; it
demands focus, and the devil is in the details. In fact, the great
increase in airborne and AC-line-transmitted radio signals
(satellite, Bluetooth, cellular), combined with overtaxed utility
lines and the ever-increasing demands from high-definition
audio/video components, has rendered the AC power coming
to us through our utilities an antiquated technology.
Further, today’s power amplifiers are being taxed for instantaneous
peak-current demand, even when driven at modest
volume levels. Although we have seen a substantial increase
in dynamic range from much of our audio software, the
loudspeakers we use to reproduce them are often no more
efficient than they were five decades ago. This places great
demands on an amplifier’s power supply, as well as the AC
power source supplying it.
Through differential tests and spectrum analysis, it can be
proven that up to a third of a high-resolution (low-level)
audio signal can be lost, masked, or highly distorted by the
vast levels of noise riding along the AC power lines that feed
our components. This noise couples into the signal circuitry as
current noise through both the AC line and ground, permanently
distorting and/or masking the sensitive source signal.
Once the signal is gone, it’s gone forever…
The Niagara Series addresses these issues to ensure maximum
system performance. The series boasts many unique features
such as our patented AC Ground Noise-Dissipation System,
the widest bandwidth-linearized AC filter in the industry,
and our unique Transient Power Correction circuit (which
supplies an instantaneous current reservoir of over 90 amps
peak), our patented Dielectric-Biased Isolation Transformers,
proprietary noise filtering capacitors formed by a process
developed by NASA and Jet Propulsion Laboratories, Hanging-
Silver direct-plated connectors over high purity red and
beryllium coppers, and directionally-oriented solid copper
conductors just to name a few.
A great system is built from a solid foundation, and that foundation
starts with its AC power source. With the AudioQuest
Niagara Series, you’ll experience for the first time the clarity,
dimensionality, frequency extension, dynamic contrast, and
grip your system has always been capable of delivering—if
only the power had been pure!
