ISOL-8 PowerLine Extreme Power Distribution Unit

The PowerLine Extreme includes all the conditioning power of the PowerLine Ultra, but with the addition of DC blocking. The unit has 4 fully conditioned sockets for source components and power supplies and one high current socket for integrated amplifiers or power amps. Isol-8 have tested the Extreme on a number of systems, including Naim Audio equipment and in all cases found significant improvement in detail, depth and stability of the sound stage and reduction in background noise. At the same time there was no reduction in dynamics and musical timing. 

ISOL-8 PowerLine Chroma Power Distribution Unit

The PowerLine Chroma has the same AV specific filter complement as the 1080 but with six instead of four sockets. There is an extra outlet for the high power section plus an extra outlet for source components.

ISOL-8 PowerLine Axis Power Distribution Unit

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 Power Distribution Unit

The PowerLine Ultra 6 Way has the same filter and feature set of the Ultra, but with adds two extra sockets. One additional socket for high power loads and one additional socket for audio source components.

ISOL-8 PowerLine Ultra Power Distribution Unit

The PowerLine Ultra is fully power conditioned, surge protected, and optimised for audio. One Direct Connection outlet is 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.

ISOL-8 PowerLine Plus Power Distribution Unit

PowerLine Plus carries a number of features to lift performance even further. Mains earth has a finite impedance and does behave as an antenna, perfect for capturing RF energy. The PowerLine Plus earth line choke is custom made with a special high permeability core. This gives massive attenuation of any RF noise in the system earth bus and signal ground. The input connector is a rhodium plated IEC by Oyaide. Finally, a single pole shunt filter is fitted. This topology allows direct connection of the live and neutral conductors to the load, providing effective noise attenuation without any impact on peak current delivery.
