AUDIENCE - adeptResponse aR2 POWER CONDITIONER

The Audience adeptResponse aR2 Power Line Conditioners Have Received Accolades from All Over the World!

Build quality is first class and the aR2 is non-current limiting. The cutting-edge design provides the best AC conditioning possible without limiting dynamics. adeptResponse uses nothing but the finest conducting, filtering and transient suppression components (starting with the renowned “auricaps”), while performing power factor correction. This restores natural dynamics by bringing the AC voltage and current into a better phase relationship allowing a more efficient transfer of power. The single pair of outlets is individually filtered providing maximum component to component isolation. Designed for maximum current delivery, connect powered speakers, power amplifiers or even use the aR2 to isolate an analog system from a digital system.  In fact, power amplifiers plugged into the adeptResponse display increased dynamics and sound even more powerful.

- Harry Pearson, Founder, The Absolute Sound, Golden Ear Award, July 2008 

“I thought that my audio system sounded great to start with, but what I didn't expect the adeptResponse to do was to provide the level of improvement that it did, or for that improvement to be so profound. I've used a wide variety of power-conditioning systems over the years—but none has ever produced the type or magnitude of benefits I got with the adeptResponse. The adeptResponse is something very special. I heartily recommend it, but be forewarned—it will change your expectations. Once you've heard what it can do for your system, there's no turning back!”
- Brian Damkroger, Stereophile, April 2007

Realize the Full Potential of Power - With Power Factor Correction, RF/Noise Filtering and Transient Suppression

The adeptResponse elevates the performance of any audio/video system to new heights like no other power conditioner. In addition to superior power protection, the adeptResponse delivers the ultimate audio/video experience.

The adeptResponse High Resolution Power Conditioner is a cutting edge design providing the best power conditioning possible without limiting dynamics. Since power must respond quickly and completely to the demands of program material we believe it is imperative that power conditioning components present a low impedance power path while providing wide bandwidth noise reduction. Conventional power conditioners simply cannot approach the bandwidth/impedance characteristics of the adeptResponse while still offering effective noise filtration and high voltage surge protection. Exclusive Audience technology achieves far greater performance for all audio and video components. 

Of the power conditioning products on the market today few allow your playback system to attain full dynamic range or reproduce subtle dynamic contrasts accurately. The other culprit afflicting most power conditioning products is the ubiquitous MOV. (Metal Oxide Varistor) The MOV is a sacrificial device. This means it wears down over time until it fails completely. Its purpose is to clamp high voltage transients safely to ground instead of through your equipment. This would be fine if it didn’t break down and behave like the world's worst capacitor across your power line, storing energy and releasing it as performance robbing, time delayed distortion into your audio system. The effect is quite audible. For surge protection the adeptResponse employs a non-wearing type high voltage transient suppression.

adeptResponse uses only the finest conducting, filtering and transient suppression components. Even the power switch is exceptional, a very high quality magnetic circuit breaker. The advantage over thermal circuit breakers is that thermal breakers increase in resistance as power demand increases, causing heat dependent, resistive modulation of the incoming voltage. This effectively reduces the power available to your equipment just when you need it most. The design employed in the adeptResponse provides for the most natural flow of music.

The state of the art inductive components used in the adeptResponse power conditioner add no significant series resistance. This maintains a low impedance power path to your playback system. Also, the adeptResponse performs partial power factor correction. This helps restore natural dynamics by bringing the AC voltage and current into a better phase relationship allowing a more efficient transfer of power. With the Adept Response as your power conditioner all aspects of the audio/video performance are greatly improved. Your playback system will no longer be starved of clean high quality power. The result is realistic, beautiful audio and stunning video resolution.

The extensive noise filtering in the aR2 creates a lower noise floor and improves low level resolution, providing superior sound stage presentation. Power amplifiers plugged into the Adept Response display increased dynamics and perform as if they were more powerful.
