The QSource is a fanless Linear Power Supply designed specifically for hi-fi audio applications. By providing a stable, clean output of DC power at select voltages, while maintaining extremely low noise levels, the QSource enhances the audio imagery of a sound system by improving sonic articulation, heightening dynamics, and expanding the sound stage.

Quantum Resonance QSource Linear Power Supply

 

The QSource is a fanless Linear Power Supply designed specifically for hi-fi audio applications. By providing a stable, clean output of DC power at select voltages, while maintaining extremely low noise levels, the QSource enhances the audio imagery of a sound system by improving sonic articulation, heightening dynamics, and expanding the sound stage.

The QSource uses a top-of-the-line transformer with a unique circuit design to convert AC to DC power while an internal QRT module removes electrical anomalies and noise artifacts from the line and smooths out the DC output, so that audio components are running on the highest quality DC power possible. From a sonic perspective, this clean power makes all the difference, providing excellent regulation, very low ripple, and outstanding transient response, allowing your components to achieve their peak performance.

While the QSource was designed to enhance and power as many as four of Nordost’s new QPoint Resonance Synchronizers, which manipulate electromechanical resonances in order to enhance the coherency and timing of components, it was conceived with versatility in mind. In addition to the four, 5V outputs designated for QPoints, the QSource provides two outlets that can supply 9V, 12V, or 19V and 12V, 19V, or 24V respectively, which can be chosen to match the requirements of your electronics. To complete the transmission chain, Nordost has designed purpose-built QSource DC Cables to fit the QPoint and any other DC-run components in your system.

Whether using it in conjunction with the QPoint, or as a standalone power supply for DC-dependent audio components, Nordost’s QSource Linear Power Supply will bring new dimension to your sound system, allowing you to enjoy richer and more nuanced musical performances

Originally, established in 1997, Quantum Resonant Technology has continuously evolved its products to optimise power supply quality and distribution within high-end audio and video systems. The remarkable impact of QRT devices on display quality in the high-end AV market quickly achieved critical acclaim and sales success. Today, QRT products continue to deliver significant improvements in audio and video performance and find applications in the medical imaging field.

One of the notable QRT products is the Nordost QRT QV2 AC Line Harmonizer. This device effectively mitigates the adverse effects of poor-quality AC power, reducing noise and improving overall system performance. Similarly, the Nordost QRT QK1 AC Enhancer with EU W/ UK Adaptor focuses on enhancing AC power by providing proper grounding, resulting in cleaner and more stable power delivery.

For those seeking to purify their mains power, the Nordost QRT QX2 Mains Power Purifier and Nordost QRT OX4 Mains Power Purifier offer advanced filtering capabilities. These purifiers effectively remove noise and interference, ensuring a cleaner power supply to your audio and video equipment.

To optimise data transfer for audio applications, the Nordost QRT Qsource Linear Power Supply provides clean, regulated power to digital sources, improving clarity and resolution.

For comprehensive power distribution solutions, the Nordost QRT QB8 8-Way Schuko Mains Block offers multiple outlets with advanced filtering and surge protection, allowing you to connect and protect your valuable equipment.

Furthermore, the Nordost QRT QPoint Resonance Synchronizer addresses electromechanical resonances, optimising the interaction between components and reducing harmful vibrations that can degrade system performance.

Unlock the full potential of your audio and video system with QRT products from Nordost. Experience lower noise levels, expanded soundstage, enhanced dynamics, and improved musical expression. Elevate your audio and visual experience with the transformative power of Quantum Resonance Technology at Future Shop.
