SUPRA MAINS POWER BLOCK - MD06-NZ/AU PLUGS - ALUMINIUM SHIELDED/FILTERED
SUPRA MAINS POWER BLOCK - MD06-NZ/AU PLUGS - ALUMINIUM SHIELDED/FILTERED
Supra LoRad MD06-AU mkIII
Supra mains distribution block consisting of Australian sockets conforming to Australian Standards. Input connector is a 10 ampere male chassis connector according to the international standard IEC-320, i.e. the same for most electrical multimedia devices with detachable power cord including ground lead. It provides a 10 ampere fuse and a non-intrusive filtering (NIF).
SUPRA NIF Transient Filter
All models are equipped with Supra NIF (Non-Intrusive Filtering), an efficient high frequency (RFI) transient filter. It is designed and configured to efficiently suppress RFI interference, but not to dampen large current demands from the connected devices power supplies. Supra NIF is developed by Ben Duncan Research in England.
An often claimed result from mains filter is that it somehow attenuate the musical dynamics. The Supra NIF filter does not and cannot technically in any way affect the mains power 50 or 60 Hz sine wave. The filter tuning addresses distortion far from the mains power frequency. The distortion filtered by Supra NIF does only deteriorate the sound quality and if there is a substantial difference before and after it only proves that the mains needed filtering. Any feeling that there is less dynamics after the filter is connected, is purely the sense of unfamiliarity to a sound with less distortion. The sound will in most cases show less high note levels and sibilance. The often much calmer sound is what may be perceived as less dynamics, but is on the contrary MORE dynamics when the noise is gone. The new sound is simply higher fidelity. If you like it or not, now, that is up to you. Try it!
