Clean, Affordable Power from AudioQuest

With PowerQuest, all audio/video enthusiasts can enjoy the benefits of clean, uncompressed AC power.

With the award-winning Niagara Series of AC power products, AudioQuest takes a comprehensive approach toward effectively addressing the various ways in which AC power is corrupted in today’s highly volatile electronics environment. Met with near-universal acclaim, the Niagara Series has invigorated the AC power market, its technologies gradually making their way into other products, including AudioQuest’s Storm, Wind, and NRG Series of AC power cables. 

Yet for many who’ve wanted to experience the dramatic benefits of clean, uncompressed power in their own audio/video systems, the last remaining hurdle has been the price of entry. Now, with AudioQuest’s PowerQuest 2 ($199.95) and PowerQuest 3 ($299.95), performance remains the top priority, protection is assured, and price is no longer a concern.

Designed by Garth Powell, AudioQuest’s Senior Director of Engineering, to the same exacting standards of all AudioQuest products, the PowerQuest AC power filters are packed with noteworthy performance features, including captive AudioQuest NRG power cords with Directionally Optimized Concentric-Geometry conductors. These cables are siblings of the company’s NRG-X (longtime Stereophile Recommended Component), which has a retail price of $100 on its own.

Moreover, AudioQuest’s advanced filtration removes more noise and distortion than other similarly priced power products, while easily accommodating a wide range of audio/video systems. The PQ3 offers eight application-optimized outlets in total: two 4K/8K video-optimized Ultra-Linear filter outlets, two High-Current outlets for amplification devices and powered speakers or subwoofers, and four Ultra-Linear filter outlets for source components. The slightly smaller PQ2 has six total outlets: one 4K/8K video-optimized Linear filter outlet, one High-Current, and four Linear.

Both PowerQuest products boast safety features found in the far more expensive Niagara Series, including Non-Sacrificial Surge Protection and Extreme Voltage Shutdown. And in a nod to today’s dynamic, hyperconnected electronics environment, convenience features include signal-line protection and USB charging ports. Both PQ2 and PQ3 come with a $1,000,000 Connected Equipment Protection Warranty. Finally, thanks to their slim, compact design, the PowerQuest units can be placed in a rack, stood upright on a floor, or mounted onto a wall.

PowerQuest 2 ($199.95) and PowerQuest 3 ($299.95) surge protectors are available now.
