AudioQuest 6 Outlet Surge Protector - PowerQuest 2

PowerQuest surge protectors and power filters remove more noise and distortion compared to other power products in their class, effortlessly supporting a wide variety of audio and video systems. The PowerQuest 2 features six application-specific outlets: one Linear Filter outlet optimized for 4K/8K video; two High-Current outlets optimized for amplifiers, powered speakers, or subwoofers; and three Linear Filter outlets for source components.

Key Features & Technology Explained

Power - Level 1: Linear Noise-Dissipation

Comprises Differential-Mode filtering, which addresses asymmetrical noise already present on the utility line or backwashed via electronic appliances and components.

4K/8K Video Optimized Outlet

In addition to the Linear Filter, this outlet offers additional Noise-Dissipation technology to maximize TV performance.

Non-Sacrificial Surge Protection

Will accept multiple transient power surges and spikes up to 6000V or 3000A (the maximum that can make it through a home or office electrical panel). Damage from electrical storms or power-line interruptions is virtually impossible. Set it and forget it.

Extreme Voltage Shutdown

AudioQuest's power conditioners feature Extreme Voltage Shutdown: at 140VAC, the main power relay opens in <0.25s, resetting when power stabilizes, ensuring protection against voltage spikes for your devices.

Flat-to-Wall 45° Plug

Flat-to-Wall 45° Plug can be easily installed in tight spaces behind furniture or other hard-to-reach areas.

High-Speed USB-A & USB-C Charging Ports

High-Speed Charging for Type-C and Type-A USB devices; Type-C (5VDC/3.0A) and Type-A (5VDC/2.4A).

Catastrophic Surge Protection

Protects against lightning strikes and large-scale power surges.

Micro-Spike Protection

Protects against daily short, fast power spikes that damage equipment over time. Typical surge protectors can actually contribute to this sustained damage.

Description

Slim Profile, Seamless Integration

The PQ-2’s slim profile and optional detachable base make it versatile for various setups. It’s ideal for mounting behind cabinets, with power cords plugging straight down into the top row of AC outlets for a hassle-free installation. For placement on a shelf, simply leave off or remove the base for horizontal use. Whether standing or lying down, all six outlets are easily accessible, ready to deliver clean power to your audio and video equipment.

Advanced Power Filtration for Enhanced Sound and Picture

Engineered with advanced power filtration, the PowerQuest 2 removes significantly more noise and distortion than typical power conditioners, helping your system perform at its best.

Powerful Surge Defense with Long-Term Reliability

With non-sacrificial surge protection, the PQ-2 goes beyond traditional surge protectors. It safeguards against high voltage and current, preventing damage to your equipment and ensuring the device’s long-term reliability. The Extreme Voltage Shutdown feature activates the main power circuit relay in less than 0.25 seconds at 140VAC and automatically resets once power returns to a safe level.

Built to Withstand the Strongest Surges

Built to endure rigorous 6000V/3000A input surge tests, the PQ-2 can withstand multiple surges at the highest level that a building’s AC panel can survive, offering reliable protection without components wearing out over time.
