connected-fidelity AC-2K Balanced Mains Transformer.

AC-2K Balanced Power Transformer From Air Audio

...Finally, I wanted both the front end and the power section to run off the AC-2K. So I trailed one power block off another in serial fashion (a recommended action) then the end was plugged into the AC-2K itself. So now my entire hi-fi was running of the box.

The result? As you might surmise from the move account, a combination of detail and power. A combination of presence and confidence with clarity and transparency. Tonal balance but also mobility and finesse.

CONCLUSION

What I liked about the AC-2K was that, firstly, it improved the entire frequency spectrum with one flick of the mains switch. Everything was enhanced, from top to bottom. Everything. There were no trade offs here, only positives.

Secondly, the inclusion of the AC-2K was tantamount to a major component upgrade because, well, that’s exactly what it is. It’s feeding the entire hi-fi system with low noise, cleaned-up power.

Grab yourself an AC-2K and, in my book, that will be money well spent.

GOOD: low noise floor, bass presence, tonal balance, treble confidence, midband clarity

BAD: nothing
