12 Independently Filtered Outlets and 12 Conditioning Stages for Total Isolation: IsoTek EVO3 Nova Passive Power Conditioner Can Handle Any System, Offers Full DC Cancellation
Equipped with 12 independently filtered powered outlets and 12 unique conditioning stages to ensure optimal isolation between components, the IsoTek EVO3 Nova passive power conditioner offers state-of-the-art full-system solution guaranteed to reshape how your gear performs and how your music sounds. Able to accommodate even large setups with both audio and video devices, EVO3 Nova comes with eight 10A outlets with an Adaptive Gating circuit and four high-current 16A outlets – the latter capable of outputting 3,680W of continuous power and adorned with the company's unique Direct-Coupled circuit and designed for power amplifiers, monoblocks, active speakers, and subwoofers. All told, the 33.1-pound workhorse reduces RFI by 75dB and provides 108,000A of instantaneous protection.
Made in Europe and built like a dream, EVO3 Nova abides by Kirchoff's Equal Resistance Path (KERP), a technology developed specifically for IsoTek's EVO3 generation of products. KERP ensures equal resistance and power delivery to all outlets, providing a pure, coherent signal path throughout the unit. Furthermore, EVO3 Nova not only filters out incoming common mode and differential mode mains noise, it stops cross-contamination of differential mode noise between connected audio and AV components via its unique circuit and independent filtration networks. To review, no two outlets are connected directly, and every single outlet has its dedicated filter network, each of which functions independently. In short, EVO3 Nova effectively runs as 12 power conditioners in one box.
Able to accommodate analog and digital with equal prowess, EVO3 Nova will fully upgrade your listening experience. Start with larger soundstages with increased three-dimensional imaging, enhanced bass articulation and control, and a greater sense of extended frequency range and openness. Your noise floor will drop and lead to greater focus, with reduced grain and improved clarity. On the video side, pictures will be sharper, crisper, and clearer. In addition, you'll have peace of mind from damage caused by lightning strikes and power surges.
Supplied with a Premier C19 cable, lined with solid silver-plated OCC copper wiring, and housed in a steel and aluminum chassis, EVO3 Nova also incorporates a full sine-wave rebalance and DC cancellation circuit. An LED display shows the voltage and THD of the mains. A rack-width design, three-year manufacturer warranty, and our 100% Music Direct Guarantee help take care of everything else.
"I used it with a range of digital and analogue audio devices, in part to try and fill up all its sockets to test it under stress. Except it didn't get stressed. It took everything in its stride."
—Alan Sircom, Hi-Fi+, Editor's Choice and Product of the Year Awards
"In my system, deliberately assembled to be sensitive to mains condition, it was a great benefit. I'm left to wonder what audible benefits the Evo3 Nova would deliver to a £30,000 system... Vastly complex then, but equally capable it seemed to me. A unit you should consider auditioning if you own a top-end system."
– Martin Pipe, Hi-Fi World, five-globe review
EVO3 Premier Power Cable
EVO3 Premier features silver-plated 99.9999% OFC conductors, Teflon FEP dielectric, and bespoke solid OFC connectors with 24-karat gold-plated conductors to its sibling's already formidable arsenal. The advanced materials deliver much-improved conductivity, remarkable strength, and impressive electrical characteristics.
Clean Power, Pure Sound
The first input into any audio or AV system is electricity. It flows through the system, utilized by each component in turn to create the signal that eventually moves the speakers' drive units or delivers the pixels on-screen. What we see and hear is ultimately fashioned from, and by, mains electricity – it is the 'raw material' from which the 'art' is created. The mains supply is distorted by numerous factors as it travels from power stations to be distributed throughout our homes, eroding the performance of high-quality audio and AV systems. As the electronic devices we use proliferate and the demand for electrical power intensifies, the quality of the electricity we feed our systems continues to slide. The escalation of mains-borne 'noise' means that the need for IsoTek's clean-power technology has never been greater. 'Differential mode noise' is especially exacerbated by the switch-mode power supplies that are common in many modern devices, from computers to kitchen appliances. 'Common mode noise' is ever-increasing thanks to wireless networking in the home, with mobile phones, wi-fi and Bluetooth bathing us in a sea of airborne interference. The quality of electricity we feed our audio and AV systems has a profound effect on performance, and that's where IsoTek's unique clean-power solutions come in. Without IsoTek, you are only accessing around 80 per cent of your system's full potential at best.
