In the Niagara 7000, you’ll find optimized radio-frequency lead directionality, run-in capacitor forming technologies developed by Jet Propulsion Laboratories and NASA, and AC inlet and outlet contacts with heavy silver plating over extreme-purity copper assuring the tightest grip possible.

The Niagara 7000 uses a patented AC Ground Noise-Dissipation System, the world’s first Dielectric-Biased AC Isolation Transformers, and the widest bandwidth-linearized noise-dissipation circuit in the industry.

The unique passive/active Transient Power Correction Circuit features an instantaneous current reservoir of over 90 amps peak, specifically designed for today’s current-starved power amplifiers. Most AC power products featuring “high-current outlets” merely minimize current compression; the Niagara 7000 corrects it.

With an AudioQuest Niagara 7000, music lovers can finally experience the clarity, dimensionality, frequency extension, dynamic contrast, and grip their A/V systems have been capable of delivering—if only the power had been right!

• Dielectric-Biased AC Isolation Transformers: AQ’s patented technology greatly reduces non-linear distortions that have previously plagued even the finest magnetic-based systems, all the while increasing the bandwidth and efficiency of the transformers’ noise dissipation.
• Transient Power Correction: Provides over 90 amps peak instantaneous current reservoir with reduced line impedance for current-starved power amplifiers, whether they incorporate linear or switching power supplies.
• Patented Ground Noise-Dissipation System: 6 banks of direction-controlled ground noise dissipation. AQ’s patented technology vastly reduces ground-borne noise without compromising safety or creating low-level ground loops.
• 21-Octave Ultra-Linear Noise-Dissipation Technology: Ensures the most consistent and widest bandwidth noise dissipation possible, without the inconsistent results that typify minimalist, multi-node resonant peaking found in many AC power conditioners.
• Ultra Low-Z (low impedance) NRG Series AC Power Inlets and Outlets: Feature a grip with far lower resistance (utilizing far more mass than conventional or audiophile-grade designs), with a heavy Hanging-Silver plating to ensure the lowest impedance at radio frequencies, enabling superior noise dissipation.
• Dimensions: 17.5” W x 5.24” H x 17.2” D (3-RU rack-mounting ears, optional)
• Weight: 81 lbs.

The Niagara 5000 represents over 20 years of exhaustive research and proven AC power products designed for audiophiles, broadcast engineers, and professional-audio applications. Every conceivable detail has been addressed: In the Niagara 5000, you’ll find optimized radio-frequency lead directionality, capacitor run-in forming technologies developed by Jet Propulsion Laboratories and NASA, and AC inlet and outlet contacts with heavy silver plating over extreme-purity copper, assuring the tightest grip possible.

A great system is built from a solid foundation, and that foundation starts with power. With an AudioQuest Niagara 5000, you’ll experience for the first time the clarity, dimensionality, frequency extension, dynamic contrast, and grip your system has always been capable of delivering—if only the power had been right!

We welcome you to experience the Niagara 5000 and hear firsthand the remarkable results of highly optimized power management: startlingly deep silences, stunning dynamic freedom, outstanding retrieval of ambience cues, and gorgeous delineation of instruments and musicians in space. Once you’ve experienced it, it may seem so elegant, so logical, and so obvious that you find yourself wondering why it hadn’t been done before.

• Surge Suppression: Non-sacrificial (nothing to damage with repeated 6000V/3000A input surge tests, which is the maximum that can survive through a building’s AC electrical panel).
• Extreme Voltage Shutdown Voltage: 140VAC (will activate the main high-current relay to open within less than 0.25 second; automatically resets once the incoming power is within a safe range).
• Common-Mode Noise Dissipation: In excess of 30dB from 20kHz to 100MHz, linearized for dynamic (rising) line impedance with frequency (source) and 10 to 50 ohm load, system current dependent.
• Input Current Maximum Capacity: 20 amps RMS (total).
• Ultra-Linear Noise-Dissipation System AC Power Outlet Banks: 4 Isolated groups – total (bank three through six).
• Number of AC Outlets: 12 (4 High Current/Transient Power Correction; 8 Ultra-Linear Noise Dissipation System Power).
• Power Consumption: Typically, less than 0.25 amps at 120VAC input, or with the power correction switched to Standby setting. 
• Dimensions: 17.5” W x 5.24” H x 17.2” D (3-RU rack-mounting ears, optional)
• Weight: 38 lbs.

The Niagara 3000 features our patented AC Ground-Noise Dissipation, the widest bandwidth-linearized AC filter in the industry, and our unique passive/active Transient Power Correction Circuit. Boasting an instantaneous current reservoir of over 55 amps peak, the Niagara 3000 is specifically designed for today’s current-starved power amplifiers. Many AC power products featuring “high-current outlets” merely minimize current compression; the Niagara 3000 corrects it.

Though it’s easy to tout a given technology, it’s quite another thing to create a solution that is consistent, holistic, functional, and that honors verifiable science. It’s not enough to reduce AC line noise and its associated distortions at just one octave, thus leaving vulnerable the adjacent octaves and octave partials to noise, resonant peaking, or insufficient noise reduction. Consistency is key. We should never accept superior resolution in one octave, only to suffer from masking effects a half-octave away and ringing artifacts two octaves from there. This is the principal criterion for AudioQuest’s Low-Z Power Noise-Dissipation System.

A great system is built from a solid foundation, and that foundation starts with power. With an AudioQuest Niagara 3000, you’ll experience for the first time the clarity, dimensionality, frequency extension, dynamic contrast, and grip your system has always been capable of delivering—if only the power had been right!

Here are some comments from just a few of our customers who’ve added a Mains Conditioner to their already superb systems:

With a couple of weeks use of the mains conditioner under my belt, can a bigger upgrade be made for the money? Simply stunning in my system!!

D.B. – St Helens

It took just a couple of minutes into a demonstration of the mains conditioner to convince me that I had to have one. The amazing lack of background noise helped to bring out detail that was just not audible before. Well worth the money! I would recommend this piece of kit to any true music enthusiast. It really works!

D.K. – Appleton

The effect of the mains conditioner upon my venerable Kairn n’ Aktiv Klouts n’ Keilidhs was that of eucalytus oil upon a diva with a cold. Vocal timbre and bass clarity and depth are particularly improved without detriment to the overall balance and separation across the soundstage which itself has improved depth and breadth. There is also significant improvement in rooms served by the Intersekt which, along with my Akurate CD and Pekin, is also driven by this wonderful black box of tricks. Without doubt the most cost effective improvement in sound presentation in 17 years of system tweeking. Another one please for the cinema!*

I believe that the mains conditioner is now the starting point for any system. The improvement it makes to even the best systems is quite simply staggering. Not only does it allow you to hear things that just were not there before it also gives what I can only describe as a three dimensional quality to the sound particularly on vocals. The conditioner allows the system to breathe and also significantly reduces system noise which, at quiet points, makes you think the system is switched off. If you are looking to upgrade then this should be seriously considered.

Now to begin with I have to say that I have always been of the opinion that mains conditioners have never been needed with Linn equipment and every one I’ve heard in the past has been detrimental – until now.

The other day I was shown a couple of mains conditioners from a company called Furman from the States.

I have to say that I have had my eyes opened big time. I would say they give one of the biggest upgrades I have heard.

The Elite PF 16Ei (£950) and the IT Reference 16E i (£3199) are the two I heard. The Elite improvement was massive (KK to KK1 sort of scale) and the Reference was just mind blowing. They are split into 2 sections, the 1st giving massive low resistance clean power reserves for power amps and the other a clean power source for lower demands like pre-amps and sources and on the Reference 16Ei a further bank for digital/computer equipment. They allow your equipment to do what it is capable of and wow is it capable of delivering more that we’d heard before.

Sound-wise I can say that they represent one of the biggest and best value upgrades I have heard and I have listened to them work on Majik, Akurate and Klimax systems with equal success, including LP12s (which was mindblowing). The soundstage is expanded and instruments easily defined and placed. Instruments are rounded and more 3D if I can explain it like that. Notes have texture and timbre. Voices clear and precise. Attack and decay are much better defined and on my 242’s the whole frequency response is improved, bottom to top.

I apologise for the long post but I seriously think that this should be the first thing you buy, then build the rest of your system around it. It is that significant.

At the moment I think Chris Brooks Audio is the only dealer demo’ing them. I highly recommend you give them a listen.

S.R. – Warrington

Please note : We now recommend Audioquest mains conditioners, which we believe supercedes the Furman equipment.
