ChordOhmic PowerARAY

The Chord Company PowerARAY is the latest addition to the company's line of next-generation noise reduction and absorption units. Similar to the popular GroundARAY units, the PowerARAY connects to unused mains outlets (wall or multi-outlet) responsible for supplying power to hi-fi equipment.
The PowerARAY provides a low impedance "escape route" for RF noise, reducing the amount entering the HiFi system and lowering the noise floor. This leaves room for the music.

Things to know about the ChordOhmic PowerARAY
Very high frequency noise/dirt surrounds us everywhere. Unfortunately, this noise can affect the performance of audio and video equipment.
The final mains feed into most domestic listening rooms is at the end of a very long series of different distribution points. Not only that, but as soon as the power arrives in the house, it is simultaneously routed to the audio system (and all other household electrical equipment), giving the power grid another opportunity to pick up unwanted RF interference.
pick up. Many of the power lines are unshielded and very susceptible to picking up noise on the phase, the protective conductor and the neutral conductor.

Reduce high frequency noise.
The idea behind the PowerARAY is to reduce high-frequency noise as much as possible and to consistently and sensibly improve the mains supply just before it enters the hi-fi system.
improve. The best place for a PowerARAY is a free wall socket or a distribution block directly next to the power cabling of the audio or video system.
The Chord Company PowerARAY works in parallel with the power supply so that no current flows through it. This parallel filtering is applied to phase, neutral and ground and has been optimised to reduce high frequency noise as much as possible. Chord does not use
does not use series filtering as this can affect the impedance and power supply of the system.

Any high-frequency noise generated internally by a hi-fi system can be further reduced or eliminated by using our GroundARAY range.

Installation
Simply connect the PowerARAY, listen to a piece of music and see the sound improvement for yourself.

Important safety information
The PowerARAY technology is unfortunately slightly microphonic, so Chord has filled the entire cavity of the enclosure with a hardening resin to counteract this.
In the event of a malfunction, please do not attempt to open the PowerARAY as this may damage the unit, void the warranty and be potentially dangerous.
