In a significant advancement for audio and AV enthusiasts, IsoTek has launched its latest product, the V5 Syncro Uni 10 DC filter. This innovative device incorporates cutting-edge DC-cancelling electronics that rebalances the mains sine wave on the zero volts line, effectively silencing transformer hum and vibration. With a remarkable ability to enhance sound quality and performance, the V5 Syncro Uni is designed to cater to a wide array of electronic systems, including audio, AV, and even network systems.
Perfecting the original
The V5 Syncro Uni builds upon IsoTek’s original DC cancelling system, which was first introduced nearly 15 years ago. The new version boasts a 60% increase in current capability, allowing for an impressive internal peak current of 16 Amperes, while maintaining a conservative 10A input for everyday use. This enhancement not only improves performance but also reduces impedance, enabling users to experience a higher quality of sound.
One of the standout features of the V5 Syncro Uni is its ability to eliminate unwanted direct current (DC) from the mains supply. In today’s world, where various electronic devices—from dimmer switches to solar panels—contribute to DC on the mains, the V5 Syncro Uni addresses this growing concern. The presence of DC can create mechanical vibrations within electronic devices, leading to distortion and compromised performance. By rebalancing the mains sine wave, the V5 Syncro Uni mitigates these issues, ensuring that users receive a cleaner, more accurate sound reproduction.
Fully optimized circuit board
IsoTek’s engineers have meticulously designed the V5 Syncro Uni to include a fully optimized circuit board. With increased copper loading—double that of industry standards—and a minimum of 16 high-grade capacitors composed of copper and silver, the unit delivers a staggering 75,000µF of capacitance. This level of engineering excellence allows for effective surge protection, rated at an impressive 500 Ampere peak, further enhancing the reliability of the system.
The V5 Syncro Uni not only improves sound quality but also contributes to the longevity of electronic components. By reducing transformer vibration and heat generation, the device minimizes servicing issues and extends the service life of connected equipment. Users can expect greater dynamics and frequency range, particularly in the bass register, allowing for a richer listening experience.
Versatility in mind
Designed for versatility, the V5 Syncro Uni can be used independently with a single component or in conjunction with other IsoTek power cleaners for a comprehensive upgrade. Its fully star-earthed network and multi-strand 6n OFC silver-plated internal wiring ensure optimal performance, while compatibility with standard IEC C13 power cables allows for easy integration into any existing setup. The product is available with various outlet options, including UK, EU, US, AU, and CH, catering to a global audience.
The V5 Syncro Uni 10 comes housed in a robust steel and aluminum chassis, measuring 250mm in length, 100mm wide, and 85mm high. This compact design ensures that it fits seamlessly into any audio or AV system setup.
