Isotek V5 Polaris 6 way Power Conditioner

The question we get asked nearly every time...

"Do Power Conditioners really make a difference?"

YES! - we have heard back from nearly everyone that has put good quality power conditioning on their system how it has improved the sound and their enjoyment of their system. Filtering out 35db of RF noise, utilising a Fully star-earthed network internally and 6 independent outlets - the Isotek V5 Polaris represents Isotek's best value 6-way power board.

The V5 Polaris is a compact power cleaning and distribution bar measuring just 510mm in length, 80mm wide and 50mm in height. It features six individual outlets; these reference back to the central internal PCB. Most power filters of this style join outlet sockets together, running each in series connection. This is an error of judgement as Differential Mode Noise, created by the connected load (your audio components) will cross-contaminate between the outlet sockets. The electrical architecture and design of the V5 Polaris prevents this and is therefore superior.

The V5 Polaris features a unique delta filter topology, ten times greater than the recommended standard, this offers more than 20dB power cleaning at 1kHz (reference 600Ohms), this is then improved to 42dB at 10kHz. Most leading experts agree that 10kHz is where radio frequency interference (RFI) starts to influence performance. This is also linked to an amplifiers ability to reject power supply noise. This electrical engineering ensures class- leading power cleaning performance for both Common Mode (RFI) and Differential Mode mains noise. The printed circuit board (PCB) itself also has twice the standard copper loading and is silver-plated.

This unique circuit delivers clean power to its six outlet sockets – each one independently isolated to prevent cross-contamination of Differential Mode mains noise. This is combined with IsoTek’s KERP © (Kirchhoff’s Equal Resistance Path) to ensure equal resistance and equal power delivery to all outlets. The internal wiring is of the highest standard, a unique 2sqmm design featuring pure 6n oxygen free copper conductor strands each silver-plated, these offer low resistance and high amperage. An aerospace grade Fluorinated Ethylene Propylene (FEP) dielectric, with very low dielectric resistance is used to protect the conductors as well as giving an ideal conductor contact dielectric for the internal power delivery system. Furthermore, in the new V5 version instantaneous protection is increased to 45,000A, this not only protects the circuit but also safeguards your valuable connected equipment via IsoTek’s unique sequential and repeatable protection system.

V5 Polaris also contains a System Link outlet, this is designed to connect multiple units together, whilst maintaining a star earth reference, and preserving the need for multiple wall outlet sockets. A wall hanging bracket system is also included, this allows easy mounting of the product behind your audio equipment rack, if desired.

The new V5 version of the Polaris offers nine times more Differential Mode filtering, improved amperage with decreased resistance along with a 60% improved Direct Current Resistance compared to earlier models. Protection is also doubled in this new model. V5 Polaris represents Isotek's most cost-effective upgrade to any audio or audio-visual system, delivering improved performance and protection. It is astonishing value for money.
