There's a polarity LED, it won't understand a balanced supply.

 

Ah, OK ! ... thank-you ... But, apart from the LED circuit issue with a BPS, would iPurifier still provide the other benefits mentioned ?

Wouldn't have a clue!

Hi.

I join the query about the balanced power supply.

I also have a balanced transformer and also creates a lag for noise cancellation ¿How might the inclusion of the AC iPurifier affect it?
I understand, that of including an AC iPurificador, that is connected in parallel to the plug where the balanced transformer is plugged and not into its own outlets ¿Is that so?

Another question please. The balanced source had previously connected to a power filter, which I had to dispense because it was harmful to the sound. I suspect that it could be due to a greater contamination of the ground connections.
The AC iPurifier, I understand that being active, should not contaminate the ground connections. Am I right? This is very important to me.

Thank you very much for the answers.
By the way, I have several DC iPurifier with good results and that's why I'm interested in using the AC iPurifier.

Is it ok to run it in 230V phase+phase?

Kitsune have the ac Purifier for sale.

Hello ifi,

Question about the AC iPurifier.  I am interested.

I have a Furman Elite 15 PFi.  It has star grounding and 12 connections on the back separated in to three zones.  Could you provide some guidance on how the AC i would be employed in this case?

It seems as if the Purifier is meant to be used in a line-type order; the Furman is not organized that way.  As well, would you recommend that the SMPSs be plugged in to a different power component than the Furman?

thanks very much for your help, good weekend

So first impressions still using other conditioners with my DAC (SR PowerCell 8 UEF) and integrated (Furutech Flow-50), I still was able to hear benefits of inserting 2 AC iPurifiers in my system. Piano notes became clearer, harmonics better defined, the reverberation bloom of the recording expanded more. And this without affecting tonality, which is important for me. Recommended.

Even with rock and pop music the changes can be heard clearly. Cleaner and more dynamic. In my main system it appears to have improved not only highs but mids and lows as well. I did several with/without tests of the unit next to the DAC cable, and it is noticeable every time. Plus I get some peace of mind that my system has now additional surge protection. Highly recommend!

 

As soon as they show up on Amazon I will buy a couple more. I guess they have been selling well because it is not the first time they are unavailable there from iFi itself.

Full agree. They are great.

I bought some more, now 5 total for 2 systems.

It seems that you're happy with them!

Looks like they are limiting orders to one per customer though. Could only add one to cart.

Nothing of this sort happened at our end. Kitsune should be stocked.

[AMR/iFi audio]

Ah, one more thing. The 2018 Audio Video show in Lisbon just ended and here are some pictures our staff did during short breaks they were fortunate to have.

 

There were some peculiarly looking audio products showcased in there, that's a given!

 

The place itself was beautiful, in comparison to the weather in UK right now it seemed like a real paradise!

 

We had a listen to Sennheisers HD820 for the 1235423123123 time and yes, we like these.

 

Some of us couldn't keep up with the pressure and had to rest for a bit whenever and wherever possible. That's the official version. The unofficial one? It's very easy to be intimidated by TOTL Gryphon floorstanders...

OR, ahem, check with a authorized iFi Audio dealer to see if they have any in stock.

Yes, this should work too!

What's the capacity in terms of Watts of the AC purifier? My system at peak can theoretically pull over 3000W. Can  one of these little guys in the main wall outlet handle that?

There's no reason why it shouldn't.

To quote a nice Van Morrison song I like, "What's wrong with this picture?"  ?

 

OK, while the USA NEC (National Electric Code) has not standard on the orientation of USA wall plugs, in the many many places in the USA I have visited and lived in over the years, the orientation is with the ground plug at the bottom.  So, why make them (pretty much) upside down???

I'm guessing the designer was British:
