{"product_id":"nuprime-pure-ac-4e","title":"NuPrime Pure AC-4E Power Conditioner Power Strip","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe NuPrime Pure AC-4E is a high-quality AC power conditioner with four outlets that supplies your hi-fi chain with filtered, lower-noise power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is the more compact sibling of the Pure AC-6: same idea, four slots instead of six, flexibly divided. Multi-stage filtering keeps high-frequency interference (EMI\/RFI) out of the power supply – whether you hear that as a darker background depends on your mains and your system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy the Pure AC-4E?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClean power is the invisible foundation of every system. The Pure AC-4E reduces AC noise by more than 20 dB (5th-order LC filter) and stays flexible: you can connect four high-power devices – or mix two high-power and two low-power outlets. That way the power amplifier gets its strong supply, while the DAC and streamer are fed from filtered outlets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNuPrime puts the Pure series under the motto «Power, refined.» – the AC-4E is the compact entry point. How audible the effect is depends on the system; NuPrime promises no miracles, and neither do we.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you get\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFour Schuko outlets (EU sockets only), sensibly divided, plus the typical NuPrime care on the inside. The separate filtering supplies sensitive sources with low noise, without the power amplifier losing any current. A tidy building block that connects an entire chain to the mains centrally and cleanly – with a footprint of 330 × 253 mm and a weight of 3.5 kg, it still fits easily into a full rack.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor anyone who finds the large AC-6 has too many outlets (or simply too much unit), the AC-4E hits the spot: the same philosophy, packaged more compactly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eVideo\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"position:relative;padding-bottom:56.25%;height:0;overflow:hidden;max-width:100%;\"\u003e\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/5oSxpKlYNvQ\" title=\"NuPrime Audio Pure AC-4\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;border:0;\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho is the Pure AC-4E for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor serious hi-fi and high-end chains of medium size in which the power amplifier and sensitive sources are supplied together – and for anyone who wants to give their power some attention without needing six outlets straight away.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHonestly:\u003c\/strong\u003e A power conditioner does not conjure up missing detail – it tidies up the interference your mains brings in. How big the effect is depends on your mains and your components. And a note we won't keep from you: the AC-4E is the EU version with Schuko outlets – that suits the Schuko plugs most hi-fi devices carry anyway; for Swiss T13 plugs, plan on an adapter depending on the device. We will advise you on whether and how the step is worthwhile for you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOur verdict\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Pure AC-4E is the inconspicuous candidate in the rack: you hardly see it, and whether you hear anything is decided by your own chain. We see it as a reasonably priced entry into separate mains filtering – anyone who has invested in clean components should at least keep an eye on the power. Honest advice instead of promising miracles: that is our deal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e AC power conditioner \/ power-filter power strip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of outlets:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4 × Schuko (EU version)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAllocation:\u003c\/strong\u003e up to 4 high-power devices – or 2 high-power + 2 low-power outlets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNoise suppression:\u003c\/strong\u003e over 20 dB (typical)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFilter technology:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5th-order LC filter, separate for high-power and low-power\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOperating voltage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 230 V AC \/ 50 Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions (W × H × D):\u003c\/strong\u003e 330 × 74 × 253 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3.5 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2 years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the difference between the Pure AC-4E and the AC-6?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe AC-4E offers four outlets, the AC-6 six. Both filter on the same principle, with separate treatment of high-power devices and sources. The AC-4E is the more compact, more affordable solution for medium-sized chains; the AC-6 has more slots for extensive systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill my power amplifiers lose dynamics with the Pure AC-4E?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo. That is exactly what the separate filtering is for: high-power devices such as power amplifiers get their strong supply, while the filters take care of the sensitive sources. That way dynamics and quietness are preserved at the same time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many devices can I connect?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFour – either four high-power devices or a mix of two high-power and two low-power outlets. That is enough for a compact chain of source, preamplifier and power amplifier. For larger systems, the Pure AC-6 is the better choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the AC-4E fit a Swiss wall socket?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe AC-4E has Schuko outlets (EU version) on the device side; it connects to the mains via a power cable. Most hi-fi devices carry Schuko plugs anyway. For devices with Swiss T13 plugs, plan on an adapter depending on the case – we will help you assess it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy buy the NuPrime Pure AC-4E at HD Zürisee?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBecause we give honest advice on whether separate mains filtering is worthwhile for your system – instead of simply selling accessories.
