Retail Price Including Gigawatt LC-2 Evo Power Cord: € 8.300,00

The Polish Gigawatt manufactures the best power conditioners, power cords and power accessories on the market. Gigawatt also builds the only power conditioner that improves the dynamics of your system rather than diminishing them. Guaranteed! And not only does the dynamics improve, the silences become quieter, the outlines improve, the 3D image becomes larger and more precise, and the tonal colors deepen. Just read the extensive reviews of the PC-3 Evo in Positive Feedback and the review of the PC-3SE Evo and the PF-2 Power Strip on 6Moons and the review of the PC-2 Evo by High Fidelity and you will see.

General: The Gigawatt PC-3 SE Evo+ is the Special Edition version of the outstanding Gigawatt PC-3 Evo+. Designed as the ultimate Reference 3 Zone Power Conditioner with 6 power outputs. The Gigawatt PC-3 SE Evo+ features the most advanced power purification circuits available and protects your installation against overload. It is the perfect power supply for any Hifi, High-End and Video installation. Unlike the power plants of some competitors, the Gigawatt PC-3 SE Evo+ consumes very little power itself, just a few watts. A competing power plant that must deliver 500 watts also consumes about 500 watts itself, totaling 1000 watts, gets hot, and wears out. Your Gigawatt Evo+ series power conditioner doesn't suffer from this, consumes minimal power and experiences minimal wear.

Power Cords for the PC Evo+ Series:

The Gigawatt PC-4 Evo+ can be supplied with 4 different power cords.

• Gigawatt LC-2 Evo
• Gigawatt PowerSync Ultra
• Gigawatt LS-1 Evo
• Gigawatt LS-2 Evo

The power cord used is very important, as it determines the ultimate improvement in sound quality of your PC Evo+ power conditioner. The best cable you have available, and which is suitable for power conditioners, should be used for the PC Evo+ units. Then your Hifi equipment will be optimally supplied with clean power, and the music equipment will sound at its best. The Gigawatt PC-3 SE Evo+ is the best and most ultimate power supply for your High End installation for up to 6 devices. The Gigawatt PC-3 SE Evo+ is very solidly built, and has a massive aluminum front with a clear voltage display.

Silver-plated power distribution bars in the PC-3 SE Evo+ and the PC-4 Evo+

Technology : The Gigawatt PC-3 SE Evo+ is equipped with advanced, in-house made Multi Stage Parallel filters (Super MMS Filtering Cores) instead of conventional transformers.

This Gigawatt PC-3 SE Evo+ also features 3 separate zones. A separate zone for digital devices (CD players, DA converters, streamers), a separate zone for low power analog (preamplifiers, phono preamplifiers, turntables) and a separate zone for high power analog (amplifiers, power amplifiers). The advantage is that the connected devices can no longer influence each other. A power amplifier often sends current back into the network, and this method prevents that. The Gigawatt PC-3 SE Evo+ is made from very high-quality components. Due to the new high-efficiency filter circuits, the components are mounted on new boards, soldered with silver solder. The circuit boards themselves are double-sided, and equipped with 280 um thick copper traces which are silver-plated. Power distribution is carried out via heavy polished and silver-plated copper bars and the internal wiring is executed as silver-plated OFC copper, insulated with Teflon, sourced from the Gigawatt LC-2 MK3+ power cable. The Gigawatt PC-3 SE Evo+ has a special protection system, implemented without wires or fuses. Fuses compromise signal speed, and are therefore not used. The overvoltage protection circuit is controlled by a sensor at the input, and is equipped with a plasma relay. This way the Gigawatt PC-3 SE Evo+ offers your system excellent protection against overvoltage or power surges.

Proper functioning of the Gigawatt PC-3 SE Evo+ is indicated by an LED voltage display on the front. This shows the incoming voltage exactly. The Gigawatt PC-3 SE Evo+ also features an additional circuit that monitors the power supply. Also very useful is the phase indication, via a red LED on the rear. If it's lit, then the PC-3 SE Evo+ is connected incorrectly and you need to reverse the power plug. This ensures your system is always connected to the correct phase and the Gigawatt PC-3 SE Evo+ functions as intended. The Gigawatt PC-3 SE Evo+ has power distribution bars made of solid OFC copper, which are then silver-plated and polished. The Gigawatt PC-3 SE Evo+ is equipped with 6 high-quality silver-plated Gigawatt G-040 Schuko outlets. These outlets are equipped with heavy brass bars, which at Gigawatt are silver-plated and polished. The large contact surface and heavy silver layer guarantee a very long lifespan, even with repeated plugging and unplugging of plugs. The Gigawatt PC-3 SE Evo+ is built in a heavy and stable metal enclosure, has a massive anodized aluminum front, and stands on new anti-resonance feet.

DC Blocker Board: Previously, the DC blocker was an option for the PC-4 Evo+ power conditioner. This DC blocker (DCB) is now standard built-in on the PC-3 SE Evo+. A DCB removes the last remnants of DC components from the power. Even though we use 230 Volt AC in the Netherlands, there is often still a few volts DC in the supplied power. Your equipment may respond poorly to this. The transformer may hum a bit, and your Hifi equipment may also become restless. A DC blocker board removes the DC components from the power so your Hifi equipment performs optimally. By the way, an isolation transformer also does this well, but an isolation transformer is again very bad for sound quality, so don't use it.

Power Buffer : In addition to the fast and compact power storage technology used in the PF-1 and PF-2 power strips, and the PC-1 Evo, the PC-3 SE Evo+ features 3 extra large storage buffers (Double Buffer High Capacity Power Banks). Each zone has its own buffers. The big advantage is increased speed and power for your connected equipment, and even better separation between the 3 zones. The PC-3 SE Evo+ therefore sounds even cleaner, more open and more powerful.
