See the latest Rave Review of the Gigawatt PC-4 Evo with DC Blockerboard in 6Moons!
The Polish Gigawatt makes the best Power Conditioners, Powercords and Power accessories on the market. Gigawatt also builds the only Power Conditioner that improves the dynamics of your system instead of worsening them. Guaranteed! And not only does the dynamics improve, the silences become quieter, the contours improve, the 3D image becomes larger and more precise, and the tonal colors become deeper. Just read the extensive tests of the PC-3 Evo in Positive Feedback and the review of the PC-3SE Evo and the PF-2 Powerstrip on 6Moons and the test of the PC-2 Evo by High Fidelity and you will see it.
General : The Gigawatt PC-4 Evo is designed as the ultimate Reference 3 Zone Power Conditioner with 12 outputs. It is the largest and heaviest power conditioner from Gigawatt, and features the most advanced power purification circuits available, and also protects your precious music system against power overload. It is the perfect power supply for even the most comprehensive Hifi, High-End and Video installation. Unlike the Powerplants of some competitors, the Gigawatt PC-4 Evo itself consumes very little power, just a few watts. A competitor Powerplant that needs to deliver 500 Watts also consumes about 500 Watts itself, together so 1000 watts, gets hot, and wears out. Your Gigawatt Evo series Powerconditioner does not suffer from this, consumes hardly any power and knows hardly any wear.
Powercords for the PC Evo Series :
We have various powercords with HC connector available for this PC4 Evo
In all cases, it is the HC version of the Powercord. The PC-4 Evo uses a 32A Powerconn Connector for the power input. The powercord used is very important, as it determines the final improvement in sound quality of your PC Evo Powerconditioner. The best cable you have available, and that is suitable for Powerconditioners, must be used for the PC Evo units. Then your Hifi equipment is optimally supplied with pure power, and the music equipment sounds best. The Gigawatt PC-4 Evo is the best, largest and most ultimate power supply for your High End installation. The Gigawatt PC-4 Evo is very solidly built, entirely made of Stainless Steel, and has a massive aluminum front and rolling bar isolation feet.
Technology :
The Gigawatt PC-4 Evo is equipped with advanced, in-house made, Multi Stage Parallel filters (High Flux Filtering Cores) instead of the usual transformers.
This Gigawatt PC-4 Evo is also equipped with 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 of this is that the connected devices can no longer affect each other. A power amplifier often wants to feed power back into the mains, and this is prevented in this way. The Gigawatt PC-4 Evo is made of 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 550 um thick copper tracks which are silver-plated. The power distribution runs through heavy polished and silver-plated copper bars and the internal wiring is made as silver-plated OFC copper, insulated with teflon, sourced from the Gigawatt LC-2 Evo Powercord. The Gigawatt PC-4 Evo has a special protection system, implemented without wires or fuses. Fuses affect 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-4 Evo offers your system excellent protection against overvoltage or power spikes.
Proper operation of the Gigawatt PC-4 Evo is indicated by a LED Voltage Display on the front. This shows the incoming voltage precisely. The Gigawatt PC-4 Evo is also equipped with an extra circuit that monitors the power supply. Also very useful is the Phase indication, by means of a red LED on the rear. If it is lit, the PC-4 Evo is connected incorrectly and you need to reverse the power plug. This way your system is always connected correctly to the correct phase and the Gigawatt PC-4 Evo functions as it should. The Gigawatt PC-4 Evo has power distribution bars made of solid OFC copper, which are then silver-plated and polished. The Gigawatt PC-4 Evo is equipped with 12 high-quality 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 the heavy silver layer, guarantee a very long service life, even with repeated insertion and removal of plugs.
DC Blockerboard : A DCB removes the last traces of DC components from the power. Despite the fact that we use 230 Volt AC in the Netherlands, there is often still a few volts of DC in the supplied power. Your equipment can react poorly to this. The transformer can start to hum a bit, and your Hifi equipment can also start to behave restlessly. A DC Blockerboard removes the DC components from the power so that your Hifi equipment performs optimally. Incidentally, an isolation transformer does this very well, but an isolation transformer is again very bad for sound quality, so do not use it.
Powerbuffer : In addition to the fast and compact power storage technology used in the PF-1 and PF-2 Powerstrips and the PC-1 Evo, the PC-4 Evo has 3 extra large storage buffers (Double Buffer High Capacity Powerbanks). The largest of all Gigawatt powerconditioners. Each zone has its own buffers. The big advantage is an extra increase in speed and power for your connected equipment, and an even better separation between the 3 zones. The PC-4 Evo therefore sounds even cleaner, more open and more powerful.
