AudioQuest PowerQuest 2 6-Outlet Power Conditioner & Non-Sacrificial Surge Protector - North America

Slim Profile, Seamless IntegrationThe PQ-2’s slim profile and optional detachable base make it versatile for various setups. It’s ideal for mounting behind cabinets, with power cords plugging straight down into the top row of AC outlets for a hassle-free installation. For placement on a shelf, simply leave off or remove the base for horizontal use. Whether standing or lying down, all six outlets are easily accessible, ready to deliver clean power to your audio and video equipment.
Advanced Power Filtration for Enhanced Sound and PictureEngineered with advanced power filtration, the PowerQuest 2 removes significantly more noise and distortion than typical power conditioners, helping your system perform at its best.
Powerful Surge Defense with Long-Term Reliability
With non-sacrificial surge protection, the PQ-2 goes beyond traditional surge protectors. It safeguards against high voltage and current, preventing damage to your equipment and ensuring the device’s long-term reliability. The Extreme Voltage Shutdown feature activates the main power circuit relay in less than 0.25 seconds at 140VAC and automatically resets once power returns to a safe level.
Built to Withstand the Strongest Surges
Built to endure rigorous 6000V/3000A input surge tests, the PQ-2 can withstand multiple surges at the highest level that a building’s AC panel can survive, offering reliable protection without components wearing out over time.
Purpose-Built Outlets for Ultimate Performance
Each of the PowerQuest 2’s outlets is specifically engineered for optimal performance in your home entertainment system. It includes:
  • 1 Video-Optimized 4K/8K Outlet: Perfect for TVs, projectors, or universal players, this outlet features Linear Filter and additional Noise-Dissipation technology to maximize display performance.
  • 3 Linear Filtered Outlets: Ideal for audio/video source components, computers, modems, or routers.
  • 2 High-Current Outlets: Designed for soundbars, power amplifiers, audio/video receivers, or subwoofers.
Integrated USB Charging for Added Flexibility
The PQ-2 includes two high-speed USB-A ports for convenient device charging, charging up to 3.4 Amps total.
Directional Power CableThe PQ-2’s 2-meter, directionally optimized AudioQuest power cable features concentric geometry for optimal performance by minimizing noise and interference.

  • 6 Optimized Outlets: 1x 4K/8K Video, 2x High-Current, 3x Linear Filtered
  • Unlimited Joule Rating: Absorbs a high amount of energy to adequately protect your equipment and prolong the life of the unit.
  • Non-Sacrificial Surge Protection: Withstands repeated 6000V/3000A input surge tests—the maximum that can survive a building’s AC electrical panel. Never fails, never needs to be replaced!
  • Extreme Voltage Shutdown: 140VAC—will open the main power circuit relay within less than 0.25 seconds; automatically resets once the incoming power is within a safe range.
  • EMI/RFI noise filter: Protects against electromagnetic interference and radio frequency interference on power lines that can interfere with equipment performance.
  • Differential-Mode Noise Dissipation: Filters the noise already present on the utility line or backwashed via electronic devices and appliances.
  • USB Charge Capacity: 3.4 Amps (2x ports)
  • Signal-Line Protection: Cable/Satellite
  • 7ft Directionally Optimized Concentric-Geometry AudioQuest Power Cord
