Thor is an elegant, full rack width, 6-way AC mains power distribution unit featuring sophisticated circuitry for dealing with mains noise and voltage spikes without limiting dynamic headroom. But it’s also much, much more than that. When you listen to your audio system or watch a movie, you are quite literally hearing and seeing the mains power supplying your equipment. In today’s heavily polluted electrical environment, where homes contain masses of computers, computer based appliances, wireless technology and other sources of electrical interference, all dumping noise back into your mains supply, Thor is your first line of defense, the foundation on which system performance ultimately depends.
Patent pending Quantum QRT technology is employed to purify the AC waveform, a non-invasive circuit that affects neither source impedance nor peak current capability. Unlike many competing approaches, QRT produces readily measurable and clearly appreciable benefits in both the audio and video fields. If you can’t believe what Thor does to the sense of flow and musical expression in your two-channel system, wait until you see what it does to picture quality!
But groundbreaking technology is only part of the story, and would be pointless without good electrical house-keeping. As well as eliminating mains-borne interference, each piece of equipment connected to the Thor is electrically isolated, so that any noise produced within the system itself (by displays or switch-mode power supplies for instance) is also shunted directly to earth, effectively giving each unit the benefits of a separate AC mains spur combined with a single, unified earth. Thor is wired throughout with the multi award-winning Nordost Valhalla power cable, silver-soldered to achieve optimum signal transfer and performance. It also incorporates full surge protection, while output socketry is carefully selected for each region in order to ensure the best possible results. Bushings on the base of the unit will accept a 6mm threaded insert, so that Nordost Pulsar Points or Quasar Points can be attached to control unwanted mechanical resonance. The Thor offers an unparalleled solution to advanced power distribution.
