PowerQuest® 505 12-Outlet Power Conditioner & Non-Sacrificial Surge Protector

AudioQuest PowerQuest 505 is a high-performance power conditioner featuring 12 AC outlets: 4 High-Current outlets for amplifiers and 8 Ultra-Linear-Filtered outlets for source components. It includes a 2m detachable AC power cable with ZERO-Tech and RF/ND-Tech and comes with 2RU rack ears for easy rack-mounting.

Advanced Power Filtration for Enhanced Sound and Picture

Engineered with advanced power filtration, the PowerQuest 505 removes significantly more noise and distortion than typical power conditioners, enabling your system to perform at its best.

High-Performance, Detachable Power Cable

The detachable PQ-715 cable utilizes AudioQuest’s high-purity Semi-Solid Long-Grain Copper conductors. These strands are tightly packed and remain stable within the bundle, reducing strand-interaction distortion. Long-Grain Copper minimizes distortion caused by grain boundaries. Direction-Controlled Conductors dissipate induced noise away from sensitive circuitry. ZERO-Tech ensures uncompressed current transfer and linear noise dissipation, while RF/ND-Tech cancels induced RF noise to minimize circuit misbehavior.

Powerful Surge Defense with Long-Term Reliability

Featuring non-sacrificial surge protection, the PQ-505 safeguards against high voltage and current, preventing equipment damage and ensuring durability. The Extreme Voltage Shutdown activates the main power relay within 0.25 seconds at 140VAC and resets automatically when power stabilizes.

Built to Withstand the Strongest Surges

The PQ-505 endures rigorous 6000V/3000A input surge tests, surviving multiple surges at the maximum level a building’s AC panel can handle, providing reliable protection without component wear.

Purpose-Built Outlets for Ultimate Performance

• 4 High-Current Outlets: For soundbars, power amplifiers, audio/video receivers, or subwoofers.
• 8 Ultra-Linear Filtered Outlets: Ideal for audio/video source components, computers, modems, or routers.

Rack-Mountable, Sleek Design

Compact and rack-friendly with included 2-RU rack ears, the PQ-505 fits comfortably in most spaces.

• Ultra-Linear Noise Dissipation: Ensures consistent noise reduction for deep blacks and detailed sound.
• Non-Sacrificial Surge Protection: Reliably withstands multiple strikes of 6000V or 3000A — the maximum that can pass               through a building’s AC electrical panel — without damage.
• Extreme-Voltage Shutdown: Cuts AC power in under 0.25 seconds when 140VAC is detected.
• 12 AC Outlets: 4 High-Current outlets for amplifiers; 8 Ultra-Linear Filtered outlets for source components.
• Detachable Power Cable Included: 2-meter PQ-715 detachable power cable avoids current compression, reduces distortion,       and dissipates noise.
• Rack Mountable: Includes 2RU rack ears for easy rack installation.
• Flat to Wall Plug: Helps with installations in tight spaces.
