The Max 1000+ delivers enhanced sound quality that can only be obtained with superb, low-impedance line conditioning. In addition, the Max 1000+ continuously monitors your AC power, providing you with the most advanced system protection available.Audio and video equipment contains numerous microelectronic components that process information through conductors which are sensitive to heat stress from uneven power surges, spikes and static electricity. A power surge lasts only microseconds but can overheat and permanently weaken conductors, causing circuit traces to deform. Over time, this can cause system failure. Proper connection to a Max 1000+ is guaranteed to prevent these types of failures, forever. The Max 1000+ eliminates up to 99.7% of all EMI and RFI interference or "noise", allowing your audio and video equipment to deliver the highest quality performance. The Max 1000+ protects your speakers from magnified amplifier "thump" with sequential start-up and shut-down components. In addition, the AC master control power sensing cable allows you to connect the Max 1000+ to your master component and use your remote to switch on your entire system. The coax cable is actually the most dangerous path into your system for EMI, RFI and especially power surges and spikes. The new gold coax connectors on the Max 1000+ neutralize cable and interference and completely protect your system. In addition, the gold connectors themselves provide for optimum signal transfer, which means better picture and better sound.
