Tor Mains Module

Technology

The Tor mains modules have been developed from our highly acclaimed Peak Mains Connection System and represent a significant step forward in leveraging the capabilities of the Peak components for a more affordable budget.

Using the Tor mains modules, each component in your system will benefit from dramatically reducing forward and backwards high-frequency noise propagation and mechanical oscillation cascading around your system. Using millimetre wave technology, the Tor has an incredibly high return loss at frequencies well above the audio range to stop standing wave creation along the power lines. This is done with no impact on the audio range, but the eradication of standing waves ensures that the power delivered is clean.

Technology

At Quiescent, we concentrate on understanding electronic component cross-pollution between power supplies and sensitive electronics, alongside mains-borne noise. An audio system functions in a noisy environment, where considerable electromagnetic and mechanical energy is produced and radiated among system components. Radiofrequency interference (RFI) travels up and down power lines and, if unchecked, leads to electronic components generating microphonic noise modulated with the music we wish to hear.

The Tor Mains Connection System uses a modular approach to constructing a mains loom, addressing this system interaction incrementally to provide significant upgrades. This method isolates each audio component’s power supply not only from the mains but also from other elements in the system.

Utilising the Tor mains modules significantly reduces forward and backwards noise propagation as well as mechanical oscillation that is cascaded throughout the system. The module is a high-frequency device with an exceptionally high return loss across a broad band. Our patented matrix technology offers multiple pathways for high-frequency signals to traverse, effectively functioning as a fully matched load and preventing standing waves. This is achieved without impacting the signal in the audio band.

Like its bigger sibling, the Peak, the Tor mains module comes in two variants. The double output module allows connection to two system components using one mains lead input, whereas the single output version represents a significant leap in mains cable noise isolation. 

As with our Peak Mains Connection System, Tor mains modules have flexible deployment options. They can be used with your mains input leads or our low-noise/high-current cables. Connecting to the output also has the option to buy Quiescent low-noise/high-current output cables or use your own, provided it is terminated at one end with a Neutrik powerCON connector.

The system’s modular design offers flexibility and allows for progressive upgrades, enabling the creation of a genuinely high-end mains loom within a refreshingly affordable budget.
