T+A Power Bar 2+5 HD High-End AC Power Conditioner

Premium seven-outlet AC power distribution system featuring separate analog and digital power sections, multi-stage noise filtering, integrated surge protection, and precision-machined aluminum construction.

The T+A Power Bar 2+5 HD is a high-performance AC power conditioner and distribution system engineered for reference two-channel audio installations. Designed and manufactured in Germany, it provides clean, controlled power distribution for amplifiers, preamplifiers, DACs, network streamers, and other premium audio components.

Featuring two dedicated analog outlets and five individually filtered digital/source outlets, the Power Bar 2+5 HD reduces mains-borne interference and helps prevent connected components from introducing electrical noise into one another.

Its substantial aluminum enclosure, integrated surge protection, shielded power cable, and mechanically isolated base distinguish it from conventional power strips.

Seven Outlets with Dedicated Analog and Digital Sections

The Power Bar 2+5 HD incorporates seven AC receptacles arranged for different types of audio equipment.

• 2 Analog Outlets: Intended for power amplifiers, integrated amplifiers, and other analog components.

• 5 Digital/Source Outlets: Individually decoupled to reduce high-frequency interference between connected source components.

This architecture addresses the different electrical characteristics of amplification equipment and digitally controlled components.

Multi-Stage AC Noise Filtering

T+A employs a sophisticated filtering network to reduce interference entering the system through the AC supply.

The design incorporates:

• Broadband shield-current filtering at the incoming mains connection

• Symmetrical, current-compensated PI filtering

• Five individual decoupling filters for source components

• Shielded aluminum construction to reduce radiated interference

These measures help prevent electrical noise from passing between connected audio components while reducing interference originating from the household power supply.

Individually Isolated Source Outlets

Each of the five digital/source receptacles incorporates its own high-frequency decoupling filter.

This approach helps limit electrical interaction between components such as CD players, DACs, network streamers, and digital transports.

By addressing interference at the individual outlet level, the Power Bar 2+5 HD provides a carefully engineered power distribution environment for complex high-end audio systems.

Integrated Surge Protection

The Power Bar 2+5 HD incorporates an internal surge suppression system designed to protect connected components against transient overvoltage.

The manufacturer's specified protection characteristics include:

• Surge protection response voltage: 300V RMS

• Surge discharge capability: 10,000A over 20 microseconds

An integrated LED indicator provides mains phase and protection-status information.

Shielded Power Cable and Star Wiring

The power distribution architecture uses a high-quality shielded mains cable with pure copper conductors and an external braided shield.

The cable shield is connected to the aluminum enclosure, helping maintain electrical shielding throughout the system.

Internally, the protective earth, live, and neutral conductors use a radial distribution arrangement from the central input point.

This layout is designed to maintain consistent power distribution and reduce unwanted electrical interaction.

Precision-Machined Aluminum Chassis

The Power Bar 2+5 HD features a rigid extruded-aluminum enclosure with precision-machined end caps and a substantial solid-aluminum bottom plate.

Its mechanically reinforced construction provides:

• High structural rigidity

• Effective electromagnetic shielding

• A stable foundation for the individual AC receptacles

• Reduced susceptibility to mechanical vibration

The solid-aluminum base distinguishes the HD version from the lighter Basic HD configuration.

Four-Spike Mechanical Isolation

Four adjustable spikes support the Power Bar 2+5 HD, providing stable positioning and mechanical decoupling from the supporting surface.

This construction is particularly appropriate for dedicated high-end audio racks and reference listening environments.

The substantial chassis measures approximately 25.6 inches long, 6.3 inches wide, and 3.5 inches high.
