Niagara 1200 brings the benefits of highly optimized energy management to many more music lovers and replaces the incredibly well received Niagara 1000.
The most obvious difference between the Niagara 1000 and 1200, aside from the 1200's gorgeous glossy texture finish, is the more universally useful shape and surprisingly substantial weight. The 1200 can now sit on a shelf as a component, with all input and output cables at the rear. It can be used 'upside down' with the vents in the air, fitting much better in the space between the furniture and the wall. And, the 1200 is designed to stand on one end. 100% performance in a more useful package - and still only $ 999.95
Designed by Garth Powell, the Niagara 1200 embodies the same design philosophy and incorporates the same proprietary technology found in its bigger brothers, the Niagara 5000 and Niagara 7000, but packs it up in a smaller, sleeker enclosure, for a fraction of the price.
Like the Niagara 5000 and 7000, the Niagara 1200 uses ultra-low resistance solid-core cabling optimized for low-noise directionality, capacitor-forming technologies that greatly improve linearity and minimize distortion, and Low impedance AC input and output with heavy silver plating on high purity beryllium copper for superior noise dissipation. Additionally, the Niagara 1200 features our no-sacrifice surge protection, proprietary ground noise dissipation technology, and surge shutdown. The non-damaging protection circuitry of the Niagara 1200 ensures that your system is fully protected from AC surges and spikes, and the Niagara 1200 protects itself, no damage or downtime. Set it up and forget about it.
The Niagara 1200 employs AudioQuest's proprietary background noise dissipation system and linear noise dissipation technology and fits seven high-performance power outlets into its sleek, easy-to-fit chassis. The maximum input current capacity is 15 amps RMS on the 1200.
Features:
Level-X Linear Noise Dissipation Technology: Over 19 octaves of AC differential filtering (20kHz-1Ghz in excess of 24dB) with linear response, optimized to vary line and load impedance.
Patented Ground Noise Dissipation System (All Outlets): 2 Direction Controlled Ground Noise Dissipation Banks.
Non-Sacrificial Surge Protection: Withstands multiple AC surges and spikes up to 6000V / 3000A without damage, meaning it is non-invasive.
Maximum RMS input current: 15 amps (RMS).
Outputs: Source (5); High current (2).
Dimensions: 19.4 "wide x 3.2 high x 7.5" deep.
Weight: 18 lbs.
