Block Audio C-LOCK SE POWER CONNECTION GUARD with the best audiophile-grade Furutech rhodium-plated NCF wall outlet

Description

The Block Audio C-LOCK SE Power Connection Guard is a specialized high-end audiophile-grade accessory designed to ensure optimal and stable power delivery by providing a more secure connection between the power plug and the wall outlet. When combined with a Furutech rhodium-plated NCF wall outlet, this setup enhances the overall performance of high-fidelity audio systems by minimizing contact degradation, reducing electrical noise, and ensuring a cleaner, interference-free power supply.

• Stable and Secure Power Connection: The C-LOCK SE is designed to lock the power cable securely in place, preventing movement or loosening of the connection. This reduces the risk of contact degradation over time, ensuring consistent and reliable power delivery.
• Vibration Control: The C-LOCK SE also works to minimize vibrations and mechanical resonance that could affect the quality of power transmission. By eliminating micro-movements in the connection, it provides a cleaner signal path, resulting in a more stable power supply for sensitive audio equipment.
• Precision Engineering: The C-LOCK SE is crafted with high-quality materials, offering a robust and durable design that ensures long-term reliability. Its mechanical design ensures that the connection between the power plug and the wall outlet remains solid and interference-free.

Key Features of the Furutech Rhodium-Plated NCF Wall Outlet:

• Nano Crystal² Formula (NCF): Furutech’s NCF technology integrates nano-sized crystalline particles, ceramic, and carbon powder, which generate negative ions to eliminate static and convert thermal energy into far-infrared energy. This reduces electrical noise and interference, improving the purity of the power signal.
• Rhodium-Plated Contacts: The rhodium-plated contacts in the wall outlet provide superior conductivity and excellent resistance to corrosion and oxidation, ensuring minimal signal degradation over time. Rhodium plating is ideal for high-performance audio systems due to its ability to maintain a cleaner, more stable connection.
• High-Purity Conductors: Furutech’s wall outlets are designed with high-purity α (Alpha) OCC copper conductors, ensuring that the power delivered to the system is as pure and interference-free as possible.
• Non-Magnetic Stainless-Steel and Carbon Fiber Housing: The wall outlet’s body is crafted from non-magnetic stainless steel and carbon fiber, helping to reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI) and ensuring a clean, interference-free power signal.

Performance Benefits of the Combination:

• Clean and Stable Power Supply: The combination of the Block Audio C-LOCK SE and the Furutech rhodium-plated NCF wall outlet ensures that your audio system receives clean, stable power with minimal electrical noise or interference. This translates to enhanced sound quality with greater clarity, detail, and dynamic range.
• Reduced Contact Degradation: By preventing micro-movements at the connection point, the C-LOCK SE ensures that the power cable remains securely in place, reducing wear and tear on the contacts and maintaining a consistent power connection over time.
• Improved Sound Quality: With a secure, interference-free connection, your audio equipment benefits from better power delivery, resulting in a more detailed soundstage, deeper bass, and enhanced overall performance.
• Noise and Vibration Control: The NCF technology in the wall outlet, combined with the vibration-damping properties of the C-LOCK SE, helps to reduce unwanted electrical noise and mechanical resonance, further improving the purity of the sound.

Ideal Applications:

• High-End Audio Systems: This combination is perfect for audiophiles looking to maximize the performance of their high-fidelity audio systems by ensuring the highest quality power supply to their equipment.
• Home Theater Setups: The clean and stable power delivery offered by this combination enhances the sound and picture quality in home theater setups, providing a more immersive audio and visual experience.
• Professional Audio Studios: Professionals who rely on clean, stable power for accurate sound reproduction and recording will benefit from the improved power delivery and reduced noise of this setup.

The combination of the Block Audio C-LOCK SE Power Connection Guard and the Furutech rhodium-plated NCF wall outlet offers audiophiles and professionals a powerful solution for ensuring stable, clean, and interference-free power delivery to their high-end audio systems. With its ability to secure power connections, reduce electrical noise, and prevent contact degradation, this setup guarantees an enhanced audio experience with improved clarity, dynamics, and overall performance.

Many of today’s High-End audio components claim to reach for perfection… However, with power cable connection, „perfectionism“ usually ends.

But in fact, everything begins right here:
All components are supplied with essential energy through this connection! Therefore, this connection must be maintained absolutely secure. And more than this: Reliably free of vibrations & resonances, movements causing short transients…

In the real world of High-End Audio, most aftermarket power cords are usually very heavy and inflexible. Your standard wall power outlet isn’t intended for such heavy loads. Consequently, the contacts in the standard wall sockets are very overloaded, bent and can even be broken.

This is hardly perfection — nor fully realizing the benefits of your expensive aftermarket power cable.

Features

• C-LOCK stabilizes and guarantees a perfectly connected power cable.
• C-LOCK ensures a guaranteed stable supply of power.
• C-LOCK safeguards your expensive audio equipment from damage caused through poor mains connection.
• ​C-LOCK is ideal for Power Conditioners using aftermarket High-End power cords as well as all types of audiophile components.
• ​C-LOCK enhances audio performance and your musical listening pleasure.
• ​C-LOCK is an absolutely meaningful, and not overly-expensive, completionof your entire audio system chain.

Technical Highlights

• The C-LOCK fastening system is very easy to install and use.
• Highest quality materials, workmanship and appearance.
• Suitable for all types of AC power connectors with a diameter from 32 to 42 mm / 1.26 to 1.65 inches.
• Guarantees a fixed and always stable contact.
• Reliably stabilizes the AC Power Connector against:
• Unwanted disconnection or partially pulling out from socket.
• Movements causing harmful „short transients“ due to short power interruptions.
• Vibrations / Resonances that are known be harmful to sound performance.
• Mechanically relieves the wall outlet and the power cable connector, especially the contacts, from overloading, bending, breaking when using heavy and inflexible High-End power cables.
• Protects the contacts against dust and moisture and thereby prevents, or at least slows down their oxidation, and thus ensures the ideal, long-term electrical connection.
• SE models are equipped with the best audiophile-grade Furutech rhodium-plated NCF wall outlet and with extended shielding to suppress radiated EMI (Electromagnetic Interference).
