The best compliment someone can give, especially in the constantly changing world of E-Commerce is a positive review! I am competing against large organizations with seemingly endless pockets for marketing activities and “spreading the good news” about products during launch while I am currently limited to posting online about a new product or until it is purchased. While we have sold some products from our line, my voice can only carry so much weight. If you purchased products or services from a small company, I encourage you to leave reviews especially if like and enjoy the product. Local manufacturing is the backbone to a solid economy - the same way a strong/healthy middle class is imperative to a great national economy. Support local business and small manufacturers and they will not only support the local community but help grow our economy and hiring locally.

If your amplifier has ever suffered from a noisey buzzing power transformer that seems to come and go depending on the time of day.Your sound system is most likely suffering from DC on the AC mains.DC on the mains is generated from a lot of modern appliances like air conditioners, laser printers, switchmode power supplies etc.its causes clipping of the AC mains waveform and this generates direct current to be formed which is piggy backed on the AC mains.The result is it saturates power transformers primary winding creating a very loud acoustic buzz which can more often than not be heard across your listening room.It also robs the power transformer of power and dynamics, which in turn rob the amplifier of sound quality.The Holton DC blocker is a very high power AC mains conditioner which not only removes the DC from the mains but also filters high frequency noise from the mains as well.The Holton DC blocker is capable of power devices as high as 2400 watts from your standard Australian GPO without any drop off in power delivery.The DC blocker also comes with high quality AC volt and AC current meters so you can see exactly what is happening with what you are powering.The result of using the Holton DC Blocker is restored dynamics and resolution in your sound system and no noisey power transformers.The Holton DC Blocker One is designed to power your entire sound system not just your power amplifier. The best place to wire in the Holton DC Blocker One is between your household AC Mains GPO and your multi outlet power board.The Holton DC Blocker One can be supplied with UK BS1363 13 Amp 230VAC Mains Outlet or USA 2143 15 Amp 125VAC AC Mains Outlet upon request. Here some Testimonies from some of my Holton DC Blocker One customer's Marco C From Melbourne, Victoria tells his story."The dc blocker received and it works great. Now the isolation transformer does not hum or buzz anymore. it is dead silent. Thank you again for such a great product and your service."BestMarco, Melbourne, VIC Tom From Victoria, Australia initially bought the DC Blocker One as a try out in the hope to stop a very acoustically noisey power transformer in his Parasound Integrated amplifier. Well it turns out the Parasound has an actual fault and needed to be sent of for repair. Here is Tom's testimony in his own words."Well. I decided to put aside my initial disappointment concerning hum, took the Blocker back out from the shipping box and auditioned it as the independent component it is. I am happy to report back that I am indeed hearing increased dynamics and resolution - significant in fact. I selected a small section of a favourite Bill Evans track and compared my amp with and without the blocker quite a few times back and forth. It clearly is allowing for better sound from my system, incredibly so in fact. Better bass extension and greater separation between the individual instruments. Things sound less mashed together if that makes sense? I will be keeping it! Thank you. Tom, Victoria Australia" Graeme N from Victoria tells his story!"Frankly, I'm gobsmacked what a difference this unit has made to the clarity of my system. I'm sitting listening to very familiar material & I just keep shaking my head. Sure, I've played with a series of power treatments so far, and each have made some improvement, but nothing like this bit of kit. All of a sudden there is so much more 'air' to the sound & the soundstage is open, clear & precise. This is a real cracker !

A lot of things are changing really fast and I will be making a few announcements in the near future. A few products are getting dropped, a few added and super excited. The first big change is that all our amps will be enjoying a major aesthetic upgrade which unfortunately will increase the pricing until volumes pick up enough to offset the difference. The new cases are gorgeous, heavy duty, and unfortunately expensive to manufacture - they will however look as incredible as they sound.

That being said, I have one last case available from the old batch and I am looking to blow it out to start gearing up with all the new products.

With our standard buffer (my favorite IC opamps and regulators - can be upgraded to a Platinum by us or you at any time by changing the opamps and regulators), Propeller Tellurium binding posts, and gold XLRs, the cost will be $1,300 with free shipping in the US. For Furutech posts and Cardas gold XLRs, the price will be $1,500 (less then the retail cost of the parts). If the Furutech/Cardas model is purchased in the next 48 hours, you will get 2 free Sparkos SS3602 discrete opamps which retails for $160.00. Or Platinum buffer uses 2 Sparkos Pro SS2590s and 2 discrete regulators per board which adds another $220 per buffer or $440 for the set.

The cost of these amps will be going up and buffers will be standardized going forward to allow us to make and ship product faster. First person to DM me will get this amp and for $1,500 with the Cardas/Furutech parts and 2 extra Sparkos discrete opamps make this a fantastic deal that will not happen again. This amp will ship in less then 2 weeks from when payment is received. Hoping this goes to a great home!
