Musical Fidelity X-Power Mains Conditioner

Musical Fidelity X-Power Mains Conditioner

The Musical Fidelity X-Power Mains Conditioner is engineered to provide ultra-clean, stable mains electricity for high-performance Hi-Fi systems. Designed specifically for audiophiles who demand maximum transparency and system protection, the X-Power combines advanced surge suppression, high-level EMI/RFI filtration, and precision DC blocking within a compact, shielded aluminium enclosure. By addressing power contamination at its source, it allows your components to perform with greater clarity, lower noise, and improved dynamic expression.

The Musical Fidelity X-Power Mains Conditioner is available for demonstration in our Hull store by request.

Clean mains power is fundamental to achieving the full potential of any revealing Hi-Fi system. The X-Power removes the limitations imposed by electrical noise, voltage instability, and DC offset, delivering improved transparency, tighter bass control, enhanced dynamics and a deeper, quieter background.

Design Excellence

Built in the classic Musical Fidelity X-Series form factor, the X-Power features a single high-quality IEC inlet and outlet configuration that prioritises purity of signal flow and power stability. The chassis is constructed from a one-piece aluminium extrusion, delivering exceptional shielding against electromagnetic interference while maintaining structural rigidity and thermal stability. This robust enclosure protects the internal circuitry while preventing external noise from entering your system.

Advanced Surge & Overvoltage Protection

The X-Power incorporates a sophisticated multi-stage surge and overvoltage protection system designed to safeguard valuable Hi-Fi equipment. With dedicated protection stages at both the input and output, the unit actively defends against voltage spikes caused by lightning strikes, grid instability, or sudden electrical load changes within the home. Excess voltage is safely diverted away from connected components, helping to extend equipment lifespan and maintain consistent performance.

High-Performance EMI/RFI Filtering

Unwanted electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio-frequency interference (RFI) are common in modern households and can significantly degrade audio performance. The Musical Fidelity X-Power combats this with a carefully engineered bespoke filter network using precision-matched chokes and capacitors to suppress high-frequency noise. With attenuation levels reaching nearly –60 dB at 100 kHz and exceeding –80 dB at 1 MHz, the X-Power dramatically lowers background interference for improved imaging, enhanced detail retrieval and a more open, natural presentation.

Precision-Engineered DC Blocker

DC offset on the mains supply can cause transformer saturation, mechanical hum and compromised amplifier performance. The X-Power addresses this with a precision-designed DC blocker network utilising high-quality diodes and electrolytic capacitors. This circuit blocks unwanted DC components while allowing the AC waveform to pass freely and unimpeded. As most amplifiers and preamplifiers do not include DC blocking as standard, the X-Power provides a valuable performance upgrade.

Optimised for Sources & Amplifiers

With a 10A current rating and a maximum throughput of 2300W at 230V, the Musical Fidelity X-Power Mains Conditioner is ideally suited for powering multiple source components including CD players, DACs, streamers, phono stages and preamplifiers. When paired with a high-quality unfiltered distribution block, it can comfortably supply several low-current devices while maintaining clean, stable delivery.

System Matching Advice

For best performance, analogue and digital components should be kept on separate power strips, and each amplifier is best partnered with its own dedicated X-Power unit. This ensures optimal isolation, reduced cross-contamination and maximum sonic benefits across your Hi-Fi system.

Why Upgrade Your Mains Supply?

Modern homes are filled with electrical noise from switch-mode power supplies, LED lighting and household appliances. By conditioning and stabilising the mains supply before it reaches your equipment, the X-Power allows your system to reveal finer detail, greater dynamic range and improved overall musical realism.
