Adam Hall AHPCS10 Power Conditioner Reviews

They work perfectly.

I have two of them in the studio where all analogue and digital equipment is plugged occupying all outlets.

Very solid

Affordable and high quality price.

It reduced the noise from my monitors. The building where I live is near an antenna.

Plus I don't even got yet "shield" monitor cable.

Does it's job like it should

Built like a tank and now I can finally feel good about the safety of my gear!

Power is now condtioned :)

It does what it says on the tin! Great value.

It is the electrical heart of the studio. I connected my best quality and expensive devices to it. I am very satisfied. If you want to send healthy electricity to your devices, it is a price / performance product that you can choose with peace of mind.

Great PC for your project studio or gig

So I got to the point where I got a few outboard preamps and compressors. Everything hooked up directly into the mains outlet, plus the computer, the monitors and the console... You can imagine that's a quite noisy setup. It was time to finally get a power conditioner. Since I am not doing live gigs, I thought I don't need the ones with lamps on the front and the voltage meter display. Enter the Adam Hall AHPCS10. No bells and whistles just everything you need for smooth, noiseless operation and protection of your gear. They say the power conditioner is the least exciting piece of gear in your studio (absolutely true), but it's necessary. So, this particular PC may not have a lot of features, but it does exactly what you expected. No more EMI noise, and crackles from my speakers. The great thing is that it comes with 4 IEC cables included, so you don't have to spend extra money on them. Overall build and quality are excellent. I am very happy with this purchase and I expect to use it for many years to come.

Unbeatable in this price range

A power conditioner is a must.

Now - there are quite expensive units of very high quality. What I needed was good quality for fair price. And that exactly I found in the AHPCS10.

No noise and distortion. Nicely filtered power is delivered to connected devices.

I am using it at home, so cannot tell how sensitive is this device to huge lights at some venues, but for me it's doing great job.

AHPCS10 gives you also nice bit of flexibility having one socket in front. Great device.

Solid build

Solid unit which has been very reliable for me.

The price is great.

Good conditioner

Made my setup so much tidier and easier to manage. This also puts my mind at easy because i know it should protect all my expensive gear from thunder and all other surges. Comes with four cables so no need to buy too many additional cables. No complaints so far. Simple and easy.

Good product

I came across this product while viewing tutorials and it was recommended to have one in a home studio ;)

Expensive 9 unit socket with very minimal real filtration

Looks good, works average, real functionality - poor.

There is only one throttle inside and several capacitors. This principal schematics is able to filtrate minimum of noises. It's almost the same with cheap domestic filters with sockets.

This is not bad device, but it don't worth its money I think.

Does the job

Easy set up. Plenty of power slots. I've since bought a second one

Honest

Does it job of powering multiple units, but it doesn't eliminate ground loop hum problems. Had to sell it.

Additional Adapters Would Be Great

It's a good rack unit, but if it came with the correct connectors to accommodate for AC adapters it would have been nice. You can find them on Amazon.

Great "machine"! Everything is so easy to use!

Solid option for the price

I'm using this to power some external pre-amps and some computer equipment.

It's easy to use, includes a number of cables and is a sturdy solid piece. Easy to see when it's left on too with the giant orange button on the front. The front facing outlet is really useful too as I sometimes pull out the odd piece I wouldn't use everyday (tape machine, synth etc) and pop it on my desk and there's a power outlet right there. Kudos to whomever thought of that.

I've had no issues with surges etc. I'm in a new build and the power seems to be very good anyway. I bought this as an extra precaution for some of my vintage gear. To be able to turn it all on and off with one switch is helpful too.

I've very little negative to say. It does exactly what I expected and exactly what it mentioned it would do. I've had no issue with it at all.

Great little unit, cheaper than the rest

I have this unit as the base power outlet for my whole studio rig. It does exactly what it says on the tin and for much cheaper than the competition.

I especially like the unswitched socket on the front panel, so I can power any single piece of outboard gear (Eg instrument Amp) without having to turn on my whole system

Budget price without budget performance - reassurance also for connecting expensive pieces of equipment.

very happy with this purchase.

Simple and effective

This is a simple, sensible way to handle power distribution for a rack. In a bid to do away with a rats' nest of cabling, I installed one of these in the base of each of my 19" rack bays, and spent a happy afternoon carefully looming power cables down to the power conditioner and audio cables up to the mixing desk area, keeping the two sets as separate as possible The AHPCS10 does require you to either rewire to IEC, or buy IEC leads; but it keeps things very tidy and packs a lot of outputs into a small space. The conditioning element is really useful, since the mains current in my building can be spiky and noisy; with this in line, I'm reassured that the pricier synths are protected and will function well. All in all it's a simple, unobtrusive little piece of kit that does its job well.

Less plugs!

Don't really know what to say. But now I've got all my AC powered equipment powered from 1 plug. Great! Nice and easy and frees up precious other plug real-estate.
