Personalised balanced mains from Russ Andrews – the BMU1500 mkII

12 Oct 2018

Russ Andrews Accessories is introducing the latest version of its BMU1500 Balanced Mains Unit to provide a colossal 1.5kVA of clean power, individually tailored to each installation, to provide superior music and movie reproduction.

 

Working on the same principle as balanced audio signals - where the audio signal is split into two halves; negative and positive - the BMU1500 mkII splits the 230v mains signal into two separate 115v supplies. One is carried on the live and the other on the neutral and as each is a different polarity (negative or positive) the noise on one is cancelled out by the noise on the other. The result is a 230v power supply that is free from noise and hence provides the connected equipment with a cleaner supply.
