The 1.5RQ balanced power system from Equi=Tech provides musicians with clean, consistent power for high-end audio equipment. With 12 outlets—including four filtered outlets for sensitive digital components—the 1.5RQ protects your gear from power surges and distortion. Its heavy-duty transformer and Mil-Spec wiring reduce interference and allow amplifiers and other high-current devices to operate as intended. An anodized aluminum front panel looks stylish while clearly indicating power status and the 1.5RQ's compact size lets you place it nearly anywhere.
Clean, Balanced Power for Crystal-Clear Sound
The 1.5RQ balanced power system delivers pure, regulated AC power to your audio components so you can experience music as the artist intended. Its balanced power design removes common power line noise and provides an isolated ground for each outlet, eliminating interference between connected devices. The result is tighter bass, clearer highs and a soundstage so lifelike you'll feel like you're at a live show. For the best performance from high-end amplifiers, preamps and other gear, balanced power is a must.
Heavy-Duty Components for Reliable Operation
At the heart of the 1.5RQ is a transformer made of premium magnetic steel alloy, providing twice the power of comparable units. High-current Mil-Spec wiring and hospital-grade outlets are built to withstand the demands of high-powered amplifiers and other professional equipment.

Its durable components provide consistent power and help ensure years of reliable operation.
Convenient Front Panel Controls and Monitoring
The 1.5RQ balanced power system features an intuitive front panel that makes it easy to monitor power levels and control each connected device. LEDs clearly show the power status for the 1.5RQ's transformer as well as each of its 12 rear-panel outlets.

An LED voltmeter displays input or output voltage to help ensure optimal levels for your gear. Sophisticated yet simple to operate, the 1.5RQ puts you in complete control of your power.
