Torus Power AVR-2 ELITE 16 CE

The Torus Power AVR-2 ELITE 16 CE is a high-end power conditioner designed for audio and video enthusiasts. Combining advanced toroidal isolation technology, precise automatic voltage regulation, and remote control features, this device offers unmatched protection against electrical disturbances while optimizing the performance of your audio/video equipment.

Revolutionary Isolation Technology

At the heart of the AVR-2 ELITE 16 CE is a massive toroidal transformer, a true shield against impurities in the electrical grid. This isolation technology creates a physical barrier between your sensitive equipment and the power grid, effectively eliminating background noise, electromagnetic interference, and unwanted harmonics. The result? Purer sound, deeper bass, and a sharper, more stable video image.

The automatic voltage regulation (AVR) maintains a stable output voltage of 230V (+/- 8V), regardless of input voltage fluctuations between 170V and 270V. This stability is crucial for the optimal performance of your high-end audio/video devices, which are often sensitive to voltage variations.

A Fortress Against Electrical Disturbances

The AVR-2 ELITE 16 CE goes far beyond a simple surge protector. Its series mode surge suppression technology provides military-grade protection against voltage spikes, lightning, and other potentially destructive electrical anomalies. In extreme conditions, the system automatically cuts power to protect your valuable equipment, then safely restores it once the situation normalizes.

Optical isolation between high and low voltage circuits enhances the system’s overall safety, reducing the risk of damage in the event of catastrophic failure and ensuring compliance with the strictest safety standards.

Intelligent Control and Advanced Programming

The AVR-2 ELITE 16 CE is not just a passive guardian. It offers an unprecedented level of control and customization through the Torus Power Connect platform. This intuitive interface allows you to monitor electrical parameters in real-time, program complex power-up sequences, and even automatically reboot your routers and modems in case of connection loss.

The seven output sockets are individually addressable, enabling you to create distinct power zones for different groups of equipment. You can program up to six events per day per zone, optimizing energy consumption and extending the lifespan of your devices.

The large front LCD screen clearly displays essential data such as input and output voltage, current consumption, and total power. In case of an anomaly, the system instantly alerts you via email, allowing you to act quickly to protect your investment.

Transcendent Audio and Video Quality

The impact of the AVR-2 ELITE 16 CE on audio and video performance is often described as transformative by audiophiles and cinephiles. By eliminating electrical noise and providing stable, clean power, the device allows your equipment to operate under optimal conditions.

For audio, this translates to a wider and deeper soundstage, finer details, and improved instrument separation. Bass gains in definition and impact, while highs become more airy and natural. For video, you can expect richer and more accurate colors, deeper blacks, and enhanced sharpness, particularly noticeable on large 4K and 8K screens.

Versatility and Extended Compatibility

With its 3840 VA output power and maximum current of 16 A, the AVR-2 ELITE 16 CE is capable of powering complete audio/video systems, from modest setups to the most ambitious ones. It is compatible with a wide range of equipment, from digital sources to power amplifiers, as well as high-end projectors and televisions.

The integrated WiFi connectivity and USB port offer future expansion options, allowing the device to adapt to the evolution of your setup over time. Password-protected control ensures that only authorized individuals can modify critical settings.

Simple Installation for Immediate Benefits

Despite its advanced capabilities, the AVR-2 ELITE 16 CE remains relatively simple to install and configure. Once connected to your local network, the web interface guides you through the initial setup process. Firmware updates are performed automatically via WiFi, ensuring your device always benefits from the latest improvements and security fixes.

To get the most out of your investment, it is recommended to hire a professional installer who can optimize the device’s placement, manage cable routing, and configure advanced settings based on your specific setup.
