iFi SilentPower PowerStation - Surge Protector
The SilentPower PowerStation (US) is a premium audiophile power strip and mains purifier designed to help your system sound cleaner, clearer, and more dynamic by reducing electrical interference before it reaches your gear. Using proprietary Active Noise Cancellation II, it actively cancels incoming EMI/RFI noise (similar in concept to noise-cancelling headphones), while adding supplemental passive filtering at each outlet to tackle the highest-frequency interference commonly linked to wireless transmission systems. Built for serious hi-fi and AV setups, the PowerStation also helps prevent hum and buzz with Intelligent Ground design and Polarity/Earth Diagnostics, and it adds robust surge suppression to protect valuable components. Housed in a solid, dark anodised aluminium chassis and engineered with PurCopper conductivity throughout key power-transfer paths, it’s an all-in-one upgrade for quieter backgrounds, better stability, and safer power distribution.
What It's Good At:
- Actively reducing mains-borne EMI/RFI to lower perceived noise floor and reveal more detail
- Keeping multi-component systems cleaner by limiting noise interaction between connected devices
- Eliminating common hum/buzz issues with Intelligent Ground and a supplementary earth/ground option
- Protecting valuable audio/AV components with high-capacity surge suppression
- Streamlining setup and troubleshooting with polarity + earth diagnostics
- Powering full hi-fi or home cinema rigs from one premium, installer-friendly power hub

iFi PowerStation Q&A:
- How many outlets does the PowerStation (US) include?
- The US version includes 8 sockets. Other regions vary: UK/EU/AU versions include 6 sockets.
- What does Active Noise Cancellation II actually do for my system?
- It actively cancels incoming EMI/RFI electrical noise by generating an inverse-phase signal, helping reduce interference by up to -40dB and supporting a cleaner, more stable power feed for connected components.
- Will it help with hum or buzz caused by grounding issues?
- Yes. It includes Intelligent Ground (designed to avoid ground-loop problems) plus a supplementary earth/ground option that can help eliminate audible hum/buzz when an earth connection is missing or problematic.
- How do I know if polarity and grounding are correct in my setup?
- The PowerStation features Polarity Earth Diagnostics that indicate correct polarity and whether a proper ground/earth is present, helping you catch issues quickly during setup.
- Can I run my entire AV system from it (TV, receiver, power amps, Blu-ray, etc.)?
- Yes—this is exactly the kind of multi-device setup it’s designed for, delivering cleaner power and protection across your system. The total available power is still limited by what your wall outlet can supply.
- Can I use it with both digital and analogue components?
- Yes. A practical approach is to group digital devices together and analogue devices together to help keep noise contained within each group for cleaner overall performance.
- How strong is the surge protection?
- It provides high-capacity surge suppression rated up to 30,000A @ 1,000V/10uS, designed to protect connected equipment from spikes and electrical disturbances.
- What cable comes in the box, and how long is it?
- The included IEC power cable is 1.5m long with 3 x 18AWG conductors and a 125V/250V rating.
