Features & Specs
ZERO DC Block Technology (up to 1,200mV)
Actively prevents DC offset on the mains from reaching your equipment, addressing a major cause of toroidal transformer buzzing and performance instability.
Hum reduction for cleaner listening
By removing DC-induced mechanical vibration and related noise artifacts, the system’s background becomes quieter—helping fine detail and clarity come through more naturally.
Designed for high-power equipment
With a 10A continuous current rating and up to ≤14A maximum current rating, it’s built to suit demanding amplifiers and AV components that typical solutions may not handle confidently.
Worldwide voltage support
The 90–250V rating makes it a simple drop-in upgrade across regions, ideal for international systems or relocations.
Premium connectivity and noise control
Hospital-grade IEC connectors provide secure contact, while EMI shielding is retained to continue suppressing unwanted interference.
Compact, practical installation
The inline IEC form factor is purposely sized to avoid blocking adjacent sockets and cables, making it easy to add behind crowded racks and power strips.

iFi SilentPower DC Blocker+
SilentPower’s DC Blocker+ is a high-performance DC offset filter that installs at your component’s IEC power inlet to stop unwanted DC voltage from riding on the AC mains. By blocking incoming DC (up to 1,200mV), it helps eliminate transformer mechanical hum, improves transformer efficiency, and can reduce heat—so your amplifier, DAC, or AV gear runs quieter and sounds cleaner. Built for demanding systems, it’s globally compatible (90–250V) and engineered for high-power equipment with a 10A continuous current rating and up to ≤14A maximum current rating. Hospital-grade IEC connectors, retained EMI shielding, and a compact chassis make it an easy, confidence-inspiring upgrade that won’t get in the way of other plugs and cables. If your toroidal transformer is buzzing, the DC Blocker+ is the simple “fit-and-forget” fix that restores quiet backgrounds and uninterrupted listening.
What It's Good At:
Eliminating transformer mechanical hum caused by DC offset on the mains
Improving system quietness for cleaner detail, tighter bass definition, and better clarity
Supporting high-power amplifiers and AV gear with a 10A continuous current rating
Maintaining EMI shielding for ongoing noise suppression without compromising safety
Clean, compact IEC-in/IEC-out installation that won’t block nearby sockets or cables
Delivering dependable, premium connectivity with hospital-grade IEC connectors

iFi SilentPower DC Blocker+ Q&A:
Will the DC Blocker+ stop transformer hum in my amplifier?
Yes—DC Blocker+ is designed to block unwanted DC voltage on the AC mains (up to 1,200mV), a common cause of toroidal transformer mechanical hum.
Where do I install the DC Blocker+?
Install it inline at the component’s power inlet: plug the DC Blocker+ male IEC into your device, then connect your existing IEC power cable into the DC Blocker+ female IEC.
Is it safe to use with expensive audio equipment?
It is designed to preserve equipment safety while addressing DC offset, and it retains EMI shielding for continued noise suppression.
Will it work in my country’s voltage?
Yes. It’s globally compatible and rated for 90–250V operation.
Can I use it with high-power amplifiers and AV receivers?
Yes. It’s built for high-power equipment with a 10A continuous current rating (≤14A maximum) and supports high amplifier power demands.
Does it improve sound quality or only reduce hum?
By removing DC-induced transformer noise and helping reduce interference, it can lower noise floors and improve perceived clarity, focus, and overall listening comfort.
Will it block other plugs or cables behind my gear?
Unlikely—the compact design is intended not to obstruct nearby connectors and cables.
What comes included with the DC Blocker+?
You receive the DC Blocker+ and a user manual for quick, straightforward setup.
