Description

The Acoustic Revive IP-2Q Input Non-Shorting RCA is a high-quality RCA cap designed to protect unused RCA input terminals on your audio equipment from noise, interference, and dust. Unlike traditional shorting plugs, which can sometimes cause signal degradation or grounding issues, the IP-2Q offers a non-shorting design that preserves signal purity while preventing external interference. This accessory is an ideal addition for audiophiles and professionals who seek to maintain the optimal performance of their high-end audio systems.

Key Features

  1. Non-Shorting Design:
    • The IP-2Q features a non-shorting design, meaning it does not connect the signal and ground terminals within the RCA jack. This prevents potential grounding issues and avoids any negative impact on your audio equipment’s performance. It is designed to maintain signal integrity while blocking interference from unused input terminals.
  2. Tourmaline and Quartz Integration:
    • The IP-2Q is treated with tourmaline and quartz, natural minerals known for their ability to generate negative ions. These minerals help neutralize static electricity around the RCA terminals, reducing noise and improving overall signal clarity, resulting in cleaner and more detailed sound reproduction.
  3. High-Quality Construction:
    • Crafted with high-quality materials, the IP-2Q offers durability and long-term protection for your audio equipment. The precision-machined metal cap ensures a snug and secure fit on any standard RCA input terminal.
  4. Gold-Plated Contacts:
    • The IP-2Q features gold-plated internal contacts that provide excellent conductivity and resistance to oxidation and corrosion. This ensures a stable and reliable connection, maintaining optimal performance over time.
  5. Vibration-Damping Properties:
    • The IP-2Q has vibration-damping properties that help reduce microphonic noise caused by vibrations around the RCA terminals. This leads to improved audio clarity and reduced distortion, especially in high-fidelity audio systems.
  6. Dust and Dirt Protection:
    • By covering unused RCA input terminals, the IP-2Q prevents dust, dirt, and other contaminants from entering the connections. This helps maintain the cleanliness and longevity of your audio equipment, ensuring consistent performance.

Benefits

  • Noise Reduction: The combination of tourmaline and quartz helps to neutralize static electricity and electromagnetic interference, resulting in a cleaner and more transparent audio signal.
  • Enhanced Sound Clarity: By preventing unwanted interference and reducing vibration, the IP-2Q contributes to improved sound clarity, detail, and overall fidelity in your audio system.
  • Protection for Your Equipment: The IP-2Q effectively protects unused RCA input terminals from dust, dirt, and oxidation, helping to extend the life and performance of your audio equipment.

Who Is It For?

The Acoustic Revive IP-2Q Input Non-Shorting RCA is ideal for audiophiles, audio enthusiasts, and professionals who want to maintain the highest level of sound quality in their high-end audio systems. It is particularly beneficial for those looking to eliminate noise and interference while protecting their equipment from dust and dirt.

Applications

  • High-Fidelity Audio Systems: Suitable for use with high-end audio components such as amplifiers, preamplifiers, DACs, and CD players to prevent noise from unused RCA inputs.
  • Home Theater Systems: Helps maintain optimal audio performance in home theater setups by reducing interference from unused inputs.
  • Professional Audio Equipment: Ideal for recording studios, mastering environments, or any professional audio setup where maintaining signal integrity is crucial.

How to Use

  1. Identify any unused RCA input terminals on your audio equipment.
  2. Insert the IP-2Q cap into each unused RCA terminal, ensuring a secure fit.
  3. Enjoy improved sound quality and reduced interference as the IP-2Q begins to work.

Technical Specifications

  • Material: High-quality metal construction with tourmaline and quartz treatment
  • Contacts: Gold-plated for optimal conductivity and resistance to oxidation
  • Design: Non-shorting, vibration-damping

The Acoustic Revive IP-2Q Input Non-Shorting RCA is an excellent accessory for anyone looking to optimize the performance of their audio system by reducing noise, interference, and vibration from unused RCA input terminals. Its non-shorting design, combined with tourmaline and quartz treatment, ensures that your audio signals remain clean, accurate, and free from static electricity. Whether you’re an audiophile aiming for the highest level of sound fidelity or a professional seeking to maintain pristine signal quality in your equipment, the IP-2Q offers a simple yet highly effective solution for enhancing your audio experience.

The QR-8 includes a quartz resonator and a special vibration-damping sheet at no extra cost. The analog and digital input terminals of audio equipment can pick up noise, which can impact sound quality and equipment stability. Plugging in short pins or plugs in the empty input terminals can prevent noise contamination, stabilize equipment operation, and significantly improve sound quality by enhancing the S/N ratio, sound imaging, and reducing distortion.

Additionally, the anti-vibration plugs for unused RCA output terminals are made of a hybrid structure of duralumin and brass and utilize non-conductive material and special vibration-damping materials to effectively suppress vibration.

Principle and structure

Remember the following information: Empty analog and digital input terminals on devices can act as antennas, allowing noise to enter, which significantly degrades the signal-to-noise ratio and sound quality.

By shorting the input terminals, you can prevent noise from entering the equipment and stabilize its operation, leading to improved sound quality. Furthermore, many devices have input terminals made of thin plates, making them susceptible to vibration. Using a material with high specific gravity and rigidity for the short pin can significantly improve sound quality by suppressing vibrations near the terminals.

Uses materials and processing techniques with excellent vibration suppression effects

The SIP-8Q is constructed using a blend of brass and 2017 aviation-grade aluminum alloy to improve the vibration suppression effect. This construction firmly secures the terminals and delivers outstanding vibration suppression. Additionally, ultra-high precision machining is employed to eliminate any play and enhance vibration control. The vibration suppression effect can be further improved by attaching the provided natural quartz resonator QR-8.

 

Anti-vibration pin for output terminal IP-2Q

“The device, like the SIP-8Q, has a hybrid structure made of brass and 2017S aviation-grade aluminum alloy, a natural quartz resonator, and a completely non-magnetic structure. When inserted into the RCA output terminal, it provides high-level vibration control and significantly improves sound quality, including sound image positioning and signal-to-noise ratio.”

Completely non-magnetic structure

SIP-8Q features a non-magnetic structure, such as direct gold plating, which eliminates magnetic distortion and preserves sound quality.

Technology that further improves vibration damping

Please take note of the following information: Both the SIP-8Q and IP-2Q now come with our proprietary natural quartz resonator QR-8 at the same price. The special vibration-damping material that was previously included is a sound quality adjustment material. It applies a new material developed by Professor Masao Sumita of the Tokyo Institute of Technology Graduate School with pre-venture support from the Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST).

This material converts vibration energy from electrical energy to thermal energy and eliminates it, boasting high vibration-damping properties. Both the QR-8 and the vibration-proof sheet are included in the package. Please use them while listening to the change in sound quality. The sound will become clearer, and the bass will become thicker and more projected, improving the dynamism. Conversely, if the sound pressure decreases, the sense of dynamism is diminished, and the sound becomes too muted.

This will be considered overdamping, in which case you should adjust the number of stickers you use. If you use QR-8 and special vibration-damping material together, first apply the QR-8 and then apply the special vibration-damping material on top of it. Note: Do not connect the SIP-8Q to the output terminal, REC out terminal, etc., as this will result in no sound being produced.

Note: This is often effective for digital output terminals on CD transporters and other devices, but please be sure to check with the manufacturer or distributor before using the SIP-8Q to ensure there are no problems.
