Entreq are the forefathers of electrically lowering the noise floor. Per-Olof Friberg has been researching, testing and refining methods to remove unwanted noise from the audio chain primarily via his pioneering Ground Boxes. They’ve also created exceptionally well crafted equipment supports in the form of Athena and Wilma which work to dampen micro vibrations from the equipment and in the case of level 2 Athena shelves, also help to draw away RFI from the component to an attached ground box.
The clue to their purpose is in the name. Entreq quite literally stands for energy transforming equipment. Their products, in the simplest terms, work to transform unwanted energies in your audio system into heat. Their Vibbeaters do precisely this job. Their playful mouse-shaped exterior holds a closely guarded secret which is the specific mineral mix, decades in the making.
Entreq continue to be at the vanguard of research in this field and this year they have introduced two new products to their range both of which offer brand new approaches and game-changing performance.
Protectus
Protectus is a unit that sits beneath a component such as an amplifier and works in two ways to lower the noise floor. It utilises the entire surface area of the Protectus to remove micro-vibrations and in addition, the chassis of the component can be attached to the ground post on the rear of Protectus offering chassis grounding to drain away unwanted RFI from the audio chain.
MaxMix T2 Kit
The MaxMix T2 Kit is considerably smaller in size but no less dramatic in its effect on your system. The kit comprises of two Max T ground posts and two Mix T2 posts which attach to the positive and negative terminals at the loudspeakers. These posts, as well as reducing physical micro-vibrations, contain a specific and special combination of metal windings which in tandem work to both reduce vibrations at the terminals and more importantly to influence/reduce the magnetic fields around the terminals. The result is a lowered noise level, increased dynamics, and significantly better signal flow.

Per-Olof has written an extensive post on these ground breaking new products on the Entreq website. We urge you to have a read and find out more.
We now have stock in the UK and we would encourage you to contact your local Entreq retailer to book a demo of these extraordinary new products. We believe them to be a groundbreaking new take and represent two fantastic ways to take the sound from your setup to the next level.
