I am clearing out some small items which I am no longer using in my system. All are in excellent condition. These include a number of Alan Maher Quantum Plug In devices:
1 x Magnetic Waveguide. This cost $279.95. I am looking for $135. [SOLD[
2 x Quantum Plug In (QPIs): one Platinum (Pt) model and one Gold (Au) model. The Platinum model cost $280 and the Gold model cost $250. Time for a massive price cut. I can't use these items in my system any longer, so it make sense to slash the price and let someone else see what these items can do. These QPIs are designed to work together, so I would sell them together for $120. BOTH NOW SOLD
I also have one older Alan Maher product, an Infinity Shield. Note that this older generation product is NOT compatible with the QPIs and should not be mixed with them in the same system. If you already have some of Alan Maher's early generation products, this could be one for you. I am pricing this at $35.All prices include paypal fees and postage within the CONUS.
Here is some information on these products:
From the Alan Maher website: the Magnetic Waveguide
Typical Magnetic Waveguides cancel out frequency within a magnetic field and reflect the field back to the electrical circuit with increased capacitance – the capacitance produced by the waveguide’s rare earth / resonator interaction shifts noise to a higher order harmonic. The process is very simple – they use a rare earth magnetic to pull the electrical field out of the wall to a filter resonator to produce an odd harmonic – the newly created harmonic is then reflected back to the circuit by using a microwave reflector – the process alters the frequency of harmonics riding above 50/60Hz which eventually introduce noise at the power supply - the harmonic alters circuit impedance which disrupts the function of the power supply’s PI choke cut frequency – the end result is an audible change for the Audiophile due to the added harmonic distortion into the component’s power supply.
Our QPI Magnetic Wave Guide breaks the mold of the typical waveguide to redesign the entire concept and harnesses the true nature of electrical energy. No more audio trickery by adding harmonic distortion into a circuit calling it “clean power”. The AM Designs QPI Magnetic Wave Guide incorporates our Exclusive Magnetic Flywheel design to produce an infinite coupled magnetic field with the in-wall wiring – no energy is drawn into the filter to manipulate circuit capacitance or raise circuit impedance – all filtering is done in an inductive field. The QPI MWG establishes a controlled tri-filtered magnetic field which absorbs high frequency circuit noise and increases power factor.
From the Alan Maher website: the
Quantum Plug-InThe Quantum Plug-In is a conductive based RFI/EMI parallel filter design. The QPI is offered in four (4) different tonal "flavors" (Cu, Ag, Au, Pt) that are very similar to the sound quality of a “mega-buck” Audiophile power conditioner.
Our philosophy is we don't just treat the last 6 to 12 feet of your A/V circuit at one centralized location. If you went around your home and counted the many electrical outlets and light switches that are installed, you would have an equal amount of potential noise sources. RF enters the electrical phase through open outlet receptacles, oxidized wiring and contact surfaces, and voltage instability. A typical home has about 150 to 200 potential noise sources, all ringing at the same time throughout the electrical phase. It is virtually impossible to address even 10% of the combined noise at a single centralized filtering location (not to mention the other 90% of potential noise problems). The most effective way to apply filtering in a home should be over distance; it is simpler to suppress noise at various locations around the home instead of trying to focus at one centralized location. Our methodology is to treat the home as one gigantic power conditioner and allow the entire home to reap the benefit of corrected power factor and harmonic filtering.
The QPI is one of our oldest and most reliable filter designs, developed in the late 1990’s as a simple parallel filter. As digital audio and video components evolved over the years, we expanded our research and development to meet the needs of higher resolution A/V reproduction.
As part of our Smart Grid technology product development, the QPI series is designed to draw zero wattage from the wall.

QPI Au
Our QPI Au is specifically designed to filter solid state audio components and provide a "tube-like" organic sound quality. The QPI Au removes the upper mid glare and fleshes out the harmonic tonal structure of 20Hz-20KHz without rolling-off frequency extremes. It provides an effortless and endless top end extension that is unattainable using any other type of filtering method (that we are currently aware of).
Filter Bandwidth: dc-40Ghz
Noise Reduction: -85db evenly across the filtering bandwidth
QPI Pt
Our QPI Pt is our latest QPI design. Unlike tradational platinum designs, the QPI Pt has a warmer and more robust sound quality with a delicate reproduction of harmonic structure. The QPI Pt is superb with solid state and tube digital components. The QPI Pt digs deep into the recording and extracts every last bit of detail without sounding dry and etched. In addition, the QPI Pt offers a wet musical presentation with superb stage reproduction, musical layering and depth.
Filter bandwidth: dc-65GHz
Noise Reduction: -90db evenly across the filtering bandwidth
