Juice Bar II 

We would recommend that you power the entire system down before attempting to connect 
equipment to the Juice Bar.

Plug the Juice Bar into an AC receptacle with at least 15 amps of service (in the US) or 7.5 amps of 
service (in 220 volt countries), preferably using a dedicated AC line.  A dedicated line means there is 
nothing else plugged into the wiring feeding the AC receptacle and that wiring returns directly to the 
AC breaker box.  

If you are using the Juice Bar as a standalone power extender, our fi rst recommendation on where 
to connect your new Juice Bar would be a PS Soloist in-wall device.  The Soloist provides the fi rst 
stage of cleaning and protection in the PS Power System and is an elegant in-wall solution.  Our 
second choice is a PS Power Port AC receptacle.  While not as good as a Soloist (the Power Port 
has no cleaning or protection capabilities) it is certainly preferable to a $1.99 “contractor special” 
brass contact AC receptacle found in most of our homes.  

Be careful where you plug in as some outlets are “switched” outlets and may be powered on or off 
with the wall switch unexpectedly.

If you are using the Juice Bar as an adjunct to a Power Plant Premier or Quintessence Power Center, 
then simply choose any unused IsoZone on the rear of the Power Plant or Quintessence to connect 
the Juice Bar.

Use the heaviest gauge shielded AC power cable you can to connect a Juice Bar to its AC source.  
The heavier the gauge used, the less the chance for restricted dynamics in both audio and video 
systems.  

Once the Juice Bar has been connected to an AC source it is time to connect your equipment.  
Each Juice Bar has 4 receptacles.  In 120 volt units, each of the 4 receptacles has two outlets for a 
total of 8 outlets.  

Each outlet should be used to help isolate different genres of equipment from each other.  For 
instance, you can group digital equipment together on a single outlet or multiple analog sources on 
yet another outlet.  

It is important to use only the highest quality AC power cords that are well shielded to any 
connected equipment.  It is a good idea to keep in mind that all equipment generates radiated noise 
when it is operating.  This radiated noise is harmful to both audio and video system performance and 
is typically carried down the AC power line.
