The Super Black Box is an advanced power supply amplifier designed to enhance the performance of various OCTAVE integrated and power amplifiers, such as the V 40 (SE), V 50, V 70 (SE), V 70 Class A, V 80 (SE), V 110 (SE), V 16 Single Ended, and models like the RE 280 MK2, RE 290, RE 320, MRE 130, and MRE 220 (SE). This powerful external unit, available in either silver or black, builds on the proven technology of the Black Box by significantly increasing the power supply's capacitance. This enhancement, which expands capacitance by 10 times compared to the original amplifiers, provides a crucial boost for handling speakers with challenging impedances, even those as low as 2 ohms.

OCTAVE's integration of Black Box technology offers a solution to optimize amplifier performance in relation to the connected speakers, making it a distinctive feature of their brand. The Super Black Box ensures improved dynamic and tonal stability, crucially determined by the capacity and stability of the power supply. By stabilizing current delivery and minimizing impedance interactions, it enhances various sonic attributes such as dynamic range, separation, soundstage depth, and articulation. This results in clearer and more articulate musical reproduction across the frequency spectrum.

This accessory also provides resilience against fluctuations and interference in the power mains, benefitting from the noise filtering properties inherent to the capacitors. Beyond performance improvements, notable attributes include its dimensions of 200 x 150 x 350 mm, weight of 5.6 kg, and a standard cable length of 1 meter, with the possibility of custom lengths upon request. The Super Black Box is equipped with discharge electronics capable of discharging in 2 seconds, adding to its practicality and ease of use.
