What a Max post does
Entreq Max posts are designed to influence the electromagnetic behaviour at the reference point of a Corepoint unit or a ground box. Every Max post contains a specific configuration of materials, housed in a wooden body, whose combination of diamagnetic, paramagnetic and ferromagnetic properties acts upon the electromagnetic field at the reference point. The result is a significant change in the performance of the cable or box to which the Max post is attached — and a way of refining that performance to suit the system, the room and the listener.
Platinum at the heart of Max Platinum
Max Platinum takes Platinum as its principal active material. A precious, dense metal with extraordinary electromagnetic stability and unique conductive properties, Platinum occupies a revered position in Entreq’s hierarchy of materials, reserved for our highest-performing grounding solutions. Where Max Platinum is applied, Platinum’s singular contribution to silence, air, effortless resolution, and harmonic texture becomes immediately apparent throughout the system to which the host product is connected.
Characteristics
We consider each Max post an upgrade on the one before, and Max Platinum sits significantly above our foundational Max T. In our system, it delivers exceptional transparency, expansive headroom, and remarkable speed across the entire frequency range, with an open, natural treble and an eerily quiet background that reveals previously hidden micro-details. It expands the soundstage in all three dimensions with pinpoint imaging. That’s our finding, in our reference system. Every system responds in its own way, and how the Max Platinum behaves in yours is something only your system can tell you.
A simple, open-ended architecture
Every Entreq Corepoint unit and every Entreq ground box includes a threaded post supplied with a plain wooden cap as standard. To fit Max Platinum, simply unscrew the standard wooden cap and screw the Max Platinum post in its place, securing the ERS wire or grounding cable to the host product as it goes. The change in performance is immediately apparent.
Because every Corepoint and ground box shares the same threaded post, any Max post can be tried, swapped or upgraded at any time. The architecture is open-ended by design.
Hand-built in Sweden
Max Platinum is hand-built at our facility in Sweden. Each post houses its specific configuration of materials in a wooden body – wood chosen for its electromagnetic neutrality, allowing the active materials inside the post to do their work without interference from the housing itself. The Platinum configuration in Max Platinum has been developed and refined through extensive testing on our reference system.
Use with Corepoint Ground Boxes and Tuss Kit
Max Platinum is suitable for use with the Corepoint units supplied with Delphius and Primer Core cables, with Entreq ground boxes including older models that may have been part of your system for years, and with our Tuss Kit. In all applications, the effect is the same: an audible refinement of the host product’s performance, bringing the qualities Platinum contributes into the system to which it is connected.
For Corepoint use, Max Platinum screws onto the threaded post of a Corepoint Signal or Corepoint Power unit. For ground box use, Max Platinum screws onto any of Entreq’s standard ground box binding posts.
Part of the Entreq system
Max Platinum is at its best as part of a properly prepared system. Entreq grounding, Magneus at the entry points, and Protectus, Vibbeaters and MaxMix T2 shaping the field around your components all make the next step more effective. Used together, as a coherent system, Entreq products let your components deliver everything they are capable of.
