This completely filter-less approach mitigates system noise while enhancing dynamics and maintaining bandwidth.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"554\" src=\"https:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/QBase-Reference_Back-Straight_US_blog-1024x554.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8269\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/QBase-Reference_Back-Straight_US_blog-1024x554.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/QBase-Reference_Back-Straight_US_blog-300x162.jpg 300w, https:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/QBase-Reference_Back-Straight_US_blog-768x415.jpg 768w, https:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/QBase-Reference_Back-Straight_US_blog-1536x831.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/QBase-Reference_Back-Straight_US_blog-500x271.jpg 500w, https:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/QBase-Reference_Back-Straight_US_blog.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Q: How does the QBASE Reference differ from the QBASE Mark III?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A: Like the QBASE Mark III, the QBASE Reference is, at its core, a passive distribution component that uses star-earth topology to direct the signal and ground paths of system components to minimize the noise floor.&nbsp; But it\u2019s much more than that.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the QBASE Reference, we have added a dual primary earth design to our star earth topology, which is a first in our line. We have also upgraded the internal monofilament wiring and enhanced the board traces over those in the QB8, to allow the QBASE Reference to handle more current.&nbsp; Another benefit to the QBASE Reference is the addition of more outlets, power cord connector supports, and even built-in, resonance control, Sort Supports.&nbsp; However it is the internal enhancements that account for the extreme noise elimination accomplished by the QBASE Reference, and that is achieved through the addition of multiple internal QSINE and QWAVE devices and specifically optimized QPOINT technology.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"808\" src=\"https:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/qb10-1024x808.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8267\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/qb10-1024x808.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/qb10-300x237.jpg 300w, https:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/qb10-768x606.jpg 768w, https:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/qb10-1536x1212.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/qb10-2048x1616.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/qb10-380x300.jpg 380w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Q: How should I position the QBASE Reference in my sound system?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A: Place the QBASE Reference on a stable, solid surface, ideally on a dedicated shelf of an audio rack or an amp stand.
