about gigawatt
GigaWatt traces its origins to 1998, when Adam Schubert co-founded Power Audio Laboratories in Zgierz, central Poland, to develop power-distribution components for high-end systems. In 2007 the R&D and production arm was split off under the GigaWatt name, dedicating the company entirely to AC conditioning, power distribution, and the cables and connectors that carry mains current into audio gear. The current line is organized around passive LC filtering rather than active regeneration. The flagship PC-4 EVO+ sits at the top at $9,999, with the PC-3 SE EVO+ and more compact conditioners below it, alongside the PowerPrime entry model, dedicated power cables (LS series), wall outlets, and circuit-breaker upgrades. The design principle throughout is low series impedance and surge-rated filtering that suppresses noise without choking high-current draw on power amplifiers. GigaWatt competes in the dedicated power-conditioning niche against names like Shunyata Research, AudioQuest, and Furutech, positioned as a credible second-tier European import rather than a mass brand. US distribution runs through Well Pleased Audio Vida in Tysons Corner, Virginia. Review coverage is the strongest part of its US case: the PC-4 EVO and EVO+ have been written up in hi-fi+, Positive Feedback, and SoundStage Ultra, with additional coverage at HiFi-Advice, giving dealers a multi-publication paper trail. All GigaWatt products are designed and manufactured in Zgierz, Poland, where the company runs its own assembly and measurement facility.
