Due to the ZiTron Anaconda's top of the product range cost and performance, it must be considered an exclusive product for only the world's finest professional, critical and consumer systems. The ZiTron Anaconda will offer dramatic performance improvements used with virtually any system component. Even a single seven-gauge Anaconda placed on a critical source component, amplifier, Hydra or other power distributor will deliver an increase in dynamics, low-level resolution and clarity the likes of which no other power cord or exotic power conditioners can offer.

In near mint condition. 20A version ideal for use with all Shunyata conditioners, and Audio Research equipment among others.

KEF's patented Uni-Q technology places each speaker's 1" tweeter in the acoustic center of a 5" midrange driver. This concentric array allows sounds to originate from a single point source, making the "sweet spot" (the ideal listening position) much larger.

Each speaker also contains a 6-1/2" aluminum woofer with a cool-looking flat design and silver trim ring that caught my eye. Massive magnet structures and large aluminum voice coils help these woofers kick out tight, musical bass.

Product highlights:
*3-way design
*1" vented aluminum dome tweeter with waveguide
*5" magnesium/aluminum midrange driver
*the tweeter and midrange use KEF's Uni-Q technology, which places the tweeter in the center of the midrange driver
*this specialized positioning creates a large listening "sweet spot" in your room
*6-1/2" aluminum woofer
*frequency response: 50-28,000 Hz (±3 dB)
*sensitivity: 88 dB
*impedance: 8 ohms
*recommended amplifier power: 25-120 watts
*bass-reflex cabinet with CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) rear-firing ports for accurate, musical bass
*nickel-plated binding posts accept pins, banana connectors, or bare wire
*two sets of input terminals allow bi-amping or bi-wiring
*high-gloss piano black finish
*detachable magnetic cloth grilles

In absolutely mint condition! comes with magnetic grills and wooden speaker stands.

Very exclusive Reference power cord from Ansuz Acoustics.

It is always difficult to talk about sound at Powercords. Yet it is true that the Powercords used have a major influence on the sound quality of your installation. Ansuz from Denmark has been making top quality cables for a long time, including these Diamond Power cords.

Previous top model in the Ansuz range of cables.

Shunyata founder Caelin Gabriel designed the Alpha Digital to reduce the noise floor on all types of digital electronics, whether digital audio or video. It renders unmistakable improvement on digital players, DACs, Class-D amps, Blu-ray players, audio and video servers, and all other digital and video gear. The first and only power cable to act as a power-line conditioner on its own, the Alpha Digital Power Cord will simply leave you with your jaw on the floor.

Shunyata's Zitron Anaconda Interconnects host a wealth of technical innovations which deliver a shocking performance. Despite the Anaconda's standard-setting performance, Shunyata Research has gone to great lengths to ensure that its Statement Interconnect design will be defined first, by its unprecedented value.

Cohergenic Conductors
Shunyata uses a specially designed electromagnetic field to align the molecular structure of their copper conductors. Applied during the extrusion process, the result is greater coherency and superior conductivity.

Alpha Cryo Process
Shunyata Research cryogenically treats all wire and electrical contacts used in the production of its signal cables. A state-of-the-art computer controlled chamber is used to lower the temperature of the contents to -320 degrees Fahrenheit. This exclusive process uses a proprietary combination of gases to enhance the cryogenic treatment.

CDA-101 Copper
CDA-101 copper is the highest purity copper available, with signed certifications to verify its authenticity and purity. Shunyata Research exclusively uses CDA-101 copper for their electrical products, from signal cables to power cords and power conditioners.

VTX Wire Geometry
Long known for ultra-complex wire geometries which measurably improve conductivity and desirable characteristics, Shunyata has developed a new geometry which greatly reduces the so-called “skin-effect”. Skin-effect is a distortion caused by differing speeds of conductivity between the centre of the conductor (where the bass travels) and the outer part or skin of the conductor where the midrange and treble travel. Skin-effect plagues both stranded and solid core wire, causing smearing, timing and phase errors, in some cases even changes in tonal balance. The ideal conductor is a hollow tube, but this is wildly impractical in the real world, so using DTCD analysis, Shunyata created a new type of wire geometry which is a “virtual tube” greatly reducing skin effect and improving conductivity.

All Vanguard models feature discrete signal paths
from input to output and employ a wide bandwidth
design with low negative feedback for sonic accuracy throughout the frequency spectrum. All circuits up to the driver stage operate in pure Class A.

Krell’s surface mount technology (SMT) means that
Vanguard components employ the most sophisticated
circuit designs possible without requiring the typical space. This combination of sophisticated circuitry and small space makes it possible to
design and manufacture a very high powered 200W
per channel amplifier in a small enclosure.

The Theater Throughput (Digital Vanguard
Integrated Amplifier and Vanguard Integrated
Amplifier) feature provides easy integration of these models into a home theater system.

In excellent condition, and includes remote, owner's manual and original shipping box.

The Ansuz Acoustics Mainz D8 Diamond power distributors are pinnacle products giving your HiFi-components the very best working conditions. Models differ in design and of course in the amount of built-in technologies in each quality level.

Ansuz Mainz D8 diamond power distributors will supply a steady flow of current to even the most demanding High End system. With an massive capacity of grounding through star grounding technology, all models deliver the perfect groundwork for High End performance.


The Ansuz Mainz D8 Diamond each have 8 dedicated mains outlets and all features the same extremely low impedance star grounding system. Ansuz Mainz8 power distributors basically distributes mains power and the effective ground connection and the top levels are packed with technology and the experience we have gained from our work with Audio R&D. A signature features to all Ansuz power distributors, the outlets are mounted sideways so that the connected cables do not tear up in all directions but can easily be arranged along the floor or behind a rack system. No efforts are spared to achieve a design with soft lines and organic shapes making the Mainz8 power distributors high performing, functional and beautiful at the same time.



FEATURES:

Star grounding
High gage grounding
Horizontal mounted connections
Darkz connections for mechanical grounding
Separate ground connection on the side for parallel coupling between more Ansuz Mainz 8’s
Non Hysteresis design (no aluminum)
6 Sparkz + 12 SparkzTC inside Mainz D8

The Beast was designed in Bellach, near Bern with the express purpose of producing a best-of-breed animal, where money is no object. It was conceived when Gerhardt Schneider, the Swiss manufacturer of Acustic Lab speakers, approached US company ReQuest (which builds Linux-based music servers) with the idea to build the ultimate high‑end server. Following the financial input of a private investor, ReQuest Switzerland AG was founded, which then bought its US partner. MSB joined the party and the Beast was born.

MSB says it is a "technology partner" producing the internal DAC board to provide good quality analogue outputs. The Beast also has MSB’s Pro I2S connection for use with MSB DACs.

This unit includes an MSB DAC and Galaxy Clock which has noise performance with a guaranteed jitter measurement (at the worse case) of less than 77 femtoseconds (0.077 picoseconds). Anyone who has played around with clocks and CD players, will know about the dramatic difference a good clock can make to the bass performance, soundstage and overall timing of the sound and this is no exception.

In excellent condition. This unit comes with 2TB of internal storage and original flight case.
