Ansuz Darkz C3W
Outstanding Musical Refinement
Consists of three discs and ball bearings that focus vibrations into tiny contact points, allowing unwanted resonances to escape and be converted into heat — ensuring effective mechanical grounding. Engineered with a two-fold purpose in mind; to visually blend with any component they’re meant to work under, and to support it, so that its true potential can be unlocked.
Shaft and discs are made of pure copper, a softer material than stainless steel. In theory this model should thus position below the S3W. But in practice copper has a particular tone and resonance pattern that our ears and brains enjoy. As such, it performs better than stainless steel. Features wolfram ball bearings.
Design Philosophy
When defining the exact set-up and the dimensions of the Darkz, Ansuz Acoustics was exclusively guided by its core philosophy to always strive for the ultimate in sound quality. The Ansuz Darkz consists of 3 discs. Each of the upper two discs floats on 3 interlayer balls to ensure excellent handling and absorption of vibrations.
Cryogenic Treatment
The Ansuz Darkz undergo a cryogenic treatment to increase their conductivity. When metal components undergo a cryogenic processing, they are subjected to extreme cooling temperatures of about -321°F (-196° C ). During this process, the crystal structure of the metal contracts more and more. Alloying elements are displaced from the grain structure of the metal, which now becomes very similar to a monocrystal. These structural changes in the metal have profound effects on its audio properties, resulting in a 6-8% increase in conductivity.
