World-Class Performer In Power Transmission
The Ansuz PowerSwitch D-TC Supreme is the ultimate PowerSwitch . Equipped with Ansuz most sophisticated and most advanced noise reduction, resonance control and dither technologies, this is a world-class, top-of-the-line PowerSwitch. Ultra-fine, authentic and natural resolution of the entire sound spectrum from the very high pitch to the deepest bass opens up a new dimension of musicality and creates a jaw-dropping holistic soundstage that defies any further description.
Technologies and Components
Clean streaming signal.
The Ansuz PowerSwitch has been designed with the aim of delivering a very clean streaming signal to the hi-fi system. To achieve this, Ansuz employs its most advanced and truly groundbreaking audio technologies of noise reduction and resonance control. Ansuz audio technologies ensure that virtually no noise is transmitted from the PowerSwitch to the audio components.
Natural-Based Composite Cabinet Material
The cabinet design is an important Ansuz characteristic and is designed to eliminate sonic distortion. The disturbing sonic influence, which emanates from the material the cabinet is made of – mostly aluminium – comes from its mechanical resonance. To eliminate this sonic distortion, the challenge is to minimize the use of aluminium in the cabinet. Ansuz’s sister company Aavik began testing various materials and designed an innovative natural-based composite material, which reduces the mechanical influence, particularly the hysteresis. The sonic result is distinctly audible and reflects a further prominent cornerstone in Ansuz’s quest for the ultimate music experience.
The Tesla Coil Principle
The key operating principle of the Ansuz Tesla coil is to have two coils wound in opposite directions – one coil and one counter coil. In Ansuz words, this is called “A double inverted coil”. The two coils both carry voltage, and when one of the Tesla coils encounters a voltage spike, a counter spike is activated to eliminate the noise. Since noise spikes are pure voltage carrying virtually no charge, the cancelation is quite good, but not perfect. Adding more Tesla coils in parallel, increases the noise cancellation and the perceived blackness in the music increases significantly along with the purity and clarity of the sound. Ansuz uses various types of Tesla coils, as their individual properties ideally complement and reinforce each other.
Ansuz Active Tesla Coil
The Ansuz Tesla coil technology is based on two coils wound in opposite directions; one is a regular spiral and the other is its mirrored counterpart. In Ansuz words, the combination of these parts as explained is called a “double-inverted coil”. Both these Tesla coils are voltage carriers, so when one of them encounters a voltage spike, the other activates a counter-surge to cancel the first peak and in effect suppress the noise. Since these noise spikes are pure voltage without a charge, the cancelation effect is quite strong.
Although the fundamentals of the Ansuz Tesla coil technology are the same for its passive and actively powered variants, the latter’s noise suppression efficiency is much greater. Most importantly, active and passive Tesla coils don’t exclude one another. It is the other way around. These devices mutually support each other to keep on lowering noise floor of a product they’re installed into.
Active Square Tesla Coil
Embedded efficiency.
The active square Tesla coils are embedded in our printed circuit boards – a coil on the top and the counter coil on the back. The principle is exactly the same as the active Tesla coil and thus has a greater ability to eliminate noise than the passive Tesla coils.
Active Cable Tesla Coil
Active anti aerial protection.
The active cable Tesla coil is wound directly on the outer part of the cable and protects the signal from absorbing the airborne RF noise. This noise is absorbed in the Tesla coil. The active version is about three to four times more efficient than the Passive cable Tesla coil.
Analog Dither Technology
Musical information from the depth.
Analog dither technology originated in radar, where it ensured a stronger signal and thus greater range. Ansuz adopted this technology. Their active Tesla coils send pulsating signals at precisely defined frequencies. These signals are sent in anti-phase. This significantly amplifies the musical signal and eliminates the background noise floor.
Anti Aerial Resonance Coil Technology
Prevents airborne noise.
All cables and cable screens are acting like antennas for airborne RF noise which of course is a huge problem. The passive cable Tesla coil is wounded on the external part of the cable and protects the signal from absorbing the airborne RF noise. This noise is absorbed in the Tesla coil.
As there is a voltage running in the conductor itself, and it is wounded in the counter direction – this is used as the counter coil and the RF noise is then eliminated.
Built in Ansuz PowerBox
Ansuz PowerSwitch features the Line/Digital section from the Ansuz Powerbox. This section transfers and adds even more noise cancelled signal from the Ansuz PowerBox to the more advanced series of Ansuz cables.
