Description

Michael Børresen and the Ansuz development team have continued to identify and eliminate the negative impact that cables impart on the signal. The first priority was to focus on inductance and capacitance within the cables and these were reduced to unprecedented low levels with DIHC (Double Inverted Helix Coil Technology). With the Signalz C2, Ansuz have introduced AARC (Anti Arial Resonance Coil Technology), which removes the cable’s tendencies to resonate and receive signals/noise from the surroundings.

The reason that all the Ansuz cables sound so uniform is that from the entry-level X2 right through to the top of the range D-TC Supreme, all of the cables have the same basic conductors – a shielded twisted 1mm² solid core copper, silver plated conductor in a double teflon isolation system. They also all share the same plugs and housings. As you move up the range, more technologies are added which give higher performance capabilities. This unique way of building cable systems means that the entry-level X2 shares the same fundamentals as the flagship D-TC Supreme. Knowing that all the cables have the same proven architecture is very comforting to the user.

The C2 performs at a rarified level. Jet black background, silence between the notes, all of the music expressed with the energy, intention and sensation of the live performance. Feel the magic!

Reviews

The Ansuz Signalz C2 secured my full attention right from the start by deep and firm lows, abundance of energy and first rate resolution. The sound was also exceptionally dynamic and clear. Next months of listening only confirmed the initial observations and added many more. Still, after the time I spent with the C2, its top feature is its penetrating and tight bass that no competitor provides, plus amazing macro-dynamics. Contrasts in low level music going to fortes are explosive, movie soundtracks are monumental, and swings from 0 to 85dB on jazz numbers are instant. However, the time when I got completely hooked with the Ansuz C2 came during listening to Rabaud’s Dances of Marouf (Reference Recordings, RR-71 SACD). The SACD version outperforms as easily the CD as the C2 outperformed any other cable I’d had so far. Here’s the quote, word by word, from my listening notes:
“These evocative oriental textures become so sensual, it’s a kind of weaving the sound. It’s so mesmerizing. I can hear every single note and tonal shift clearly, so effortlessly. And now, the power of the music is incredible, the music is burning from the speakers!”
It was not before the Ansuz Signalz C2 entered my system that I realized how transparent this music could be. Though the imaging had all the aforementioned qualities, it was the C2’s temporal resolution that made the sound acquire a completely new heights of transparency. Timing and rhythm was just extraordinary. It is during such a performance when usual descriptors like ´detail´ or ´air´ cease to exist and the listener can freely walk into the soundstage and spend his or her time with the musicians rather than with the recording.
