I 25th Anniversary

The 25th Anniversary line of cables represents everything we have learned from over 25 years of hand crafting the best cables possible! Everything from the single crystal silver conductors to the advanced Ferox© dampening let these cables vanish in your system and deliver the music! The 25th Anniversary AC Power Cable uses power conditioning circuit technology that provides EMI/RFI noise control, filtering, and reduction. It integrates the use of a multistage power conditioning circuitry that passively controls, filters and reduces the effects of EMI/RFI from coupling via direct conduction, induction and capacitive to a

level that allows the dynamics of music breathe and prevail.

I 25th Anniversary

3.5 mm to RCA

Introducing our new 25th Anniversary 3.5mm to RCA cable, for Audiophiles needing and ultra high quality cable for office or home systems. For example, this cable can be used with an Astell & Kern player to a high quality amplifier that is connected to headphones or speakers in a home or office. After spending over a year and half, I finally designed a cable that meets my goals of a truly top of the line 3.5mm to RCA cable. The cable uses 25th Anniversary technology with Ferox 13 and the highest quality connectors. In direct comparison to cables of this design, it has no equal and will bring smiles to the faces of the listeners.

VII Aquila

The Aquila Digital AC is a product of our over 25 years’ experience and our ground-upwards approach. It is made for the digital format with precise attention to shielding and careful use of ferrite materials. The Aquila Digital AC’s construction prevents the transmission of Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) signals from other digital devices to the power supply. EMI is an undesirable

side effect which can seep into an analog front end from the AC line.

VIII Poseidon

VIII Poseidon

For the Poseidon cable line, we carefully chose the core conductors for this line after countless hours of listening to determine what would work best with the fluid to deliver the sound audiophiles are looking for. The Poseidon gives a very warm sound with a sweet top end, a detailed mid-range, and a rounded controlled bottom end. It brings the music more forward. Sit back close your

eyes and let the music sweep you away!

USB-LR

Purist Audio Design introduces the All New Ultra-high Performance USB Audio Cable. The USB cable is specifically designed for computer audio applications. The design uses large gauge conductors allow for accurate signal transfer up to 5 meters compared with other computer USB cables, which are limited to a few meters. This allows computers can be located away from audio components without compromising performance.

Ultimate USB-LR

Purist Audio Design is pleased to introduce the All New Ultimate USB Audio Cable. The USB cable is specifically designed for computer audio applications. The design improves upon our previous cable by including passive filtering and a totally new cable design. The Ultimate uses the largest gauge conductors allowed by USB standards to allow for accurate signal transfer up to 5 meters compared with other computer USB cables, which are limited to a few meters. This allows computers can be located away from audio components without compromising performance.

The Purist Audio Design Ultimate USB Cable utilizes precision construction techniques and superior noise rejection result in a richer, more natural sound compared with computer USB cables. The cable also incorporates low noise dielectrics and double shielding providing superior noise performance for better resolution of musical details and a wider dynamic range.
