Selling my beloved custom Stefan AudioArt Ribbon power strip. The one James sells on his site is a single minimalist strip of 6 plugs with his ribbon power cable attached. That goes for $1000 with the 8ft cord. This is a custom version with THREE power strips linked by Endorphin ribbon and mounted to a 15" x 12" x 4" Deep Rosewood plinth with rounded heavyfeet (spikes are pictured but it comes with round-based) from Mapleshade, with an 8ft cord. Materials alone are $511 for the plinth + $1500 for the extra strips and wiring/cabling. So overall I have $3000 invested in this TOTL power distribution solution. However, as you can see from the pictures, the plinth has taken a bit of a hit behind my rack over the 5 years I have used it, so I am reducing the price to account for that. The few dings in no way affect the sound or function of this unit. Buyer to pay shipping and fees (and this thing is both heavy!). Cheers and thanks for looking. Here is the description from the website:
Description
SAA Performance Power Management
The Endorphin Alchem High-End Ribbon Power Strip incorporates
the purist approach to power distribution. Offering further refinements
to improve the performance of any component fitted with a properly
designed power cable, enabling a much higher level of overall
performance
Pure Power Performance
With the attention to detail you expect from SAA engineering and the
appreciation for the most subtle impediments to pure sound, the “Alchem”
takes power management to new levels. This enables performance
improvements of each component individually culminating in a significant
improvement in overall system performance. You will be amazed when you
experience the reproduction of sound much closer to hearing a live
musical event then you may have thought possible.
The market is flooded with power strips and conditioners which due to
their design being so focused on aesthetic beauty further degrade the
performance of audio/video systems. Many of these power strips and
conditioners are marketed claiming much higher levels of purification
than delivered. Without exception, these units do more harm than good.
Following hours of testing of products generally available, in all
price ranges, we found that in every case the very well constructed,
attractive and most expensive products delivered less than acceptable
results. We incorporated our testing into virtually dozens of different
headphone/audio/video system combinations to replicate the “limitless”
configurations we see from the discerning audiophile we work with. We
have been quite pleased with the results in every scenario when we
replaced them with our Endorphin High-End Ribbon Alchem Power Strip.
Validation
It doesn’t really matter what we think if our customers can’t appreciate the difference.
For validation we conducted customer focus groups with our customers who
were using the higher priced power strips and conditioners. The results
were eye-opening! Replacing these devices with our Endorphin design, in
virtually every case, opened up a whole new level of refinement in the
bass, sound-stage, transparency and accuracy these systems delivered.
Every customer reported a refinement in the overall music/video
presentation specifically noting a blacker background with better bass,
mids and an increase in clarity and transparency.
