System Enhancers
Luminist System Enhancer CD
Purist Audio Design expands our Luminist Revision, and we are pleased to release the Luminist System Enhancer! The Luminist System Enhancer uses additional algorithms designed for the new metallurgies used in our products. We also updated algorithms for the variety of new components used in today’s equipment. All while reducing the break-in time from 24 hours to 5 hours!
The Luminist System Enhancer dramatically improves the sonic qualities of home and professional audio systems by utilizing extended duration CD-R, expanded and intensified algorithms, and a the de-magnetizing section. The improvements for the Luminist System Enhancer work hand-in-hand with the shielding technologies used in our Luminist cables.
The Luminist System Enhancer completely conditions all components (speakers, cables, and electronics) in the sound system by removing molecular stresses and residual magnetism while “opening” the system to perform to its full potential. The tones and signals generated by the Luminist System Enhancer are presented in the optimal frequencies and amplitudes to perform the enhancement process completely in the shortest possible time.
Luminist System Enhancer LP
Purist Audio Design first developed our System Enhancer back in 1993. Since then, the System Enhancer has been a favorite of audiophiles who want to dramatically improve the sonic qualities of both home and professional audio systems. Now, we are bringing the System Enhancer to vinyl.
The Luminist System Enhancer LP features expanded and intensified algorithms, and a de-magnetizing section. The improvements for the Luminist System Enhancer LP work hand-in-hand with the shielding technologies used in our Luminist cables. The System Enhancer will completely condition all components (speakers, cables, and electronics) in the sound system, by removing molecular stresses and residual magnetism while “opening” the system to perform at its full potential. The tones and signals generated by the Luminist System Enhancer LP are presented in the optimal frequencies and amplitudes to perform the enhancement process completely, in the shortest possible time.
Adapters
Equipment Adapters
Purist Audio Design adapters use only the highest-quality metals: copper, silver, gold, even special alloys. They are fabricated in a single rigid construction, maintaining the integrity of the connection and avoiding sound degradation. Purist Audio Design can provide precisely the adapters needed to reveal the full potential of the audiophile’s unique combination of equipment.
Multiple Combinations
- RCA/M to BNC/F
- BNC/M to RCA/F
- RCA to XLR (analog)
- XLR to RCA (analog)
- RCA “Y” (analog)
- XLR “Y” (analog)
- XLR to RCA “Y” (analog)
- RCA to XLR “Y” (analog)
- Speaker Jumper 20cm Banana or Spade 4 Piece
- 15A/M – 20A/F:
(For use on a power cord with a 15A IEC plug and equipment with a 20A inlet.) - 20A/M – 15A/F:
(For use on a power cord with a 20A IEC plug and equipment with a 15A inlet.) - Phono Din Adapter:
(Alows you to use a set of Phono RCA to RCA cables with a Tonearm input)
Digital Isolation Adapter
The adapter is designed to
- Provide galvanic isolation from the transport to the DAC
- Reduce jitter by impedance control
- Reduce EMI/RF noise
Usage
- The adapter can either be plugged into the SPDIF (RCA) output of a CD Transport, or the SPDIF (RCA) Input of a D/A. Connect the SPDIF (RCA) Digital cable into the adapter and equipment.
- Through our testing and usage, we have found the using the adapter on the D/A’s SPDIF (RCA) input yields the most correction.
