Aesthetix Benz MC Demagentizer ABCD-1 MC Demagnetizer. This has been tested and is in working condition. This unit is is for use ONLY on Moving Coil Cartridges. I do not know what version this is. Will require 2 9V batteries installed. No instruction manual. From Aesthetix: The first American designed and manufactured cartridge demagnetizer, the Aestehtix ABCD-1 MC Cartridge Demagnetizer, keeps your analog front-end sounding its best. Once a week, simply plug in your turntable leads to the ABCD-1, then activate the gently ramped, up-and-down cycle of the ultra-pure demagnetizing signal. The Aesthetix ABCD-1 MC Cartridge Demagnetizer was designed to meet a specific need in todays marketplace: an affordable MC cartridge demagnetizer which restores your cartridges potential without residual sonic signature. Periodically demagnetizing a moving coil cartridge removes the veils which creep up as you enjoy your record collection. Simply put, these veils are the result of compromised electromagnetic performance of your phono cartridge. The Aesthetix ABCD-1 MC Cartridge Demagnetizer eliminates these veils, recovering the dynamics, nuance and emotion of your favorite LPs. The ABCD-1 is battery powered for ease of use and worldwide operation. To better understand how the ABCD-1 works, remember that a moving coil phono cartridge is basically a coil of wire wound around a piece of iron (or ferrous material) suspended within a magnetic field. This electrical generator is activated by the phono stylus in the record groove, moving the wire coil and thus generating a signal to be amplified and reproduced by your loudspeakers. Think back to a simple science experiment placing a pin against a strong magnet for a few minutes. Afterwards, the pin, which is made of ferrous material, becomes magnetized enough to attract another pin. Todays best moving coil phono cartridges use very strong magnets such as neodymium and samarium cobalt. When the moving coil absorbs some of the magnets charge, the sound becomes murky and less defined. This is because the magnetized coil does not generate as great a variation as it moves within the magnetic field of the phono cartridge. The Aesthetix ABCD-1 MC Cartridge Demagnetizer neutralizes the unwanted magnetic charge of the moving coil, restoring full performance in a matter of minutes. Demagnetizing your moving coil cartridge with the Aesthetix ABCD-1 every 1 to 2 weeks will prolong the life of your phono cartridge, increasing your enjoyment and appreciation of the music. The ABCD-1 works on the principle of demagnetization similar to a tape head degausser. A fixed high-frequency signal is gradually increased from zero amplitude up to a maximum level where it is maintained for a fixed length of time. The signal is then gradually reduced in amplitude to zero again. Differing from other cartridge demagnetizers, the ABCD-1 signal is a very pure sine wave with ultra low distortion. To use the ABCD-1, plug your phono leads into the unit and disconnect both the left and right from your preamp. Turn the Demagnetizers power on and depress the activate button. An LED will illuminate for the duration of the demagnetization process. When the light turns off, the process is complete. Reconnect your inputs and outputs and turn off the unit. Its that quick and easy!

Aesthetix Romulus valve cd player / dac with remote The Romulus is a fine performer that draws in the listener Pros +Refined yet still entertaining sound +Full-bodied presentation +Terrific as a DAC Aesthetix is one of the brightest stars of high-end amplification. We’ve loved every single piece of kit we’ve heard from this American brand, but still approached its first foray into the digital domain with a sense of trepidation. We needn’t have worried. While not flawless, the Romulus CD player is a great piece of kit. It’s apparent from the first few seconds of listening. Performance Aesthetix Romulus Aesthetix Romulus Our usual practice is to let test equipment warm up overnight before starting serious listening. Our review sample wasn’t new, so running-in wasn’t an issue. Sponsored Links Slots offer for new customers Virgin Games. 18+ We normally don’t take much notice of the sound at this point, apart from making sure everything is working properly. The Aesthetix had other ideas. RECOMMENDED VIDEOS FOR YOU... CLOSE The first few bars of Eminem’s Bad Guy are enough to get us hooked. This recording can easily sound hard and thin, but that isn’t the case here. The Romulus delivers sound with a wonderful sense of space and ease. And detail? There’s loads, as the player uncovers subtleties with considerable skill. At this point we’re impressed, but we leave the player on repeat and come back to listen the following day. We wonder how the sound will change once the circuitry settles at operating temperature. The answer? A fair bit, all of it good. Aesthetix Romulus Aesthetix Romulus Listening to the Eminem track again, the presentation proves even clearer and more fluid. There are gains in transparency and top-end sweetness. Scale improves too. The Romulus does a pretty good job at tracking rhythms and communicating the aggression in the recording. There’s an element of rounding off the edges, though, which makes recordings seem a little easier on the ear than they should be. If you’re a rock or hip-hop fan, that may be an issue, but for the most part this Aesthetix delivers enough bite. Switch to Van Morrison’s Moondance and the Romulus sounds right at home. It captures the jaunty feel of the song brilliantly, rendering that lovely bassline with real dexterity. Tonally, things edge towards richness, but not enough to jar. Instead, the presentation is smooth yet still entertaining. It’s a balance that has become something of a trademark for the company’s products. Design Aesthetix Romulus Aesthetix Romulus The Romulus isn’t just a CD player, either. It’s equipped with digital inputs too, as is becoming common. There’s the usual option of USB, optical and coax, and the less-common AES/EBU connection too. The USB can be switched between Class 1.0 and 2.0 modes at the press of a little button on the rear panel. Using Class 2.0 – as we did for most of our test – extends the input capability to 24bit/192kHz high-res music files. Macs with OS X version 10.6.4 or higher will work right away, but if you have a PC you’ll need dedicated software drivers. USB Class 1.0 should work with most computers as standard but limits the input data streams to a 96kHz sampling rate. Regardless of mode, the USB input works asynchronously – so the DAC, rather than the computer connected to it, has control of information flow – which usually bodes well for sound quality. We play a range of music from our MacBook (which runs the Pure Music media-playing software) with really good results. There’s the same large-scale, spacious presentation that we hear when playing CDs, and similar levels of resolution. Aesthetix Romulus Aesthetix Romulus We’re impressed by the Romulus’s refinement and its ability to make low bitrate files listenable – there’s much to be said for such a forgiving attitude towards recordings. But, give it something really well-recorded like a CD rip of Nick Cave’s Push the Sky Away or a 24-bit/192kHz rendition of Mahler’s Symphony No.4 and it shines. Comparing the Aesthetix to a top-class, stand-alone high-end DAC such as Chord’s QBD 76 is interesting. The Chord certainly shows that more timing precision is available and delivers dynamic contrasts in a more forceful manner. It even digs up a touch more detail, but the Aesthetix counters with its more spacious presentation, a nicely layered sound stage and a much more forgiving attitude. Moving away from sound, there’s much to be impressed with here. Build quality is terrific; as it has been with all Aesthetix products we’ve seen. Aesthetix Romulus Aesthetix Romulus The unit’s aluminium casework feels solid and it’s all finished to a high standard. If we’re being picky, those distinctive triangular buttons on the front panel feel imprecise to use. We’d like a slicker drawer operation too: it feels no classier than many a budget player. The same thing can be said about the remote handset. Take a look inside and you will be greeted by neatly laid-out circuit boards. It’s no surprise to see valves used in the analogue stages (after all that is what the brand is known for) and we’re impressed by the high-quality internal components. As is usual for a product at this level, attention is given to preventing damaging interactions between the digital and analogue sections. This extends to the TEAC-sourced transport, which is enclosed in a Faraday cage to isolate it electrically from other parts of the player. The power supply is suitably elaborate and makes use of three transformers: one for analogue, the second for digital and the third for the control circuitry. Verdict The Romulus is a talented machine. It’s a very fine CD player and a talented unit if used as a DAC. If its refined, yet still entertaining, approach to playing music appeals, dive right in – and enjoy a smooth and elegant sound.

It even digs up a touch more detail, but the Aesthetix counters with its more spacious presentation, a nicely layered sound stage and a much more forgiving attitude. Moving away from sound, there’s much to be impressed with here. Build quality is terrific; as it has been with all Aesthetix products we’ve seen. Aesthetix Romulus Aesthetix Romulus The unit’s aluminium casework feels solid and it’s all finished to a high standard. If we’re being picky, those distinctive triangular buttons on the front panel feel imprecise to use. We’d like a slicker drawer operation too: it feels no classier than many a budget player. The same thing can be said about the remote handset. Take a look inside and you will be greeted by neatly laid-out circuit boards. It’s no surprise to see valves used in the analogue stages (after all that is what the brand is known for) and we’re impressed by the high-quality internal components. As is usual for a product at this level, attention is given to preventing damaging interactions between the digital and analogue sections. This extends to the TEAC-sourced transport, which is enclosed in a Faraday cage to isolate it electrically from other parts of the player. The power supply is suitably elaborate and makes use of three transformers: one for analogue, the second for digital and the third for the control circuitry. Verdict The Romulus is a talented machine. It’s a very fine CD player and a talented unit if used as a DAC. If its refined, yet still entertaining, approach to playing music appeals, dive right in – and enjoy a smooth and elegant sound.   Images sell!

Aesthetix Benz MC Demagentizer ABCD-1 MC Demagnetizer. This has been tested and is in working condition. This unit is is for use ONLY on Moving Coil Cartridges. I do not know what version this is. Two new 9V batteries have been installed. No instruction manual. Audible Elegance is your Audio, Video, and Home Theater Dealer in Cincinnati Ohio, Northern Kentucky and Eastern Indiana featuring many fine products in a home-like and friendly atmosphere. From Aesthetix: The first American designed and manufactured cartridge demagnetizer, the Aestehtix ABCD-1 MC Cartridge Demagnetizer, keeps your analog front-end sounding its best. Once a week, simply plug in your turntable leads to the ABCD-1, then activate the gently ramped, up-and-down cycle of the ultra-pure demagnetizing signal. The Aesthetix ABCD-1 MC Cartridge Demagnetizer was designed to meet a specific need in todays marketplace: an affordable MC cartridge demagnetizer which restores your cartridges potential without residual sonic signature. Periodically demagnetizing a moving coil cartridge removes the veils which creep up as you enjoy your record collection. Simply put, these veils are the result of compromised electromagnetic performance of your phono cartridge. The Aesthetix ABCD-1 MC Cartridge Demagnetizer eliminates these veils, recovering the dynamics, nuance and emotion of your favorite LPs. The ABCD-1 is battery powered for ease of use and worldwide operation. To better understand how the ABCD-1 works, remember that a moving coil phono cartridge is basically a coil of wire wound around a piece of iron (or ferrous material) suspended within a magnetic field. This electrical generator is activated by the phono stylus in the record groove, moving the wire coil and thus generating a signal to be amplified and reproduced by your loudspeakers. Think back to a simple science experiment placing a pin against a strong magnet for a few minutes. Afterwards, the pin, which is made of ferrous material, becomes magnetized enough to attract another pin. Todays best moving coil phono cartridges use very strong magnets such as neodymium and samarium cobalt. When the moving coil absorbs some of the magnets charge, the sound becomes murky and less defined. This is because the magnetized coil does not generate as great a variation as it moves within the magnetic field of the phono cartridge. The Aesthetix ABCD-1 MC Cartridge Demagnetizer neutralizes the unwanted magnetic charge of the moving coil, restoring full performance in a matter of minutes. Demagnetizing your moving coil cartridge with the Aesthetix ABCD-1 every 1 to 2 weeks will prolong the life of your phono cartridge, increasing your enjoyment and appreciation of the music. The ABCD-1 works on the principle of demagnetization similar to a tape head degausser. A fixed high-frequency signal is gradually increased from zero amplitude up to a maximum level where it is maintained for a fixed length of time. The signal is then gradually reduced in amplitude to zero again. Differing from other cartridge demagnetizers, the ABCD-1 signal is a very pure sine wave with ultra low distortion. To use the ABCD-1, plug your phono leads into the unit and disconnect both the left and right from your preamp. Turn the Demagnetizers power on and depress the activate button. An LED will illuminate for the duration of the demagnetization process. When the light turns off, the process is complete. Reconnect your inputs and outputs and turn off the unit. Its that quick and easy!

Aesthetix Romulus valve cd player / dac with remote The Romulus is a fine performer that draws in the listener Pros +Refined yet still entertaining sound +Full-bodied presentation +Terrific as a DAC Aesthetix is one of the brightest stars of high-end amplification. We’ve loved every single piece of kit we’ve heard from this American brand, but still approached its first foray into the digital domain with a sense of trepidation. We needn’t have worried. While not flawless, the Romulus CD player is a great piece of kit. It’s apparent from the first few seconds of listening. Performance Aesthetix Romulus Aesthetix Romulus Our usual practice is to let test equipment warm up overnight before starting serious listening. Our review sample wasn’t new, so running-in wasn’t an issue. Sponsored Links Slots offer for new customers Virgin Games. 18+ We normally don’t take much notice of the sound at this point, apart from making sure everything is working properly. The Aesthetix had other ideas. RECOMMENDED VIDEOS FOR YOU... CLOSE The first few bars of Eminem’s Bad Guy are enough to get us hooked. This recording can easily sound hard and thin, but that isn’t the case here. The Romulus delivers sound with a wonderful sense of space and ease. And detail? There’s loads, as the player uncovers subtleties with considerable skill. At this point we’re impressed, but we leave the player on repeat and come back to listen the following day. We wonder how the sound will change once the circuitry settles at operating temperature. The answer? A fair bit, all of it good. Aesthetix Romulus Aesthetix Romulus Listening to the Eminem track again, the presentation proves even clearer and more fluid. There are gains in transparency and top-end sweetness. Scale improves too. The Romulus does a pretty good job at tracking rhythms and communicating the aggression in the recording. There’s an element of rounding off the edges, though, which makes recordings seem a little easier on the ear than they should be. If you’re a rock or hip-hop fan, that may be an issue, but for the most part this Aesthetix delivers enough bite. Switch to Van Morrison’s Moondance and the Romulus sounds right at home. It captures the jaunty feel of the song brilliantly, rendering that lovely bassline with real dexterity. Tonally, things edge towards richness, but not enough to jar. Instead, the presentation is smooth yet still entertaining. It’s a balance that has become something of a trademark for the company’s products. Design Aesthetix Romulus Aesthetix Romulus The Romulus isn’t just a CD player, either. It’s equipped with digital inputs too, as is becoming common. There’s the usual option of USB, optical and coax, and the less-common AES/EBU connection too. The USB can be switched between Class 1.0 and 2.0 modes at the press of a little button on the rear panel. Using Class 2.0 – as we did for most of our test – extends the input capability to 24bit/192kHz high-res music files. Macs with OS X version 10.6.4 or higher will work right away, but if you have a PC you’ll need dedicated software drivers. USB Class 1.0 should work with most computers as standard but limits the input data streams to a 96kHz sampling rate. Regardless of mode, the USB input works asynchronously – so the DAC, rather than the computer connected to it, has control of information flow – which usually bodes well for sound quality. We play a range of music from our MacBook (which runs the Pure Music media-playing software) with really good results. There’s the same large-scale, spacious presentation that we hear when playing CDs, and similar levels of resolution. Aesthetix Romulus Aesthetix Romulus We’re impressed by the Romulus’s refinement and its ability to make low bitrate files listenable – there’s much to be said for such a forgiving attitude towards recordings. But, give it something really well-recorded like a CD rip of Nick Cave’s Push the Sky Away or a 24-bit/192kHz rendition of Mahler’s Symphony No.4 and it shines. Comparing the Aesthetix to a top-class, stand-alone high-end DAC such as Chord’s QBD 76 is interesting.

It even digs up a touch more detail, but the Aesthetix counters with its more spacious presentation, a nicely layered sound stage and a much more forgiving attitude.
