Anima CS/ Including Proprietary Stands



The Anima CS takes the Anima two-way monitor's
superlative performance up another level. The improvements? An overall
reduction in the noise level of the speaker, higher resolution, and
improved dynamics. And what did we do to get these improvements? First
of all, the two loudspeakers incorporate the same drivers, bamboo
cabinet, crossover topology, premium internal wiring and Eichmann
connectors. These highly refined components are the basis for the
already excellent performing standard version.

But, the CS version incorporates a number of special noise-reduction
treatments (i.e.: Balanced Force Design) and custom parts. The first is a
¾ inch stainless steel base. The significant mass of the stainless
steel base, added to the rigid bamboo cabinet, provides a nearly
immovable baffle for the speaker drivers. It is also a low vibration
platform where the Anima CS crossover is mounted using a floating and
decoupled suspension system.

The CS crossover contains only the finest capacitors and hand built
low-frequency inductors designed by audio engineer Brian Daley. These
are the details that create the low distortion, three-dimensional, high
dynamic presentation of the Anima CS. The improved bass extension,
clarity and transient response this maximized crossover yields led Allen
Perkins to comment that these loudspeakers are not delicate-sounding,
but rather deeply nuanced.

It is the Anima CS’ bass extension, however, that surprises
first-time listeners. One aspect of CS that this unexpected bass
psychoacoustics play a role. Science has shown us that when we hear
harmonics associated with a fundamental frequency, our brain will
re-create the fundamental frequency as a part of our hearing experience –
even though the fundamental frequency is not actually present. Another
way to look at this is to consider that a fundamental frequency, like
A440, is the same, for example, from a flute or a violin. The reason we
can tell its being played by a flute and not a violin is the harmonics
above the fundamental.

To achieve these qualities, designer Joachim Gerhard uses
psychoacoustics to encourage your brain to provide what physics
restricts. With a keen understanding of how we process sound, Joachim
uses our brain’s perception mechanism to our advantage. For this effect
to be convincing the reproduced harmonic structure must be very
accurate. The Anima CS’ harmonic accuracy is such that your brain is
able to take the sonic information provided by the loudspeaker and fill
in the fundamental where the speaker cannot. This is no more obvious
than in the bass region, but it also is true throughout the entire
frequency spectrum, and contributes to the “solid” authoritative sound
from the Anima CS.


Questions for the seller
hi, I'm a mastering engineer and friend of Allen P. I have Allegras x 3 and a SG2 table. Is this a new pair of Anima CS? thanks, Brian [email protected]
No. They are demos. But they are in perfect shape
