$20,000.00"This is the actual Michael Fremer June 2018 Stereophile review unit just returned.
This unit is built to an absolutely cost-no-object standard. It is only sold direct to client to avoid the usual distribution markups. One look at the build, and it is evident this unit is in a class of one. However, it is the total system sonic contribution and star grounding solution it represents which belongs in the best systems.
Even a cursory examination of the Nexus vs interconnects and speaker cables, (many of which cost more for one meter that the Nexus) should elicit a big question. How can the cables justify the price? The obvious answer -- they cannot. Where is the value proposition for the audiophile -- in the Nexus.
To wit:
1. Panzerholtz (Tankwood) rigid, inert, milled chassis
2. Bocchino Mariner 10 IEC connector (the world standard for sonics 10x the cost
conventional audiophile IEC's). 125 amp ready. Absolutely no current limiting. No current
limiting coils and transformers are used. Purely passive filtration via the worlds best
capacitors, Duelund CAST silver.
3. Stillpoints are integrated into the bottom of the chassis and Stillpoint isolators are used to isolate each duplex outlet.
4. Furutech outlets GTX-NCF Rhodium outlets, aluminum mounting plates and carbon
fiber dress plates
5. Enklein pure silver wiring
6. Cardas un-plated copper grounding posts
7. Pure copper buss bar internal construction
