SAYA 

A fast, clean mains supply is the fundamental building block of a high quality music reproduction system. To achieve this Saya is built from the mains plug forward using the highest quality components with as few obstacles to the flow of electricity as possible.

Saya uses:

  • A single, 24K gold plated plug to supply the entire system; the gold plating ensures smooth fast conductivity. Continuing that philosophy the fuse is an AMR gold fuse which also gives a rich, mellow tone.
  • All conductors are Neotech UP-OCC, single crystal, stranded copper; the very low resistance and single crystal formation gives a real energy to the sound. The conductors are double insulated in pure silk which has a low dielectric (we also found after extensive listening that silk simply sounds better than articial insulation).
  • The conductors are soldered to the incoming mains conductor using silver/gold solder. Strain relief is via high quality glands.
  • All IECs are Neotech UP-OCC 24K gold plated. These ensure that the transfer of power to the equipment is consistent with Saya's build quality.

The example below is Saya finished in American Black Walnut with 7 output mains leads; 3 leads are permanently "live" to power the customer's streamer, DAC and CD transport even in standby mode; 4 are switched to power the valve amplifier + power supply and the valve phono stage + power supply. 

*Saya can be finished in any wood of your choice which meets our sustainability criteria. *Saya means "Rapid arrow" in Japanese
