At US$3,699, this Ansuz Acoustics Digitalz D2 listing is ambitiously priced, sitting well above the typical used market where the model trades around US$900 to US$1,250. Audiogon’s Bluebook records a recent used sale at US$900, while other D2 variants like the USB and Ethernet D2 hover near US$1,250 in active listings, making this asking price roughly triple the median. Unless this is a pristine, original-owner unit with rare accessories or a newer revision, the price is steep for a D2 cable.
Still, the Digitalz D2 is a respected digital cable in the Ansuz line, known for tightening timing and reducing noise in digital paths, especially when paired with Ansuz’s own digital components. If the condition is truly excellent and the cable is the full-length, high-end version (not a shortened or entry variant), it could offer meaningful sonic upside for a system already invested in Danish digital gear. But at this price, buyers should expect near-new condition and full documentation—or negotiate hard toward the US$1,200–US$1,400 range.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Ansuz Acoustics emerged from Denmark's storied audio heritage in 2012, founded by industry veterans Lars Kristensen and Michael Børresen. Drawing inspiration from the Nordic rune Ansuz—symbolizing wisdom—the duo launched the brand after Kristensen, weary from two decades in cables, was captivated by Børresen's revolutionary concepts for reducing signal distortion. Their shared vision addressed conventional cables' shortcomings, like inductance, mechanical instability, and noise, which they believed compressed musical authenticity. Rooted in Denmark's century-long dominance in hi-fi, from Peter L. Jensen's pioneering loudspeaker to modern innovations, Ansuz embodies a relentless pursuit of sonic purity.
The brand specializes in premium cables and noise-control solutions, including signal, power, and speaker cables, alongside power distributors, grounding devices, streaming accessories, and resonance control products like DARKz footers and SPARKz. These components target unwanted vibrations, electromagnetic interference, and signal degradation, employing advanced Tesla coil technologies to enhance clarity, dynamics, and flow. Ansuz forms the foundational layer for high-end systems, complementing sister brands Aavik and Børresen in Audio Group Denmark's ecosystem.
Positioned firmly in the ultra-high-end market, Ansuz commands respect among discerning audiophiles for its boutique engineering and transformative impact. Owners praise generational upgrades, like the 2-series cables, for elevating already elite performance. This niche leader prioritizes emotional, uncolored reproduction, making it indispensable for buyers seeking the pinnacle of hi-fi realism.
