The Elite BAC MK II is the new generation Balanced Power Conditioner from PLiXiR. Based on the award winning Elite BAC, which has been in continual production since 2016, the Elite BAC MK II improves upon the original on all performance aspects. Users of the original Elite BAC will appreciate the even lower natural noise floor, the improved dynamics and PRaT, the unveiling of even more nuances and aural details, the increased body to the sound that the Elite BAC MK II provides, all without sacrificing the neutral and natural tone which PLiXiR is known for.
The Elite BAC MK II features our newly designed Fully Symmetrical Balanced Transformers, made to our spec by Noratel with their proprietary XQ core. Together with improved case works, customed Bfly “Pure” footers, PLiXiR designed OFC internal hookup wires and improved construction technique, the Elite BAC MK II is set to raise the bar for Balanced Power Conditioning for audio application for years to come.
PLiXiR Fully Symmetrical Balanced Transformer design. Made with Noratel XQ Core.
Our new transformer design improves upon the standard with even more tightly matched transformer windings amongst other improvements. This increases noise cancellation for even lower noise floor and purer tone. Improved dynamic and PRaT when every part is synchronized.
Customed made by Noratel to our spec with their proprietary XQ (Extra Quiet) magnetic core material, this core has the lowest hum and vibration from all we have tried and provides maximum insulation against DC component in the AC mains.
It also comes with a NEW integrated external magnetic shield to reduce flux leakage and improve damping for the transformer for a cleaner sound.
Cryo USA Duplex Receptacle (PLUS-D)
From our design and manufacturing of PLiXiR balanced AC power conditioners, we are always looking for better components to improve. Aspects of the sound which we value the most is neutral tone and true transparency. This allows equipment plugged into PLiXiR BAC to perform to their true potential.
The made in Japan PLiXiR PLUS-D Hospital grade USA Duplex receptacle is one such component. With copper alloy conductors for the Live / Neutral connections, a vibration damping thermoplastic body, a thick metal plate for reinforcement and other design elements, in its native form we find that it is what we are looking for fundamentally.
We then apply certain modifications to the outlet that improves the structural integrity and grounding further. The final unit then goes thru a deep cryogenic process to relax the stress accumulated. The resulting PLUS-D is the best USA Receptacle that we have tried, in terms of absolute neutral tone, true transparency and most importantly, delivers music naturally.
