The RA Ultimate AC Power Conditioner is our refined and improved second generation revision. We redesigned the ground filter for an even clearer, more silent background. We kept a passive technology approach to avoid reducing the available current. Most power conditioners are active, and have to store the power they supply, acting in essence like a power amplifier. In the active design the available current is limited to what the power conditioner can supply, as opposed the full amperage supplied from an outlet. Just as power amplifiers clip, increase distortion, and otherwise fail under loads beyond their capacity, active power conditioners do, too. Increasing size, capacity, and cost can solve this problem for a given load, but the better solution is found in the non-limiting passive design of the RA Ultimate.
To ensure optimal results, we carefully select Mundroft Supreme SilverGold capacitors for the filter stage and add a custom made 20 amp power plug with solid copper connectors plated with rhodium for ideal conductivity and durability. The enclosure features a faceplate of inch thick proprietary alloy—the same one we use in our renowned turntables. We machine the other sides from 3/8ths inch alloy stock.
On installing the RA Ultimate, you will notice immediately how the improved grounding renders the noise floor virtually non-existent to provide a totally black background so still and quiet that new details and micro dynamics will emerge along with rejuvenated macro dynamics. The RA Ultimate unleashes the soundstage, making it feel wider, deeper, and more transparent, and bestowing more weight and explosiveness on each note.

Now that I have the Anubis turntable with two Osiris arms, and the P-200, and the L-200, all spectacular in their own right, Tom Vu asked me to try the RA power conditioner and the RHEA power cable. I said, “why not”, as I was thinking that I have a very robust AC management setup and this would be a me too product. I had 2 different power conditioners that were extremely good. I didn’t think that the RA and RHEA would make a difference, but as anything else Tom makes, I was blown away. I was so used to unknown noise in my system, that when I plugged in the RA/RHEA combination, my noise floor dropped significantly and my music was significantly more transparent and each of my amps and preamps presented much more of their personalities. It was like someone removed a filter that the music was going through. Unbelievable. I called Tom and told him I’m not sending the RA and RHEA back to him and I have to keep both of them. These were going to be for his travels to his trade shows. He literally had to make a new RA/RHEA setup for himself. I listed my two power conditioners and sold them. Triangle Art’s RA and RHEA are a legitimate massive upgrade. If you try these in your system, I’m confident that you will have the same experience. If you really want to upgrade your system, please try the Triangle Art’s power management system and your ears will be kissed by the angels.

I could use all sorts of high-end audio terms to describe what I am hearing but when it comes down to it, it’s a jaw-dropping experience, it’s the cherry on top. Tom has really hit a home-run with his new noise-canceling AC filter products. If you’re looking for a solid base to build a new high-end audio system or just looking for a substantial upgrade, give Tom a call.

Hello everyone,
Just wanted to write this review because it’s well deserved.
Just purchased the RA Ultimate conditioner and Rhea cables for my entire stereo.
Ladies and gents. Step right up and buy.
Yes I was well should I or shouldn’t i.
So I did and all I have to say is WOW.
Now I have well known manufacturers for my power conditioning and cables and there not the introduction cables either.
Can these new components make that much difference. Let’s find out.
The process.
Installed the conditioner and played the stereo. Everything opened up and made my room bigger. Way cleaner. The noise floor has dropped so much that I didn’t know my stereo anymore. Now remember I just got this and it’s not broken in. What’s gonna happen when it breaks in. It’s gonna be so awesome.
Now installed the cables
the vocals are cleaner than I could ever imagine. The. Bass is tighter and so clean.
My speakers are decent. My stereo is a thousand times better and made my speakers sing my stereo consist of
Triangle Art
L200 pre amp
M100 mono blocks
Reference phono stage (needs to be upgraded) Triangle Art turntable ( Hathor with Zeus cartridge) RA ultimate conditioner Rhea cables
Ps audio
Dac
SACD player
Kef speakers
R700. (Need to be upgraded )
Thanks Tom for all the help u have taught me so much and I keep learning all the time.
