About The IsoTek EVO3 Premier Power Cable (C7)
Get the most out of your amplifier with an IsoTek EVO3 Premier AC power cable! Isotek (an English company) make award-winning power optimisation products for hi-fi and home cinema electronic components. You can increase the performance of your audio and video components with one or more IsoTek EVO3 Premier AC power cables - a highly recommended and easy to install upgrade.
Before we discuss the product details of the IsoTek EVO 3 Premier mains power cable, let's review some of the reasons why people like us and our friends at IsoTek really believe you need to seriously consider upgrading your mains power cables. The standard black mains leads supplied with your audio and AV components is designed to do a basic job at the cheapest price and absolutely no more. It doesn't matter on a kitchen appliance, but they lack the quality of materials and construction needed to protect the integrity of the electricity feeding your system, thereby degrading performance. Outside interference from Radio Frequencies (RFI) and Electro Magnetic Interference (EMI) can't be seen with your eye, but your mains power cable is just like an antenna picking up this unwanted noise. The first rung on the IsoTek ladder is to replace these power cables with products from one of the different ranges based on the value of your system.
A Closer Look
The Premier is the first of the new EVO3 (Evolution Three) power cables from IsoTek. It heralds a significant step up in quality of materials used and represents, we believe, one of the highest quality and specification power cables at its price point. Premier has taken two years of development. Sourcing of specialist high quality materials. The design and development of IsoTek's own bespoke and unique 24ct gold plated copper connectors.
Construction: The conductors are in a parallel construction with slight rotational twist. This established technique remains the first line of defense against RFI and EMI rejection.
Conductors: Silver plated 99.9999% OFC conductors offer an exceptional level of purity with enhanced conductivity. They are less likely to fracture or degrade over time. Silver is an excellent conductor and when combined with a high purity copper provides impressive electrical properties.
Dielectric: A high grade heat-resistant PVC dielectric is used to ensure full compliance with all Australian standards. The dielectric offers stress crack resistance and is a good choice for safety in both temperature as well as electrical insulation.
Filler: Cotton filler has been used to give the cable internal strength and reduce microphony. Cotton also possesses excellent dielectric properties, the best of a solid material.
Wrap: A paper wrap is used to secure the construction prior to the application of a flexible PVC jacket. The addition of the paper and cotton form a buffer with the PVC so as to maintain exceptional dielectric properties.
Jacket: PVC is used as an outer jacket to give a high degree of flexibility and mechanical strength.
Terminations: Premier cable is terminated using IsoTek's bespoke Audiophile grade moulded connectors of solid OFC with 24ct gold plated conductors. These offer the highest quality performance and will not tarnish.
IsoTek EVO3 Premier Reviews
"A distinct cleaning up of the sound... A marked benefit for dynamic range, a consequence of lowering the noise floor, as well as a refinement and a general opening up of the soundstage" IsoTek EVO3 Premier - Hi-Fi Choice
"There is a cumulative effect in using both together that makes a striking difference to the overall performance of the system. They really open up the soundstage and let you hear more of the music because noise is reduced... Highly recommended and particularly good value for money" IsoTek EVO3 Premier used with EVO3 Polaris - Hi-Fi Choice
"This lead seems to offer a level of performance that can compete effectively with considerably more expensive cables. It works very well with low current equipment, and with low powered budget amplifiers. I think it is so effective and such good value for money that I now have three." IsoTek EVO3 Premier - Hi-Fi World
