Cryoclear Reviews

May 2006

The Inner Ear magazine reviews the Silver-2 power cable and awards it a top rating of notes.

August 2005David Kan from Audiotechnique (Hong Kong) has reviewed the Silver-2 audio power cable. The original Chinese version of the review can be found here.
December 2004AudioZone, Omega, CryoClear audio system review.
November 2004Paul Candy of the 6moons audiophile website reviews the Silver-1 and Silver-2 power cables.

 

 

The CryoClear Silver Power Cable product line is the culmination of extensive research into power cable design.

 

The Silver power cables exhibit few of the sonic deficiencies that plague the common designs used in low and mid-priced name brand power cables as well as DIY power cables. In addition, the Silver power cables exhibit a high degree of compatibility with the components typically found in most audio/video systems.

 

The Silver power cables use a sophisticated multi-layer construction, which cannot be reproduced by machine. Each Silver power cable is painstakingly assembled by hand and takes several hours to construct.

 

We are confident that you will be happy with our power cables, and provide a 30 day money-back guarantee1. Our power cables go through an extensive burn-in process, so should sound great after only a 24 hour system acclimatization period in your system. Most power cables that you purchase from other companies require an initial burn-in period (sometimes 200 hours or more), which is best done on a high current drawing appliance rather than your intended component.

 

1The guarantee applies to power cables returned in original condition and does not include shippinand handling charges.

Silver-2

The Silver-2 power cable is designed for use with extremely high resolution systems where only the best will do.  It provides superior performance compared to the high-end audiophile power cable models of other companies (above $600.00 price).  It is suitable for use with all source and power components, regardless of their current requirements. Source components (CD players, DACs) and preamplifiers/preprocessors in particular benefit from the Silver-2.

Power Cable Construction Details

  • Military grade 12AWG silver plated copper conductors with PTFE Teflon insulation. 4 conductors in a star quad configuration, effective 9.5AWG rating.
  • 1 12 AWG silver plated copper conductor for grounding.

  • Cast aluminum outlet box.
  • Stainless steel cover plate.

The power outlet box is available with a 5ft Silver-1 power cable. It is available as a special order option for the 5ft Basic Silver, 6ft Silver-1, and 5/6ft Silver-2 power cables.

Note: The power outlet box does not provide power surge protection.

 

 

 

 Stillpoints ERS Paper

 

Stillpoints ERS redirects, absorbs, and diffuses EMI/RFI (Electro-magetic Interference/Radio Frequency Interference). The benefits of ERS for audio/video are best heard with digital circuits due to the RFI creating aspect of the circuitry itself. Benefits of ERS can also be heard in treating EMI originating from AC power supplies and transformers. Note: ERS Paper are conductive.
