Siltech Cables Triple Crown Power Cable

The essence of power cables
Power cables have an unexpectedly big audible effect that degrade the reproduction of music. Magnetic leakages cause distortion in particular frequency ranges; these are picked up by all connected electronics and other (interconnect) cables nearby and as such induce small distorted currents which are unrelated to the music but do affect it.
Furthermore, those distorted currents cause saturation in many power cords resulting into audible distortion at these peak currents.

During development of the Triple Crown power cables, very advanced Multiphysics software (COMSOLtm) and measuring equipment by FW Bell (3D Gauss) and Audio Precision (THD) helped to achieve our goal; extremely high levels of power integrity, leading to an astonishing subjective performance. The elimination of harshness, complete lack of induced distortion and subsequent bass stability create a new ultra-realistic feel to the music.

Universal power
Digital amplifiers or amplifiers with switch mode power supplies have very different effects than electronics with analog power supplies. The Siltech Triple Crown power cable is balanced for both switching (digital) and non-switching (analog) loads which means that over a very large operating area magnetic interference with other nearby cables or electronics is minimized over an extreme wide frequency and current range. To make a universal flawless power cable, the EMC suppression and stability under load has to be suitable for every purpose, low or very high power, digital and analog.
They believe they have achieved that goal.

Siltech has always advocated the benefits of silver and silver-gold over any other metallurgic technology for a good reason. Due to their composition, materials like copper are not stable over time and therefore a poor long-term investment for the audiophile. Now Siltech has found a new technology for producing extremely pure mono crystal copper to be used in non-degrading copper cables. After intensively testing the ageing effect, Siltech felt confident to put this revolutionary technology into production, leading to the Explorer Series™. A high-tech jacket comprising a dual layer of Kapton film and Teflon insulation protects the 6N mono crystal copper against magnetic fields, radio frequencies and mechanical influences.

The interconnect cables come in three grades and the loudspeaker cables in two. A power cord, FireWire cable and USB cable complete the series. The Explorer Series™ offers unsurpassed qualities in its class: a large soundstage, fine detail and coloration-free sound over the entire frequency range. These are all benefits of one of the long time Siltech hallmarks: ultra-low distortion. Details are evident in every part of the frequency spectrum without the slightest over-accentuation or harshness. We are confident in having developed a range of very desirable, high-end cables offering an unprecedented quality/price performance. The Explorer Series™ is laser-engraved with a compass and individual serial numbering. : choose your direction!
