Snake River Audio Power Cables - Best Unboxing


Hi All, I got bit by the Snake River Audio bug and took advantage of their Labor Day sale.  After talking with Jonny (nicest guy) I bought 2 of the signature hybrids and 1 of the cottonmouth power cables.  The unboxing was an experience and these cables are beautiful. The cables were shipped all kids of certificates and goodies from Idaho.  I can't wait to get these into the system and give you all my feedback.  If you're on the fence, just call Jonny and let him tell you about the cables first hand.

Yes, Jonny @Snake River Audio runs a class operation. I bought my first of many SRA cables from him in 2017. In my system, the Cottonmouth Gold power cord works great with digital components - adding solidity and weight. Currently, one is powering the LPS to my router. Another Cottonmouth Gold pc is powering my tube preamp. It provides tone & timbre to vocals that haven’t been matched by any other power cord that I’ve tried there. And I’ve tried many. It’s delicate balancing act to add a hint of warmth while preserving air and dynamics.

Those are really thoughtful touches and great packaging and nice looking cables. I hope they give you the sound you're looking for @kdoerner!

@steakster you bring up a good point about trying cord rolling. I'll give them a try on different components to see how they do. I agree, class act operation.  I got hooked after buying some Signature Mamushi XLR from TMR. Made an immediate impact on the sound.  I've read such great things about the power cables. can't wait to put them in this weekend.

I have the Snake River Boomslang AES cable between my Jay's cdt2-mk3 and Gustard A26. Could not be more pleased. It took over 200 hours to burn-in, which they do for you, and after an additional 50 hours it actually sounds better than the I2s Tubulus Concentus cable I had. More natural, more rounded, more punch and not lacking in treble accuracy. The packaging is first class, but that's just an added benefit.
