SIlver Resolution Power Cable - by Signal Cable

I have been looking at these cables and wondered if anyone was using them - if so - how did they perform

- what component does it power (amp or source)
- what cable did you replace (stock or named brand)
- do you have a dedicated line with good outlets
- do you use a power conditioner
- what improvements did you hear

Even though they are reasonably priced - some might say cheap - I would like to get some feedback, since I already use Furutech 10 and 13 gauge cables to great effect.

I just think the silver/copper alloy used might be even better than my Furutech 13 gauge cables.

Many Thanks

Agree with Syntax.
You can spend much more for the same or less performance.
Very nice products.

Syntax, how did the sound with the Signal Cable power cord in place compare to the other power cords you tried? (Siltech, Nordost, Oyaide Tunami, Purist, Audio Note)

when discussing:

fullness of the sound from the speakers
overall weight of the sound from the speakers
bass weight of the sound from the speakers

Thanks

Syntax - know what you mean - but I'm a convert so you'll get no grief from me :-)

Thanks for the detailed response - now I know what you were using I have a much better idea of the capability of the Signal Power Cables.

Currently I'm using silver plated copper connectors - the iec's grip like a vice and the mains have the flattest pins I've ever seen.

They improved the dynamics (speed) of the cable a lot compared to some other connectors I've used.

I also found using small copper spades on the cables aided performance.

Think I'll order one and replace the connectors just to see how it compares to my existing cables.

BTW there is "special pricing" on this model right now and there is a little backlog - shipping date on my cable, ordered yesterday, is 30 Dec, 2013.

So they seem to be getting pretty popular.

Well my Silver Resolution power cable arrived and is installed on my amp

I concur with Syntax- this is indeed a darn good cable and benefits from
having the upgraded connectors. However, if the budget doesn't permit this
upgrade, the stock connectors do a pretty good job as well.

Now the cable it replaced, a 10 gauge Furutech DIY with silver-on-copper
mains connectors, was no slouch eitner and will be moving across to my
sources at some point in time.

So what were the improvements?..
- more detail- especially in room acoustics
- much nicer sibilance reproduction - more detailed and smoother
- a more natural voice reproduction
- much faster dynamics
- a deeper image
- more space around idividual instruments - clarity

One of the best cable upgrades ever

Again - I find myself agreeing with Syntax (BTW thanks for the input) -
Signal Cable is a light in the darkness of audiophile
pricing/performance. Very, very good.

Worth it? - Definately!

Give them a try :-)
