shielded conductors, a ferrite impregnated outer
jacket, nickel plated connections machined from
solid copper.

Usage Tips

All of the xStream Power cable models use a
great deal of copper in the conductors and heavy
metal shielding. The overbuilt design can make
the cable somewhat inexible. Pre-bending the
cable may help shape it to t the desired loca­tion. Do not apply excessive force to the cable
while one or both ends are plugged into a power
source or electronic component.

open up further and high frequencies will sound
more natural. After installation the cables may al­ter the sound of the audio system. Re-adjusting
tonal controls and the locations of the speakers
in the room may be necessary as the audio sys­tem will provide a more true-to-the-signal sound

receptacle. The
Power Port offers
the strongest grip

Power cables to
allow for the best
power connection
possible.
