MAGNAN SIGNATURE POWER CABLE & POWER CONDITIONER
Our research has finally led to an understanding of the most important interactions
of AC power and audio systems, and to identifying the most important parameters
in AC current and voltage filtering. The result is the new Magnan Signature
power cable design, combining greatly reduced time dispersion ribbon conductors
and proprietary built-in passive filtering.
This revolutionary power cable dramatically improves all sonic parameters - there is much greater resolution, image focus, dynamics, weight and impact, along with a much quieter background. CD playback is most improved, due to the particular sensitivity of digital timing jitter to noise on AC power.
The Magnan Signature power cable is also available as a power conditioner where the load end is terminated in a hospital grade power strip. This allows the AC purification of a single Signature power cable to transform the sound of up to six components. Although the sonic improvements of a single Signature power cable/power conditioner are transferred fully through conventional components power cords, use of an additional Magnan Signature power cord to connect to the component will improve the sound greatly. The improvement achieved by a single Magnan power cable are directly additive with additional cables in series.
The Magnan Signature power cable is compatible with high-current solid state
and tube power amplifiers, and with source components. it is recommended that
the Magnan power cables be plugged into a wall socket and used as both a cable
and a power-conditioner.
Magnan Signature “Bronze” Power Cable
The engineering tradeoffs involved with our design allowed sonic performance
to be increased even beyond the level established by the Signature standard
power cable, as long as maximum current is limited. The “bronze” is
compatible with source components only, such as DACs, transports, preamps, etc.,
and offers a much higher level of transparency, resolution and imaging. The
design utilizes a “maxed-out” version of the built-in filtering in
the standard Signature power cable and much lower time dispersion ribbon conductors.
For the absolute best sound, the “Bronze” should be plugged into the Signature power strip version, giving two Magnan power cables in series. One “Bronze” power cable can power several low-current source components with no loss in performance. To accomplish this, a custom adapter can be made going from a single male IEC with short cords to several female IEC connectors.
