Power cord

Yes, power cords too, have an influence on sound quality. This is hard
to believe and even harder to explain. But it nevertheless cannot be
denied, once you have tried it. Often it is precisely this cable that
transforms a good audio chain into a peak unit. A truly rewarding way to
perfect high-end systems. 

• Single core conductor made of continuous cast copper


• not shielded


• complys with US standards for max. power of 15 A /125V


• to be used exclusively for audio applications


• IEC inlet connectors with contacts made of continuous cast copper
   

Connectors for VOVOX® textura power

VOVOX® textura power cords are available with US (NEMA 5-15) or
Australian Power Plug. On the other end we use IEC inlet connectors with
contacts made of continuous cast copper. 

Made in Switzerland
VOVOX® sound conductors are hand-assembled in Switzerland. The cables, including the solder, are lead-free.

Intended use

VOVOX® textura power cords are exclusively intended for stationary
audio equipment in recording studios or for home HiFi systems. They
shall not be used on stage or for mobile recording.

 Can a power cable affect sound quality?

This is a good question. Still, we are not able to answer it to the
satisfaction of all people as it’s just not possible to refer to proven
statements. Several theories exist on this matter but they are nothing
more than a glorified hypothesis. During the development of VOVOX® power
cables the aim was not to prove a theoretic concept but rather to
implement a simple yet very surprising finding: power cables built on
the same design and selected materials of our analog signal cables had
an audible effect. This was extremely surprising since power cables do
not inherently transmit audio signals. It is not our intention to proof
something with our power cords: we simply want to offer our customers
the possibility to share a discovery and to participate to its
advantage.

Minimized Boundary Surfaces

Cables have many surfaces, or more precisely expressed, boundary
surfaces, like the grain boundaries in copper, or the boundary between
the conductor surface and the insulation. Each boundary is a source of
imperfection. VOVOX® sound conductors are made of single solid core
conductors. Using this construction, the total boundary surface is
reduced by up to 90% compared to stranded wires.

Cable coating with natural fibers

The contact surface between the conductor and the dielectric medium
must accommodate complex interactions. Thanks to the tried-and-tested
solid-core concept, these effects can be efficiently reduced. VOVOX®
textura fortis, textura and vocalis are further improved by a fine
meshwork of natural fibers that form a protective wrapping around the
conductor. Triboelectrical phenomena are no longer possible. The
difference is audible: tranquillity instead of disturbance, an
incredibly tidy stage, perfect transparency. 

Continuous Cast Copper

For the cables of the VOVOX® textura fortis and textura series we use
conductors of ultra pure continuous cast copper. A patented process
permits the continuous casting of 99.99998% pure copper. This procedure
is most demanding and time-consuming. Thanks to the very, very slow
production speed of only a few centimeters per minute, it is possible to
control precisely the growth of copper crystals. The result: tailored
conductors of highest quality. 

What is the benefit of VOVOX® power strips?

The internal wiring of VOVOX® power strips are made of the high class
VOVOX® textura power conductors. To have an optimal effect, the power
cord needs to have a certain minimum length. If the cable is shorter,
the effect will be reduced. For VOVOX® power cables this length is about
1.8 m (6 ft). Due to the special internal wiring of the VOVOX® textura
power distribution, also shorter power cables can be connected without
loss of sound quality. The minimum length is reached by the addition of
the power cable to the device plus the connecting cable to the power
distribution.
