REFERENCE DSC AC POWER

This state-of-the-art powerline cord is one of our most influential products.

The 2023 revision benefits from DSC (Distributed Symmetrical Conductor) hexagonal architecture, the revamped complex SATI®/SASDB® insulation and X-Shield®. DSC realizes a near-to-ideal electric energy transfer with unrestrained dynamics, enormous transient speed, and immense EMI suppression up to 20-40dB compared to an ordinary twisted conductor arrangement. It is recommended for various High-End devices: power-hungry class AB, B & D solid-state amplifiers, AC distributors, and front-end digital sources with powerful SMPS (Switch-mode power supply). All the units, powered through Reference DSC AC Power, acquire the ability to reproduce the fastest and most complex dynamic shifts and create a holographic 3D stereo image.

Due to the cable construction complexity and excessive material consumption the initial burn-in period (time during which the best sonic performance is reached) is suggested as 100 hours of uninterrupted music playback at least. We highly recommend playing music of different genres.

Due to our policy of continuous product development, all specifications are subject to change without notice.
