EVO3 Initium
EVO3 Initium is IsoTek’s new entry level power cable designed to offer high quality performance at an extremely fair price. Initium is a must for replacing all of your free standard black plastic power leads which have been designed down to a price not up to a quality. IsoTek Initium uses high quality materials with intelligent construction to deliver a power cable of outstanding performance and mechanical integrity, which will not degrade over time or break your bank balance.
The science of AC power delivery is not a simple one; it demands focus, and the devil is in the details. In fact, the great increase in airborne and AC-line-transmitted radio signals, combined with overtaxed utility lines and the ever-increasing demands from high-definition audio/video components, has rendered our utilities’ AC power a somewhat antiquated technology.
Where Alternating Current (AC) is concerned, we’re relying on a century-old technology created for incandescent lights and electric motors—technology that was certainly never meant to power the sophisticated analog and digital circuits used in today’s premium audio/video systems. To properly accommodate the promise of today’s ever-increasing bandwidth and dynamic range, we must achieve extraordinarily low noise across a very wide range of frequencies.
Alternating Current (AC), is a far-from-perfect power source. AC power technology is well over a century old and was never designed to meet the exacting standards of today’s high resolution audio-video components. AC noise is present at the utility source, and is then exacerbated by radio frequency noise that is induced (picked up by the AC power cord) and coupled to the component power supplies and to circuit ground. This creates distortion and low-level signal losses via the “masking effect.” Further, power amplifiers can require immense reserves of transient current for their power supplies to react to and then stabilize during dynamic audio passages. Most AC power cords and power conditioner-regenerators, though helpful to a point, are simply not up to the task.
Joining Iridium Speaker, Interconnect & Phono, Iridium Power brings high performance power delivery to the affordable end of our product line.
Shielded, with two Cardas 11.5 AWG Crossfield Conductors, PFA tape dielectric, and a toroidal filter, Iridium Power shares design features with our higher end power cables.
Iridium Power is light & flexible, and comes terminated with our own Cardas 3455R Power Connectors. It has enough capacity to be used with almost any electronics from sensitive digital sources to power amplifiers.
Termination Options:
Iridium Power comes starndard with Cardas 3455R wall plugs & 15 amp IEC connectors, featuring copper blades plated with rhodium over silver. All standard international wall plugs are also available, as are 20 amp IEC connectors.
Pure power distribution.
No current limiting components.
The Nautilus US features the renowned Cardas 4181US outlets; The Nautilus EU features the all-new Cardas 4181EU Schuko. Each outlet in The Nautilus is equally capable of delivering the clean power your audio equipment requires, from high-current amplifiers to sensitive front-end components.
Point-to-Point wiring with 10 & 11.5 AWG, Cardas Ultra Pure Grade 1 Copper. RFI/EMI protection on every outlet, and a star-ground design terminating to a 1 kilogram pure copper Earth plate.
The Reference power bars filter unwanted interference out of the power supply, without introducing additional source impedance. Thanks to the use of high-quality materials and excellent workmanship, they provide maximum dynamics, even for extreme loads. Their full shielding and special filters prevent radio frequencies from being received. Solid power bars in the power strips distribute the power homogeneously to all outlets.
