Hi, I'm Gerardo Ventura and I believe I have to introduce you in detail this very special product.
As many know, I'm very careful to insert special power cables on my systems because I always noted that a lot of special power cables on the market introduce sneaky and heavy side effects on sound: they tend to "dry" harmonics of human voices and acoustic instruments, and make the sound aggressive. When the music reproduction is deprived of harmonics, the original timbre vary and the final result has lost credibility, atmosphere, emotion.
ISOL-8 is the firm directed by Mr. Nic Poulson, the English "magician" of analogue amplifiers, already owner of Trilogy Audio, the brand that make amplifications of amazing musicality, just considered within the best today available in UK, like the 915R/995R preamp-power amp set-up and the 925 integrated. Well, Trilogy includes STANDARD in the 915R/995R box a set of ISOL-8 power supply cables.
For this reason, I was very excited to test the ISOL-8 Power cables, and they have met all the expectations.
The IsoLink Ultra Plus provides completness and refinement, dynamic, dimensionality, and breath to the sound without affecting harmonics, timbre, and particularly without being "aggressive". Incredible musical expression and atmosphere! In short, a power cable that is minimal, well built and fabolously sounding. I unreservedly recommend it. For a more affordable model, with great quality-price ratio, please take a look at the ISOL-8 Wave model.
Cables are made by a process of laying up the individual mechanical and electrical components with the outer jacket. The forms of these components are each circular in cross section and leave small voids between the components in the finished cable.
The high peak current pulses the cable has to deliver under typical operating conditions causes the conductors to move relative to one another under magnetostriction. This small dynamic instability in conductor geometry raises the cable noise floor, modulated by the current waveform and degrades performance.
The IsoLink Ultra Plus undergoes a special process during manufacture to fill these small voids with an elastomer to maximise mechanical integrity and minimise this effect.
A carbon loaded polymer screen provides 100% cross sectional coverage to shield the conductions against electromagnetic interference. A flexible synthetic rubber jacket provides the final layer ensuring total mechanical stability with very low loss electrical characteristics.
After careful audition Isol-8 have selected the audiophile MS Power rhodium plated connectors to complete the IsoLink Ultra Plus’s specification.
Designed and Made In The UK.

Designed and manufactured in the UK, we supply the finest power conditioning and distribution equipment for hi-fi and audio visual systems. If you are looking for power management, a simple performance lift or you are chasing the state-of-the-art, we can provide the best solution for you.
There is no "one size fits all" solution when it comes to effective power conditioning. We know this through many years of development and hard won experience.
We offer a range of products so you can benefit from the optimum solution for your system. A good rule of thumb is to spend 10% of your system cost to optimise your power supply.
The purpose of any high fidelity system is to take you as close as possible to the original performance. We strive to reduce the compromises involved and get closer to the emotion, closer to the music.
Each component in our system is an imperfect link in a chain, transforming the energy it receives from one form to another and eventually on to us.
The most fundamental, most overlooked link in the chain is the power supply, the source of our systems energy. We plug into the wall, the device works and we take it for granted. Mains power is in fact the start of the chain, the very foundation on which the music is built and is worthy of greater scrutiny.

Cavo eccezionale!
La sostituzione dei cavi di alimentazione nel mio impianto cuffia dedicato è stata incredibile per gli effetti positivi.
Soprattutto in termini di ampiezza e precisione della scena sonora. Ascolto solo musica classica, sia con grande orchestra, che con piccole formazioni da camera e la dislocazione degli strumenti nel palco, ha beneficiato sensibilmente con i cavi in argomento. Un upgrade indispensabile non meno rilevante (per restare in ambito cavi) di quello ipotizzabile sui cavi di segnale.
Prodotti eccellenti anche per materiali, costruzione e evidente affidabilità!!
Ottimo cavo di alimentazione
Ho acquistato il cavo leggendo la descrizione del Sig. Ventura e confermo in ogni punto quanto ha scritto. Mi sento di aggiungere una nota su una caratteristica che ho riscontrato raramente nei cavi di alimentazione: la scansione dei piani sonori, che consente una rappresentazione molto tridimensionale della scena. Ci sono cavi che contribuiscono a produrre un palcoscenico profondo o ampio (o ambedue) ma piuttosto piatto in quanto ai differenti piani. Mi riferisco per esempio ad un'orchestra, nella quale i musicisti sono posizionati su diverse file. Non è semplice riprodurre questa caratteristica. Ebbene questo cavo riesce a favorirla, merito forse della sua ariosità. L'unica nota un po' dolente è la sua relativa rigidità (nonostante il diametro non sia grande). Occorre far attenzione alla lunghezza perché deve fare curve abbastanza ampie per essere messo in posizione.
