Stealth Dream V16 Standard AC Power Cable

The Dream V16 revision of Stealth's Dream power cord differs from the V12 in a proprietary pre-treatment of the conductors and in new shells and tuning collars. The cord is about 40 mm thick yet still flexible. Unlike earlier Dreams, the conductor is polished, double-insulated oxygen-free copper with no plating, treated with a proprietary liquid medium similar to, but not the same as, the famous C37 violin varnish.

The Standard version comes in four fixed types that share the same AC multipath but differ in ground layout and ground filtering. Each is labelled on its carbon shell and colour-coded: Preamp (blue stripes), Digital (gold stripes, for digital sources, DACs and class-D amps), Power (five silver stripes, for analog power amplifiers and turntable motors) and Wall (two silver stripes, for conditioners and power strips).

Construction

• Conductor: polished, double-insulated OFC copper, unplated, with proprietary C37-type liquid treatment
• Diameter approx. 40 mm
• Multiple groups of wires in Stealth's proprietary multipath configuration
• Carbon fibre plug shells
• Plugs are an integral part of every Dream cord: the carbon fibre shells are permanently bonded, with a precision-machined collet inside to relieve the joint, so changing a plug can only be done at Stealth's US facility
