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 V16 UNI is user-configurable as Power, Digital, or Wall/Preamp by swapping custom machined screws, according to the legend on the carbon shell. The spare screws are kept in a made-to-size leather pouch supplied with the cord. It also carries a magnetic field-shorting collar for fine-tuning tonality.

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
User-configurable as Power, Digital or Wall/Preamp via screws; leather screw pouch supplied
Tuning collar: a sliding ferromagnetic collar moved along the cable while listening; at the right spot the sound comes into focus, much like a lens. The best position differs for every pair of components, finding it can take an evening, and a poorly placed collar sounds worse than none.
