Stage III Concepts Kraken Reference Silver/Palladium Power Cables

Concepts Kraken

Although the benefits of aftermarket audio power cables were not widely accepted at the time, Stage III Concepts was the first company to develop and produce audiophile-grade power cables using silver ribbon conductors with air dielectrics, providing audio systems with remarkable (and undeniable) improvements in sonic performance.

All their experience and innovation in this field has evolved into the A.S.P. KRAKEN which represents the culmination of 16 years of research, materials evaluation, testing and the invaluable guidance of countless customer comments and listener feedback.

Stage III Concepts have succeeded in achieving their goal of creating a power cable that knows no limits. One that can be used to enhance the performance of a wide range of audio components with literally any power requirements while offering an unprecedented level of precision and control.

They developed entirely new, larger gauge AeroStrand Ultra™ air dielectric conductors especially for this cable design. So efficient, that they can carry more than 40A without the bulk and stiffness of more traditional wire with equal current capacity.

Their exclusive conductor alloy in conjunction with an impenetrable shielding matrix, a unique wire geometry plus high levels of mechanical damping, brings on definition, clarity and a noise floor to levels never thought possible; even without the use of a dedicated power conditioner.

A true stand-alone statement in the vast realm of audio power cables; uniquely designed, visually stunning, hand made entirely with proprietary components and utterly invincible.

In concluding this three-way power cord survey, the biggest takeaway is how strong they all are. Each brought head-spinning performance that will take your system from very good to outstanding, making me wish I had done this project a long time ago. But the Stage III Kraken is the one that brings me closest to meeting the heady challenge for both beauty and realism. The Kraken pushes hardest those buttons the classical music lover cares about most. They are the ones that will take up long-term service on my amps.

There was more body to bass instruments, there was more scale, the soundstage was deeper and more coherent, and there was a more relaxed sound without any compromise in immediacy or transparency. Overall there was a fundamental foundation to the music, a substantial substance, and an overall rightness to the sound. Voices had a wonderful vitality to them and the sound could go from very quiet to very loud and stay more coherent than I have heard before.

There are many PCs that can do parts of what I’ve described above. What distinguishes the Kraken is that it does them all. This PC will satisfy both the analytical enthusiast and the music lovers among us. Just one Kraken will be enough to alter your sound in startling ways. Singlehandedly, it can take your system from very good to outstanding. Its effects are so noted, it really has me thinking it should be considered a component—in particular, a power conditioner.
