Product Description
Black Rhodium Stream S power cable is designed to connect high quality audio equipment to the mains supply for a more efficient and enhanced performance.
Why the Stream S?
Black Rhodium’s Stream S power cable is aimed to replace the ‘basic’ power cables used in your system for a better and improved performance. A more efficient power cable will allow your equipment to run more accurately and safely.
Anti RFI
The Stream S power cable is well screened by a tightly braided metal screen system to reduce the effects of external interference. Complementary RFI suppression technology located within the connectors reduces the distortion caused by high frequency noise within the power circuits. The result is less audible distortion allowing cleaner, clearer sounds to be enjoyed from your equipment.
Low Loss Insulation
The wires in Stream S are insulated in silicone rubber because its low dielectric loss ensures extremely low distortion due to dielectric absorption effects in which sound energy is absorbed in the insulation and released at a later interval of time to create highly audible time-smearing distortion.
Mains Plug Options
To further enhance sound quality, the Stream S is fitted with silver plated UK13A plugs, and all other connectors are plated in rhodium. It comes supplied fitted with UK plugs (flat pins) as well as European plugs (Schuko), US and UL (everywhere else).
Sockets Types
The Stream S comes supplied fitted with C19 IEC sockets for connections with most equipment, but it can also be fitted with C19 (high current) or C7 (2 pin) connections on request.
Press Reviews
-
'...the Stream is a superb top-of-the-range mains cable with excellent build quality' (Hi-Fi Choice December 2017)
-
'Whether it’s Black Rhodium’s wavelength theory, all the screening that goes into Stream or a combination of both, it certainly proves its worth in action... I was struck by how well it presented a stereo image – seeming to push the music further out into the room.' (Hi-Fi World Oct 2017)
-
'That’s the beauty of this new Stream cable – it makes components sound more precise and controlled yet at the same time imparts a rich tonality which makes all music sound organic and free-flowing... It’s an excellent cable and amongst the best at its price-point.' (Hi-Fi World Oct 2017)

'The vocal was both articulate but also expressive in an emotive way, displaying both texture and a revealing articulation. The backing music, meanwhile provided a clear, clean bass line that was both strong and forceful along with a midrange musicality that mixed accuracy with a foot-tapping and rather joyful output. This cable is one of Black Rhodium’s best designs... one of the best power cables you can buy at the price point. A perfect addition to any high-end hi-fi chain, the Stream offers a sense of musical eloquence and fluency.' (The Audiophile man July 2017)
