IN-HOME AUDITION

Model 555  14AWG
Model 560  10AWG
G = gold plated

This heavy gauge handcrafted power cord gives full-powered tight bass response, an expanded 3-dimensional sound stage, and cleaner less sibilant highs.  Vocals will be more dynamic and live sounding because they will no longer be shortchanged with leftover power, or clouded by unwanted EMI & RFI from the power lines or your other digital components.

Audiophile Quality Parts.

Finally an AC mains power cord with audiophile grade connectors on both ends.  This is our New Millennium model with super heavy duty WATTaGATE IEC female connector and Hubbell 8215C Hospital Grade male plug on the Models 555 and 560.  The Models 555G and 560G have gold plated WATTaGATE connectors on both ends.  The bare ends of the individual copper wires are treated with ProGold before being secured and shrink sealed into these maximum quality connectors.

Double Toroid  EMI & RFI Filters.

These high power cords are double filtered from DC to 1MHz with proprietary toroidal type filters that have extra high resistance to saturation by heavy current loads.  Since these toroidal filters are non-inline, they don't choke off any of the necessary current to your power supply during extreme music passages.  The filters are at both ends of the cord to filter in both directions.  This will filter unwanted EMI & RFI from your power company lines from getting into the component.  It will also eliminate the noises generated by the component, especially digital sources such as CD & DVD, from feeding back through the AC line to your other equipment.

The 15amp Hubbell & WATTaGATE plugs are UL & CSA approved.  The wires are UL, CSA, & MSHA approved to 600 volts.  The black outer braid is flame retardant and makes these huge cords easier to handle while protecting them from abrasion.  These cords are highly flexible and can be connected to lighter weight components and easily snaked around obstacles.

This great sounding power cord is shipped already 80% burned-in on our custom proprietary Granite Audio Factory power cord burn-in treatment box, so you can begin enjoying the benefits to your favorite music as soon as you connect it in your system.  The 5 foot and 8 foot cables are in-stock & ready-to-ship.  Any custom length is available on 2 week lead time to allow for fabrication and burn-in.

MIL SPEC materials for reliable super long life.

ACTUAL CUSTOMER REVIEWS OF THE MODEL #555 POWER CORD.


Don, 
What a big difference the
#555 power cords have made on the Martain Logans Sl-3 speakers.  After listening to them over the weekend I've noticed an improvement overall.  The speakers sound a lot more powerful, the bass and midrange a lot clearer.  Another thing I like, the cords are very flexible which makes it easy to route.  Excellent for a heavy cord.  I'm looking forward to power my Sims components with your cords.  I feel I was very lucky to have found a first class company that cares about their product and customers.  I highly recommend your product to everyone or least give Granite a listen. 
Thank You, B.P.  Bloomington, IN.

Dear Mr. Hoglund:
Your power cords have made a believer out of me. I am skeptical about the claims cable manufacturers make regarding their products. I have found that their claims are really over-emphasized and what the consumer is really getting is a better looking, better constructed cable, but not necessarily an improvement in sound. While these first two attributes are desirable, if the product doesn't deliver the benefits purported by the manufacturer, the consumer is not really getting their money's worth.

I was skeptical about the benefits your power cords would deliver, but decided to try them anyway because I believe that some companies really do make quality products that are worth the money in the performance they deliver. One goes through so many mediocre products to find an exceptional product, and Granite Audio power cords are exceptional products.

I was only expecting to get better dynamics from your power cord, but was pleasantly surprised realizing your power cord delivered much more. Dynamics are so smooth and powerful. There is nothing like watching a movie and having the soundtrack or effects go from calm and quite to powerful, devastating, and oh so smooth. Your power cords do really good things to the bass, making this part of the audio spectrum solid and powerful. Owners of Krell, Pass Labs, Boulder, Classe, and other muscle amps would be in sheer heaven with your power cords.

Your power cords also have a dramatic impact on the soundstaging ability of my Proceed Amp 2. The sound stage widened and deepened giving me a more 3-D image. This first came apparent when I was originally feeding my cd player directly to my power amp. This type of set up has gotten an undeserved bad reputation in the audio press, but if they could hear your power cord in this type of system, I bet a lot of minds would change. Even with the addition of a high quality tube preamp, which are known to excel in dimensionality, I find your power cord indispensable.

As equally as important as the quality of your power cords, Granite Audio is a winner in the customer service department. You have been a pleasure to do business with, really caring about what I thought about your power cords. You make an exceptional product at a fair price and care about your customer. You have a top notch company and should be proud of it. I highly recommend your power cords and doing business with your company.
Very truly yours, Michael L.
