OVERVIEW

EVO3 Elite is a true high-end power cable that uses unique 7-core geometry, high purity copper, and high purity FEP to offer astonishing performance. It is the ideal upgrade for source components, CD players, music servers, DAC’s or preamplifiers. Elite can be used with small to medium power amplifiers to great effect but for very large power amplifiers EVO3 Optimum proves the better choice.

Elite offer fantastic extension and frequency range, lowering noise floor and making an exceptionally stable sound stage. Another top class cable at a very reasonable price point.

DESIGN

CONSTRUCTION: The conductors are in a parallel construction with slight rotational twist. This established technique remains the first line of defense against RFI and EMI rejection.

A)  Conductors:  Silver plated 99.999999% OFC conductors offer an exceptional level of purity with enhanced conductivity. They are less likely to fracture or degrade over time. Silver is an excellent conductor and when combined with a high purity copper provides impressive electrical properties.

B)  Dielectric:  Teflon FEP dielectric (insulation) is chemically inert and has a very low dielectric constant over a wide frequency range. FEP possesses a very high degree of stress crack resistance and a low coefficient of friction making it an exceptional dielectric. FEP is the first choice for safety in both temperature and electrical insulation. 

C)  Filler:  Cotton filler has been used to give the cable internal strength and reduce microphony. Cotton also possesses excellent dielectric properties, the best of a solid material.

D)  Wrap:  A mylar wrap is used to secure the construction and offer a barrier shield prior to the application of a flexible PVC jacket. The addition of the mylar and cotton form a buffer with the PVC so as to maintain exceptional dielectric properties. 

E)   Shield:  An earthed OFC shield insures maximum RFI rejection, thus preventing Common Mode noise effecting the live and neutral conductors.

F)  Jacket:  PVC is used as an outer jacket to give a high degree of flexibility and mechanical strength. 

TERMINATION:   Elite cable is terminated using IsoTek’s bespoke Audiophile grade connectors of solid OFC with 24ct gold plated conductors. These offer the highest quality performance and are less prone to tarnish.

Review:

IsoTek EVO3 Elite power cords I soTek gets power. Every product the company makes is designed to improve the performance of audio equipment by addressing the power somehow. So, it should be logical that IsoTek is the go-to company for power cords. The current range has a ‘good, better, best’ approach, and the RVO3 Elite tested here represents the ‘better’ cable in the three-strong range. The brand has been moving from its previous GII range to EVO3, and in power cord terms, this means a seven-core, silver-plated, 6N, oxygen-free copper cable, with each conductor shielded from its compatriots and the outside world by a Teflon FEP dielectric and a cotton filler. These are then wrapped in mylar, further shielded by an earthed oxygen-free copper shield, then jacketed in an outer sleeve of dark yellow/ gold PVC. IsoTek’s own 24ct gold plated IEC socket is used at the product end, but Furutech plugs are used for UK wall sockets. The result is a thick, but not inflexible, power cable. I received four cables in all, enough to completely power up my system. Why EVO3 Elite won me over initially had nothing to do with the cable. I’ve noticed that my system sound frequently ‘goes off the boil’. Sometimes it sounds wonderful, sometimes it doesn’t. Through a process + EQUIPMENT REVIEW of elimination, I found it is directly related to whether I am listening to music by plugging my laptop into the system. If I’m playing LP or a SACD, with no PC in the system, it sounds fine. Even if I’m not listening to computer audio, simply plugging that PC into the same distribution block as the system compromises the sound. I’m faced with three options; buy a newer preamp (I like the one I already have), stop using the computer, or find a way the system can come to terms with 21st Century audio sources. EVO3 Elite facilitates that last option. I can now use my system with or without a computer in the mix without it sounding poor. In direct sonic terms, when not considering PC deployment, IsoTek’s EVO3 Elite also polishes the sound of a component. I played ‘Shadows of Time’ by Dutilleux [Correspondences, DG], a structurally dense piece of modern classical music, and the sound had greater depth and solidity, the treble became less strident and the bass more forceful, but more importantly – and this sounds off – it was as if the music was standing straighter. The more EVO3 Elite I put in the system, the more these effects helped liberate the music and conversely, when you take them out, the hitherto fine sound of the system became that little bit smaller and more tarnished. Impressive stuff
