If you install this Inlet, you can easily hear grandiose improvement of sounding of your equipment, its performance is so amazing and impressive.
Sound Characteristics
The sound is smooth, neutral and transparent
Three-dimensional deep soundstage, perfect sound focusing
Deep articulated and fast bass
The midrange is open without a hint of coloring
Fine details and excellent resolution in all range
Excellent performance of all macro and microdynamic nuances of music
In comparison to other silver products, sound of these inlets is not bright or sharp. IeGO silver connectors sound smooth, neutral, and rich, with excellent dynamic power and lots of natural details.
For maximum performance of your pure silver product, prior to use allow longer burn-in time.
Contacts material
IeGO AC-01 Ag-Rh is the only Pure Silver Hi-End Power Inlet in the world.
IeGO Power PUM UHPLOCC metallurgical technology is impeccable for the performance of Hi-End Audio systems. IeGO eliminates the noise of impurity silver, extends the sound performance of pure silver, and pursues substantive scientific performance. It allows the signal to be just the signal. The silver conductor manufactured by IeGO Power PUM UHPLOCC technology had evolved into a true technological marvel.
The vacuum drawing method using the IeGO PUM Gourd diamond matrix does not use oil additives to avoid metal contamination. After passing of several stages of drawing, the conductor is exposed to special annealing. All technological processes are done in vacuum to avoid conductor oxidation. The advantage is that the resistance of a silver conductor with a purity of 99.9999% is much lower than that of conductors with a purity of 99.99%.
At the factory, perforation of pure silver bands is done by computer stamping. During the process, the oxides are completely removed by etching. It’s followed by a washing process that removes residual liquid nitrogen.
At the last stage of production, contacts get grinded and then polished to a shiny surface. At last, contacts are covered with a layer of rhodium, and polishing is repeated.
Cryo-treatment
All IeGO power connectors have continuous cryogenic treatment by liquid nitrogen (-196°C) for 20 hours. Cryogenic processing changes their metal microstructure at the molecular level. The crystal structure becomes smoother and more refined. The conductivity of the metal improves, which positively affects the signal transmission, and as a result — the sound. Changes in the structure of metal after cryogenic treatment are permanent and do not change over time.
Connectors with cryogenic treatment sound much better than their counterparts.
Housing material
To maximize the quality of its products, IeGO also pays special attention to other parts of connectors — housing material and fixing screws. The case of power connectors is made of special highest‐grade PC flame retardant Polycarbonate 940A with high specific gravity. Developed by the Japanese company “General”, it complies with the specifications of the UL standard E-45587, has shock resistance, UV resistance, fire resistance, and a high degree of absorption of micro‐vibrations. The dielectric is the best, the capacitive reactance and impedance can reach the optimal sound performance.
Warning
Do not attempt to install AC-01 yourself if you do not have any experience with AC power. If you are not sure about your skill, please ask experienced professional to install it.
Recommendations for installing the Power Inlet
The IeGO company does not recommend soldering on AC-01 power inlets. As thickness of pins is twice more standard and thermal conductivity of contacts is extremely high, it is therefore very difficult to solder contacts without melting the plastic housing. This can lead to damage of housing geometry, and could potentially lead to damage of AC-01 and/or your equipment.
For safe installation of AC-01 we recommend to use mounting accessory set, which is included in the package.
