Zavfino OCC SILVER DART 1.5 power cable


Hi .

i am looking at  Zavfino OCC SILVER DART 1.5 power cable. The specs look great but I have no experience with this brand .

Has anyone tried this cable and what are your impressions ?  With which (perhaps more expensive competition) can it be compared ?

Thanks.

@ortodox - Zavfino is one of the better cable makers. I have studied their cable fabrication methods and to me their science is valid.

They are one of the few cables I would recommend because of the approach and ,materials they use.

The science behind cable design can get very complex and does impact perofrmance e.g.

  • wire metals - i.e. copper vs. UP-OCC copper vs. silver
  • wire types - stranded vs. solid and which gauge to use
  • dielectric values of the various insulations
  • varoius cable geometries
  • connectors

Zavfino seems to have a very good grasp of all of the above and come up with some great designs that will actually work very well, incorporating

  • very low noise
  • fast dynamic response
  • excellent seperation
  • natural sounding (no colouring of the sound)
  • expansive imaging

The cables you mentioned is one of theri best, so you really can’t go wrong

Are there better cables out there? - YES - but they will cost a lot more and their improvements over your cables would be marginal !

Hope that helps - Steve

+ whatever cleeds  I've a full loom of the Zavfino Prima and love them.  They replaced Cullen Crossover II PCs which are quite good.  The Prima, more expensive than Cullens, providing improvement in detail, attack and soundstage.  The bass detail also improved.  Best of luck finding your happy place.

Count me in as a fan of Zavfino. I'm currently enjoying their interconnects in my system. 

I'm one of those souls who suffers from a lack of "sensory gating", meaning I am easily distracted by sounds most people won't ever register in their awareness. 

Just because one person can't hear the difference between two or more components doesn't mean those that can are delusional. To think otherwise is plain and simple arrogance. 

I do recommend blind A/B comparisons when trying out new components. This helps eliminate a number of biases I may bring to the process, and focuses my attention on the sound of my system. 

Good luck on your journey Ortodox.  

So far I have not seen Used Zavfino cables for sale, I wonder how good their power cables?
