Description

Like the Speaker Matches, the In Line accessory elements remove EMF field distortion over a wide frequency spectrum. However, it is more the inductive origin and elimination of such distortion that is considered here. Any conductor through which a current flows generates an electric field. This field, by re-induction into the conductor, can lead to disturbances in an upper frequency range, which we perceive acoustically as high-frequency distortions, thus affecting the spatial sound image.

To visualize the field lines and their vectors and strength, we make use of the so-called left-hand rule: we close our left hand around the conductor in question and indicate the direction of the current (the signal) with our thumb. The bending direction of the fingers now describe the direction vectors of the resulting field lines. Inside an in-line element, the conductor is now twisted in a chaotic way [There is a matrix of purest copper, silver or gold in which the direction of the field lines are completely disordered], and thus a chaotic variety of forming field lines is generated. The sum of these chaotic direction and force vectors at the end of the In Line element always goes to zero according to the rules of classical physics. In this way, it is possible to break up field-effect interferences that were previously still present, and to clean up the signal.

This principle can be applied to the loudspeaker line, as well as to the signal path with RCA and XLR connectors, and even to the mains line in the high current range. Since the In Lines are elements to be interconnected, the choice of material also changes the sound. The sonically optimal choice can be made with the In Lines in the signal path between the materials silver and gold, whereby no weighting of better or worse is to be made by the material. Both materials have different sonic properties, which must fit the entirety of the HiFi chain.

However, the In Line in the supply line is also available in a Signature version, which performs a special optimization of the resonance and natural vibration behavior down to the molecular structure of the conductors within the power cord.

STEIN MUSIC HIGH-END POWER STRIP: SOUND THROUGH POWER
Passionate about what good music can give you, we at Stein Music have been focusing on nothing but getting as close to it as possible for four decades. We’ve found that on the road to the best possible performance, it’s crucial to pay attention to even the smallest detail. This means gaining an understanding of the sonic impact of widely used techniques and materials.

Capacitors in the mains are often used to get rid of noise. At the same time, however, they are highly nonlinear: this is accompanied by dielectric losses that rob the sound of finesse and detail. The same effects occur when using inductors due to their core losses and dynamic limitations.

If you are using a standard stereo system, this can smooth out the sound and make listening more enjoyable. However, with high-quality high-end audio systems with horn speakers, such as Stein Music makes, you will want to avoid the loss of fine detail at all costs. This is where the Stein Music High-End power strip comes in handy.

The Powerbar 10 Signature is the most effective, elegant and sophisticated passive power distribution device I have ever seen or auditioned. It is beautiful, it easily accommodates ten components of any power requirements with the biggest plugs, has an end-mounted AC input connector for convenient wall connection, and is made of multiple layers of materials each layer grounded in a proprietary way for optimum quiet.

Additional Informations

THE CONNECTIONS OF THE STEIN MUSIC POWER STRIP
All connections of the Stein Music power strip are manufactured according to our specifications, so that we can guarantee a perfect sound as well as long-term stability. For the contacts, we have chosen a partially rhodium plated finish, which in combination with the overall design offers a bit more finesse and detail than a gold plated version.

THE WIRING OF THE HI-FI POWERBAR
The internal wiring of the Hi-Fi powerbar is made of the purest copper throughout. All outputs are wired in a star configuration to a central point, and the orientation of each cable is selected for proper directionality.

THE MECHANICS OF THE HIGH-END POWER STRIP
The Powerbar units are built to be very compact and rigid with a three-layer, CNC-machined composite housing. The outer layers are made of a special fiberboard, with the dominant middle layer being a proprietary carbon composite. This construction is extremely strong and torsionally rigid. Additionally, the carbon fiber composite is grounded to prevent electrostatic charging.

The connector bar’s CNC-machined aluminum top plate, which supports the outlets, is mounted on the base housing with a large surface area throughout to prevent unwanted resonance. The feet of the powerbar are solid walnut, a choice we made after listening extensively to a variety of other solutions.

THE SPECIAL FEATURES OF THE STEIN MUSIC POWER STRIP.
The star point ground connection of the power strip is a central point where all conductors are connected by our InLine technology. Here, the vectors of magnetic fields generated while a current flows through a conductor are completely random, i.e. the sum is zero. This eliminates magnetic distortion, resulting in a much more differentiated sound. At this critical point, we also apply a small amount of our proprietary quantum solution. To protect and mechanically quiet this important part, we seal this point with a specially filled epoxy. All wires and connectors are demagnetized. They also undergo another proprietary treatment that significantly increases the mobility of free electrons in all metal parts. This is done in a very complex process that we call plasma treatment.

Stein Music high-end power strips are available with six or ten outlets.

The DE 3 CD and LP Conditioner

THE DE 3 VINYL- AND CD-CONDITIONER

is an universal demagnetiser for interconnects, speaker cables, power supply cables or CDs, SACDs, DVDs, and even LPs etc.! It is a close relative of the DE 2 with a large active area. The DE 2 and DE 3 represent the essence of 25 years of experience with reasonable accessories for electronic devices to replay music. “Demagnetiser“… that may sound a bit mystical, but what finally counts is just the musical impression. One should feel comfortable, while listening to music at home. You are able to contribute to that comfortable feeling by using the DE 2 or DE 3. A cable or a CD treated with the DE 3 will contribute to a replay with greater acoustic transparency, a smoother presentation or utterly a greater tonal reality. Digital edginess will disappear and the musical event gains in power of emotional persuasion. With the sum of all these characteristics the DE 2 and DE 3 justify the additional effort before listening to your most favourite recordings. A really convincing music playback may only result from optimal solutions in detail for the whole playback chain and the DE 3 contributes to that in a subtle but nonetheless important way at several critical points of your playback chain. The only button at the top of the device controls all functions. There is no need for further operational elements.

HOW IT WORKS

Eight magnetic field generators are used in a perfect switching and intensity sequence . The effect is physically measurable, pervasive, stable over time and acoustically immediately comprehensible.

A really convincing music playback may only result from optimal solutions in detail for the whole playback chain and the DE 2 contributes to that in a subtle but nonetheless important way at the very beginning of your playback chain. The only button at the top side of the device controls all functions. There is no need for further operational elements.

Super Naturals

Super Naturals

Super NAturals

Resonances are present in all audio equipment. If we dampen them, we not only dampen resonances but also acoustic energy that is needed. If we isolate audio components, resonances stay inside pretty long and destroy the sound. So it is a good idea to give them a way out of those components to let them go to earth. At this gateway it often comes to reflections between components and stands. Naturals on the one hand help to get rid of unwanted resonances in the components, on the other hand avoid reflections from the stand. Naturals are able to „earth“ the components they carry in a stable but subtle way. On the contrary cones reduce energy transfer by a small surface, and rubber feet store energy and dispense it later again. String concepts are another approach.These may sound fine, but do not ground the components which often means that sound is fine but without structure.

“One size fits all. I love them. Overall, the sound is enhanced and improved, but with results somewhat leaner and more vivid than others.” 

Super Naturals Basic

Super Naturals are very special feet for components and speakers. They are made of American walnut, ceramic elements and felt pads. Ceramic has a very fast energy transfer. The felt pads are normally dampening, but we vacuum impregnated them with a very special lacquer that stabilizes them and turns the sound to tight, but convenient. American walnut gives the whole composition a very natural sound. Super Naturals are highly precise components. It takes 80 process steps for these items to be completed.

Super Naturals PLUS

Super Naturals Plus are SteinMusic´s latest and most sophisticated feet for components and speakers. They come in sets of three: two are made of African Zebrawood, the third is made of Italian Olivewood. They contain special ceramic elements, felt pads and perfectly adopted woods. Ceramic has a very fast energy transfer. The felt pads normally are dampening, but we vacuum impregnated them with a very special lacquer that stabilizes them and turns the sound to tight but joyful. The carefully selected wood gives the whole composition a very natural sound. It takes 120 process steps for these items to be completed.

Super Naturals Signature

Super Naturals Signature are SteinMusic’s latest and most sophisticated feet for components and speakers. They come in sets of three: two are made of African Zebrawood, the third is made of Italian Olivewood. They contain special ceramic elements, felt pads and work on the level of quantum physics. Ceramic has a very fast energy transfer. Felt pads are normally dampening, but we vacuum impregnated them with a very special lacquer that stabilizes them and turns the sound to tight but convenient. The carefully selected wood gives the whole composition a very natural sound. Same does the quantum physical approach. It takes 130 process steps for these items to be completed. Sonically, they have a similar signature as the Basic Naturals, but play more open and free.

How to use THE Super Naturals

The side with the silver metal ring should always point. They are universally useable under all audio components. Starting at a CD player or a turntable, followed by the amplifier up to the speakers. Always use Naturals instead of the original feet, so that they may directly couple the housing to the ground. If the original feet are higher than the naturals, please remove them. A set of three always has good contact and so may transfer energy perfectly. In some applications, you will not get around using a set of four. These are also available and you may even get singles if necessary.

Note

If you have a component with a heavy device at one side, place one olivewood Super Natural Plus directly where the heaviest part is. Then use two zebrawood Super Natural Plus to balance the device out so, that these two feet carry about the same weight. This must not necessarily end up in a symmetric placement of the feet, but is very important to achieve the best results.

Super Naturals Plus are very stable when you put a heavy weight on them, but somewhat sensitive against shearing forces. Always place  components directly from the top. A set of three is good for components up to 150Kg. This makes them suitable also to be placed under a complete rack, which is sonically highly recommended.
