BETTER THAN EVER....accept no substitute
audiodharma CABLE
COOKER™
As of 1/1/09, Cable Cookers are
shipping with the new Extended Frequency Sweep (EFS) circuit.
After many years
of outstanding performance, we have pushed the design envelope
and configured just the right combination to create a perfectly linear
circuit
that more than doubles the previous sweep at both ends of the
spectrum....quite an achievement.
The EFS, of course, compliments the high voltage/high current components of
the signal.
The swept square wave now starts at 0 DC and is calibrated at just over 40KHz,
whereas the previous sweep started at just below 40Hz and reached 18.5KHz.
Listening tests and comparisons were performed,
and the new Extended
Frequency Sweep improves on every sonic parameter.
This new circuit translates into more transparency and dimensionality,
a deeper/wider soundstage, and deeper & tighter bass information.
Stereophile Recommended Component for 3 Years Running
- THE CABLE COOKER™ 2.5 GREATLY IMPROVES
the sound quality of all forms of interconnect (including A-V and
phono), speaker cabling, AND power cabling beyond any normal break-in
cycle.
- RAPID, SUPERIOR BREAK-IN AND
CONDITIONING....breaks in more thoroughly because the cabling is exposed
to extreme signal levels and a special waveform that does not occur in
normal system operation.
- SOPHISTICATED, HIGH-EFFICIENCY,
CONTINUOUS DUTY CIRCUIT supplies in excess of 1 watt for interconnects
and 22 watts for speaker and power cabling, in addition to a highly
dynamic extended-frequency sweep.
- UNIVERSALITY OF USE ... allows break-in
and conditioning of interconnects, speaker cabling, and power cabling
simultaneously.
- INTERNATIONAL COMPATIBILITY... universal
switching power supply may be used on any continent....usable with all
line voltages from 90VAC to 260VAC, and AC input frequencies from 47Hz
to 63Hz.
- CUSTOM ADAPTORS available for daisy
chaining power cables and speaker cables.
- DESIGNED & MANUFACTURED IN THE U.S.A ...
BUILT TO LAST
- TWO-YEAR FULLY-TRANSFERABLE WARRANTY
(parts & labor)
FACTORY DIRECT PRICE ......
$689 for Standard version and $799 for the Pro version (shown
below).
Plus $16 insured shipping within the continental U.S.
All Cable Cookers come complete with an outboard
universal switching power supply,
one set of power cable break-in adaptors (US-style), one power cable
extension adaptor
(for daisy-chaining, US style), and 3 pairs of RCA barrel connectors
(for daisy-chaining RCA interconnects).
UK13 and Schuko-style power cable adaptors are extra.
Please see the FAQ page for information regarding custom adaptors.

Thanks again for the phono cable
adaptor!
Still hard to believe the difference burning in the cables can make
even after having been doing just that for over three years.
The phono cable may be the single biggest improvement in cable burn
in yet. You've heard that before I am sure.
....Best, Steve
"I am happy to report that the cable
cooker was just magical!! How you do it, I do not know.
What amazes me is how can ANYONE buy cables and not buy the Cooker.
Alan, I seriously think you should publicize more about the
products.
No audiophile should carry on listening without pre-cooking their
cables. It is as simple as that for me!!!
Thank you once again for the excellent service. I wish you the best
for your ventures."
....Regards, Dr. Afzal Khan
The cooker is working superbly for
me, and is truly indispensable.
The interconnects I am making need at least four days on the
Cooker - I haven't tried any longer than that yet.
They certainly sound good after four days and don't exhibit any of
the downsides of over-Cooking,
but I shall try a slightly longer burn soon and see what happens.
The sound does get better over the next 2 to 3 days but nothing
like the variation I experienced with the 3 day burn.
With a four day burn my customers all report that the sound is
beautifully balanced,
with the small added caveat that the top end opens up just a bit
after a couple of days.

I received the phono din adaptor cable today. It's exactly what
I was hoping and looking for. Easy instructions and perfect! I will
soon
be burning in some of my phono cables AND tonearm wire. This sort of
device
has been long overdue in terms of needfulness. Thanks very much.
....Jeff Lee
Chris and I are always
shaking our heads at people who don’t try the Cable Cooker.
And then they have the temerity to complain that their cables don’t sound
right.
I’ll say this again. Analog fans, especially, need to get a Cable Cooker.
They simply have no idea how good their turntables can sound.
They have no idea that the tiny tonearm wires are holding back the music.
......John Lum
My colleagues and I have
used the Cable Cooker on hundreds of cables.
Having done so, we can’t fathom how other people refuse to acknowledge or
try the Cable Cooker.
If they haven’t used a Cable Cooker, they do not know how a cable truly
performs.
It doesn’t matter if I’m Cooking the Antares or the throwaway patch cord
that came with my DVD player.
The Cooker works the same on both.
......John Lum
"The unit is fantastic. As all of my
interconnects and cables (speaker and power) were previously broken in (or so I thought),
I was astounded at the results. Dynamics better, frequency extremes better, more detail. I
love it. Very easy to use."
......Thanks again, Jon
"Well done! I love it, I could not
imagine adding a cable for evaluation that has not been Cooked.
Feel free to quote me."
......Rick Schultz of Virtual Dynamics
“Thanks for making a GREAT product, that delivers an
unparalleled audio value, transformed my Bybee filter,
and metamorphosized my
Richard Gray.”
……Mark Hampton of Zcable
“More refined (less edgy which I previously didn't notice), greater
transparency,
air/space, low-level detail and ease of presentation. Kudos for a definite
winner!!”
……Jim Ricketts of tmh audio
“I am most impressed. My vinyl has never sounded better!!"
……A.D. Banerjei
The Cable Cooker arrived safely some days ago. Meanwhile, for the
beginning,
I have cooked all my interconnects. The result is stupendous
since they were already "broken in".
The beneficial effect is audible
throughout the whole spectrum,
from the deepest lows to the highest
highs, and spaciousness is more developed too.
I will continue to cook
the power and speaker cables as well, hopefully with further
improvement.
......Daniel
Was extremely pleased with the results after
having all my cables cooked with the Cable Cooker.
There has been a
significant improvement in definition,
soundstage and a cleaner top-end
while the bass is more refined.
Many of the "definitive" recordings from
the 50s & 60s, such as Klemperer's Beethoven 3rd & 5th symphonies,
have
been given a new lease of life. The unit ran without a hitch.
......Anthony
The Cooker is perhaps the
best single thing I've ever used in hi-end audio! I'm completely thrilled
with it, and have had no problems
whatsoever in its operation. I was amazed EACH time I treated another wire,
and flabbergasted when I heard the improvement to power cables. I'm
unclear about how long to treat wires, but experimentation + your and your
customers' track records will over time probably be illuminating.
Thanks for developing a "must have" device.
