LessLoss C-MARC Classic Entropic Process Power Cable

The LessLoss C-MARC Classic Entropic Process is a high-end power cable that combines the construction of the C-MARC Classic with the manufacturer's own Entropic Process – a refinement procedure that pre-empts the cable's break-in time already during manufacturing.

If you've ever "broken in" a new high-end cable for weeks and wondered whether it's the cable or your own ears changing: this is exactly where LessLoss steps in.

Why the C-MARC Classic Entropic Process?

The base is identical to the Classic: 384 individually lacquered copper strands of 0.125mm per pole, counter-wound around a cotton core, 14.14mm² total cross-section. The difference lies in the treatment. With the Entropic Process, each cable goes through an elaborate additional manufacturing step; a 2-metre cable therefore needs around 30 instead of 18 hours of manufacturing time, according to LessLoss. The goal is a cable that sounds, from day one, like one that's been broken in for a long time.

What you'll hear

Compared to the Classic, LessLoss promises more organic quality, more maturity in the tone, and an even more relaxed, more natural flow. In practice, the difference shows up most clearly in very well-resolving systems where the amplifier is already on a clean supply anyway.

Who's the C-MARC Classic Entropic Process for?

For anyone who appreciates the Classic concept and wants to extract that last bit of fine detail – typically on integrated amplifiers, power amps, or the central power filter. Honestly: the process is a refinement, not a transformation. If you're coming from a stock cable, you'll already hear the big step with the Classic; the Entropic surcharge pays off above all when the rest of the chain is playing at the highest level.

Our verdict

The Classic Entropic Process is the choice for perfectionists who don't want to switch away from the proven Classic, but refine it. At HD Zürisee in Wädenswil, we recommend it where the system genuinely shows the finishing touch – and we'll tell you if that's not (yet) the case with your chain.

Frequently asked questions

What is LessLoss's Entropic Process?

A manufacturer-specific process that pre-empts a cable's break-in process already during manufacturing. According to LessLoss, it extends the manufacturing time of a 2-metre cable from 18 to around 30 hours. The result is meant to sound more mature and natural from the start than an untreated cable.

Does the cable differ technically from the C-MARC Classic?

No, construction, strand count, and the 14.14mm² cross-section are identical to the C-MARC Classic. The difference lies solely in the additional Entropic Process treatment. That's why we recommend this cable especially for systems that make fine differences audible too.

Does the Schuko plug fit a Swiss outlet?

Not directly into a Swiss type T13 wall outlet. The Schuko plug is designed for Schuko sockets, as found on many high-quality hi-fi power strips and power filters. If your device connects directly to the wall, talk to us – we'll check with the Swiss distributor which plug variant is possible.

Why buy the LessLoss C-MARC Classic Entropic Process at HD Zürisee?

Because we don't just sell you the more expensive cable, but honestly assess whether your system will show the extra cost. Our experienced team knows the power supply of systems from many installations, clarifies plug and length in advance, and helps with integration. Call us, write to us, or use WhatsApp.
