{"product_id":"kecespremiumdc1","title":"KECES Premium DC Cable, 5.5\/2.5 mm on Both Ends","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe KECES Premium DC Cable Version 1 is a DC cable with a 2 × 2 mm² cross-section that connects a linear power supply to your device via 5.5\/2.5 mm barrel connectors on both ends.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt replaces the thin bundled cable that comes with power supplies and streamers and that undoes most of the effort you just put into buying a good power supply. Brown fabric sleeve, neatly finished, available in five lengths.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy a better DC cable?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause the entire current your streamer or DAC needs to work flows between power supply and device – and every millimetre less cross-section comes back as voltage drop. At 2 × 2 mm², this is generously sized for a DC cable; on devices that draw a lot of current in operation, that shows up as a more stable supply. The fabric sleeve keeps the cable flexible and calm in the rack at the same time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat you get\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA cable that matches the investment. If you set up a KECES P6, P9 or P14 and then connect it via the bundled lead, you give away part of the effect. You choose the length when ordering – better a snug fit than a three-metre loop behind the rack.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho is Version 1 for – and who isn't it for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStraight talk:\u003c\/strong\u003e Version 1 has the same connector on both ends, 5.5 mm outer and 2.5 mm inner. That matches many KECES power supplies and many streamers – but not all of them. If your device needs a 2.1 mm pin, Version 2 is the right one. When in doubt: measure quickly or ask us before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eOur verdict\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnspectacular, yet important: the link people most often skimp on when upgrading. At HD Zürisee in Wädenswil, we check connector size, polarity and length with you – three details that go wrong faster than you'd think.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical data\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: DC connecting cable for linear power supplies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnectors: barrel connector on both ends, 5.5 mm outer \/ 2.5 mm inner\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConductor cross-section: 2 × 2 mm²\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSleeve: fabric braid, brown\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLengths: 1.0 m \/ 1.5 m \/ 2.0 m \/ 2.5 m \/ 3.0 m\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCustom lengths: on request\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhich connector size does my device need?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTwo dimensions matter: outer diameter and inner pin. Version 1 has 5.5 mm outer and 2.5 mm inner on both ends. If your device's manual states 2.1 mm, you need Version 2. If you're unsure, tell us your power supply and device – we'll clarify it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes a thicker DC cable really make a difference?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor devices with meaningful current draw, yes, because less voltage is lost on the way and the supply stays more stable. For a small consumer at 0.5 amps, the effect is minor. We'll tell you honestly which category your device falls into.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhich length should I choose?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs short as possible, as long as necessary. Measure the route from the power supply to the device including cable routing and add a bit of margin. A coiled-up excess length in the rack is neither pretty nor technically useful – and every extra length costs unnecessarily.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy the KECES Premium DC Cable at HD Zürisee?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause with DC cables, connector, polarity and length all have to be right, and a wrong purchase here is especially annoying. We go through the three points with you before you order.
