SINE SW-1 EU Mains Power Wall Socket

The SINE SW-1 EU is a high-end, audio-grade wall socket (AC outlet) designed for audiophile and home audio applications. It uses specialized materials and processes to reduce electrical noise and improve the quality of power delivered to audio equipment.

The SINE SW-1 EU, like other products in SINE's audiophile range, is based on the theory that higher quality and cleaner power delivery improves the overall performance of sensitive audio components. By reducing electrical noise and resistance at the wall outlet itself, the socket aims to provide a more stable and interference-free power signal to your hi-fi system. 

At our facility, metal components undergo an acid treatment to eliminate surface impurities, followed by a 2-micron phosphor bronze plating and an additional 2-micron layer of gold or platinum. This process safeguards against oxidation, preserving conductivity for years. The assembled units then experience cryogenic treatment at -196°C for 48 to 64 hours, realigning metal molecules to significantly lower electrical resistance. Crafted from robust aircraft-grade aluminum alloy, the panels effectively shield circuits from EMI and RF interference. Inside, pressure plates firmly secure plugs, optimizing conductivity. These design elements collectively enhance both sound quality and visual appeal.

• Cryogenic treatment: The metal contacts of the socket are treated at extremely low temperatures (-196 °C) for an extended period. This process restructures the metal at a molecular level, reducing internal stress and decreasing electrical resistance for a more efficient power flow.
• High-quality conductors: The contacts are made from treated metals to ensure high conductivity. SINE states this provides a smoother path for the power supply.
• Enhanced shielding: The outlet features a thick panel, often made from aircraft-grade aluminum alloy, to shield against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio-frequency interference (RFI). This helps to prevent external noise from contaminating the power signal.
• Schuko socket: The EU version is built with a high-quality Schuko socket, the standard AC plug type used in many European countries.
• Improved sound quality: By minimizing electrical resistance and interference, the SW-1 EU is intended to deliver a "quieter and more transparent" sound with a "powerful punch".
• Plating: The contacts are typically plated with materials like phosphorus bronze and platinum to prevent oxidation and maintain conductivity over time
