Overview

IsoTek EVO3 Ascension Reference Power Cable

IsoTek’s Ultimate EVO3 Power Cable

The IsoTek EVO3 Ascension represents the highest level of IsoTek’s EVO3 power cable technology. Designed for extreme high-end audio systems, Ascension combines deep-cryogenically treated silver-plated OCC copper conductors, a sophisticated Virtual Air Dielectric, individual conductor shielding, and premium silver-plated terminations.

Engineered for systems where every detail matters, EVO3 Ascension is designed to minimize electrical interference and provide exceptionally low-resistance, high-current power delivery to reference-grade audio and AV components.

Deep-Cryogenically Treated OCC Copper

At the heart of EVO3 Ascension are three 4.0 mm² silver-plated Ohno Continuous Cast (OCC) copper conductors. OCC copper offers extremely high purity, while each conductor undergoes deep cryogenic treatment at -196°C (-320.8°F).

The conductors are arranged in parallel with a slight rotational twist, helping provide additional rejection of RFI and EMI interference.

Virtual Air Dielectric

One of Ascension’s most advanced technologies is IsoTek’s Virtual Air Dielectric (VDA) construction.

Instead of surrounding the conductor completely with conventional insulation, IsoTek minimizes contact between the conductor and dielectric material using an FEP bridge and air-filled FEP tubes. The resulting dielectric constant is approximately 1.1, extremely close to that of a vacuum.

This sophisticated construction is designed to minimize dielectric interference while maintaining mechanical stability and electrical insulation.

Individual OFC Shielding

Each conductor assembly is individually wrapped in Mylar and shielded with an Oxygen-Free Copper (OFC) braid. This extensive shielding is engineered to maximize RFI rejection and help prevent common-mode electrical noise from affecting the live and neutral conductors.

Silver-Plated Audiophile-Grade Connectors

Unlike the gold-plated connectors used on several other EVO3 cables, Ascension is terminated with IsoTek’s bespoke ultra-high-grade solid OFC connectors with pure silver-plated conductors, providing exceptional conductivity for reference-level applications.

FAQs

Please read our FAQs page to find out more.

Do you price match?

Yes. We match any authorised dealer, including big-box retailers. If you find the same product at a lower price, contact us and we'll match it.

Do you offer free shipping?

Yes — free shipping on every order, with 2-day delivery available on most products. Easy returns and exchanges are included.

Where is your showroom?

We're at 6362 Alder Drive, Houston, Texas. The showroom lets you hear and compare reference-level systems in person before making any decisions. If you're considering a larger purchase or installation, it's well worth the visit.

Can I buy online without visiting the showroom?

Yes. The full product range is available through the online store with free nationwide shipping. For more complex system builds, speaking with one of our advisers first tends to lead to a better result.

Do you offer financing?

Yes. Special financing is available through the BrandSource Credit Card for qualifying purchases, allowing you to spread payments over time with no annual fee. Promotional rebate savings are also available periodically. See the financing page for full details.

Do you install systems as well as sell equipment?

Yes — installation is central to what we do. We design and install whole-home audio and video, home theaters, media rooms, outdoor audio, lighting and motorised shades, and full smart home automation.

Do you provide support after installation?

Yes. We provide ongoing service and support to ensure systems continue performing as intended — not just on installation day, but over the long term.
