Great review from one the most respected remastering studios (Tonality Studios), these folks are behind the Mosaic Records limited box sets and many other world class mastering projects. Very honored to have Steve Marlowe, Pres. of Tonality Tools, write us a little something on our Outlets. Steve and colleagues have been using Maestro Outlets for quite a while now. Read his write up below:
“Our studios produce audiophile label releases and productions for independent artists. Many audiophile power cables and outlet receptacles tend to soften and do odd things to the sound-staging. But not the Maestros. We listen for musicality and increased natural presence. We want to literally feel the visceral impact of micro and macro dynamics along with improved clarity. While other products might make music sound “big”, the Maestros actually improve the tangibility and naturalness of music and vocals. Clarity, transparency and the specificity of individual sounds are heightened in an accurate and musical way. Sounds are also not overly etched or clinical: Music simply sounds better with the Maestros. We also use them for our workstation servers which results in final high-res digital productions that are even more natural. Additionally, the Maestros improve video and high-res image playback. You could spend two to four times more, but what’s the need? The Maestros are very fairly priced and this allows us to use them extensively. Highly recommended”.

Maestro M1 Power Cord - B Stock or Demo
Maestro M1 Power Cord - B Stock or Demo
The Maestro M1 power cord has been designed with the same sonic principles behind the Maestro outlet and it is a perfect match for it. We wanted a power cord that was flexible , would provide enough current and would not be editorial while supplying high-end audio and video equipment with clean unrestricted power.
3 conductors of fine stranded silver plated and tinned pure copper strands carry hot , neutral and ground signals to pure silver plug contacts. We use pure silver IEC and Male Plugs. Wire and Plugs are taken through a professional microprocessor controlled deep cryogenic process. A high quality ferrite is also implemented on the IEC end.
Double shields of 100% aluminum-laminated foil and 93% tinned copper braid with 32 strands guard against interference from electromagnetic (EM) and radio frequency (RF) interferece. The external diameter of the Maestro M1 power cable is 13 mm and with the following certifications - VDE, HAR, UL, CUL / CE.
So what does it sound like? Coherent, Linear with transparency and very musical. No edges or highlights in the upper frequencies typically found in palladium plated silver or rodium plated copper plugs.
This is a very natural non fatiguing power cable with a beautifully balanced presentation.

Customer Reviews
Hi Fernando,
I've now installed a third Maestro M1 Power Cord in my system. With each power cord the sound has become clearer, more detailed, and more dynamic. The tone is beautiful and everything seems more real and natural. I've owned a number of power cords over the years, some of them more expensive than the Maestro, but the Maestro M1 is easily the best. Thanks for a great product.
