Cardas Clear Beyond Power Cable provides benefits way beyond what you might think a power cable can provide. Large-diameter Clear Beyond is specially designed for high-current components like power amplifiers. Clear power cables graduate progressively in size and degree of filtration from Clear M to Clear to Clear Beyond. According to George Cardas, "They are essentially progressively more effective as they increase in size. The filtration is similar in all three cords using a combination of a toroidal filter and graduated conductor lay length variation to cancel out-of-band material. The larger cords have more layers and progressively greater lay length variation." Clear Beyond provides broadband filtering on all three legs through a hybrid process that incorporates a tuned toroidal filter and multipath-canceling conductors in a flexible low resistance package. According to George Cardas, "Clear power cable is in fact the mirror of Clear Speaker cable. Clear interconnects and speaker cables are designed to pass the smallest of changes unfettered by time smear, and this is accomplished by carefully matching the propagation constants of the cable. "Clear power cables actually are designed to deliver smooth 60-cycle power while smoothing out the artifacts," George explained. "We achieve this in part by deliberately smoothing the power signal and muffling the noise circulating in the power system using a controlled mismatch of signal propagation. Essentially it is the same core knowledge that is found in Clear signal cables utilized in a manner appropriate to a power cable." The following information applies primarily to Clear audio cables but still provides an insight into the innovative approach of the Clear series in general.
