PLiXiR The Statement DC Power Cable MK II – a musical connection between power supply and device

You invest in a high-quality power supply to give your audio components a carefully designed power foundation. The PLiXiR The Statement DC Power Cable MK II extends that attention all the way to the DC input of your device. Silver-plated UPOCC copper conductors, enhanced shielding, and specially developed PLiXiR connectors together form a high-end DC cable for suitable DACs, streamers, and other externally powered components.

The MK II is more than a minor update of the original Statement DC cable. PLiXiR has redesigned both the conductor construction as well as the shielding and connectors. The result, according to the manufacturer, is lower impedance, greater current capacity, and a lower noise floor than its predecessor.

The cable is available in lengths of 1, 1.5, and 2 meters, with various connections for the power supply side and a choice of a 2.1mm or 2.5mm plug on the device side. This allows you to match the connection to both your power supply and your audio component.

A targeted upgrade of your DC connection

Between an external power supply and your audio component lies a connection that is easily overlooked: the DC cable. The Statement DC Power Cable MK II was developed for those who also want to carefully address this part of the power chain.

The design focuses on the conduction of the power current, shielding against external electrical interference, and the quality of the contact transitions. To achieve this, PLiXiR combines high-quality conductor materials with a further refined cable construction and proprietary connectors.

  • High-purity silver-plated UPOCC copper conductors.
  • Multi-solid-core construction instead of the multi-strand wire bundle construction of the original Statement.
  • Teflon as a dielectric insulation material.
  • Thicker conductors and enhanced shielding compared to the original Statement DC cable.
  • Additional copper foil shield for improved shielding coverage.
  • Newly developed PLiXiR connectors with gold-plated, fully copper contacts and Teflon insulation.
  • Connection options for PLiXiR, FARAD S3, and suitable power supplies with a DC binding post connection.

Silver-plated UPOCC copper in a multi-solid-core construction

The original Statement DC cable used silver-plated OFC copper in a multi-strand construction. For the MK II, PLiXiR opts for high-purity silver-plated UPOCC copper in a multi-solid-core construction: multiple solid conductors instead of a bundle of fine wires.

UPOCC refers to a continuous casting process according to the Ohno principle. PLiXiR describes the copper used as long-crystalline and highly pure. In combination with the thicker conductors, this forms the basis of the updated cable construction.

According to the manufacturer, this construction, together with the other design adjustments, delivers lower impedance and greater current capacity than the original Statement DC cable. PLiXiR does not publish a specific current limit for the MK II on the product page.

More attention to shielding

The Statement DC Power Cable MK II receives not only thicker conductors, but also further refined shielding. PLiXiR adds an additional copper foil shield and increases the shielding coverage.

According to the manufacturer, this improves the suppression of high-frequency interference. The goal is a carefully shielded DC connection that matches a high-quality external power supply.

Teflon as insulation material

Teflon is used both in the cable construction and in the newly developed PLiXiR connectors. This means the design pays attention not only to the conductor material, but also to the insulation around it.

New PLiXiR connectors with fully copper contacts

A high-quality cable construction is only one part of the connection. The connectors also determine how the cable connects to the power supply and the device. Therefore, PLiXiR developed new GX16-4, DC 2.1, and DC 2.5 connectors for the Statement MK II.

Instead of standard brass contacts with plastic insulation, these PLiXiR connectors use fully copper contacts with gold plating. This helps prevent the gold plating from oxidizing. Teflon is used as a dielectric insulation material.

This makes the MK II a complete cable connection: not only with new conductors, but also with connectors that are matched to the design.

What has changed compared to the original Statement?

Stated design result Reference for the comparison According to PLiXiR, lower impedance, greater current capacity, and a lower noise floor

More calm, body, and rhythmic conviction as a sonic goal

Compared to the original Statement DC cable, the Statement MK II offers a lower noise floor, better layering, and a more accurate sense of timing and dynamics.

The manufacturer also mentions more body and better-audible nuances, while maintaining the natural, neutral character that PLiXiR strives for. This is not just about individual details, but about the way sound, rhythm, and dynamics together form a musical performance.

Choose the right connection on both ends

The Statement DC Power Cable MK II is offered with various connector combinations. Do not choose the cable solely based on the brand name or the appearance of the connection: the pin layout and polarity must also match.

Power supply side

PLiXiR GX16-4

Choose this version for a suitable PLiXiR power supply with the corresponding GX16-4 connection. Have the suitability for your specific power supply model confirmed.

Power supply side

FARAD S3 GX16-4

PLiXiR offers a separate FARAD S3 version. Do not automatically treat this as interchangeable with the PLiXiR GX16-4 version, even if the connectors look similar.

Power supply side

2.1 or 2.5 mm DC

For suitable power supplies with a DC binding post connection, 2.1mm and 2.5mm versions are also available. Check the full plug size, polarity, and allowed load.

Device side

2.1 or 2.5 mm DC

On the device side, you choose a 2.1mm or 2.5mm plug. Match this to the DC input of your DAC, streamer, digital interface, or other suitable component.

A logical place in your power chain

The Statement DC Power Cable MK II connects the DC output of a suitable external power supply to the DC input of your audio component. It is not an AC mains cable, digital signal cable, or standalone power supply.

Suitable external DC power supply Statement DC Power Cable MK II Suitable audio component

Are you using two devices on a Dual Output power supply? Then each device has its own DC connection. If you want to upgrade both connections, you need two separately matched cables.

Available in 1, 1.5, and 2 meters

The three available lengths give you room to place the power supply and equipment practically. Choose a length that properly bridges the distance without putting the cable or connectors under strain.

  • 1 meter for a compact setup.
  • 1.5 meters when you need extra placement space.
  • 2 meters for a greater distance between the power supply and the device.

Before ordering, check both the length and the connector on each side. One cable type may be available in multiple, non-interchangeable connection options.

Frequently asked questions

What makes the MK II different from the original Statement DC cable?

The MK II uses silver-plated UPOCC copper in a multi-solid-core construction, thicker conductors, enhanced shielding with additional copper foil, and newly developed PLiXiR connectors with gold-plated copper contacts and Teflon insulation.

Is the cable also available for FARAD?

Yes. PLiXiR offers a separate FARAD S3 GX16-4 version. Choose this specifically for the intended application and do not interchange it with the PLiXiR version without checking.

Does this cable increase the current capacity of my power supply?

No. The cable does not change the specifications of your power supply. The allowed load remains limited by the power supply, cable, connectors, and connected device.

Can I use this to connect a device with a different power supply voltage?

The cable is suitable for all DC voltages.

How many cables do I need for a Dual Output power supply?

One cable per connected device. If you want to replace two existing DC connections, you need two suitable Statement DC Power Cable MK II cables.
