Default XP-22- On the way
Quick question- I'm considering getting the upgraded umbilical cord from Revelation Audio Labs.

I know they changed the style of the connectors. I'm having trouble locating which specific cord I need on the RAL website.

Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

John

He makes good products. Just don’t expect it anywhere to ‘on time’. He will be very pleasant and kind via email, when he communicates, but it will will take time. If you have the patience, go ahead. If you ‘want it now’, don’t buy from Revelation.

Hi John,

I've had my XP22 for over a year now and love it. Clearly the best overall preamp I have owned. Just curious, what are you looking to improve on or change with the after-market umbilical cord? I'd be interested in hearing what improvements the new umbilical makes, so please keep us posted.

Thanks,

Dave

+1 great quality DC Umbilicals, I am on my second setup that uses his DC Reference CryoSilver however you will have a few weeks wait and I highly suggest to email and call frequently. Mine took a few weeks...

My Buddy has the XP 20 with the RA cord and he raves about it.

I know Pass upgraded the umbilical cord on the XP-22 . So I'm not even sure I need one...just doing my due diligence.

John,

What did you ever do? Did you get an upgraded umbilical?

Congrats. I just sold my XP-22. It is an excellent Pre Amp. Went well with my Pass X260.8s monos. You are in for a real treat IMO.
