Cottonmouth Gold power cable

The Cottonmouth Gold Power Cable is built around a focused conductor choice: 24k gold over high-purity copper, and nothing else.

There is no silver in this design. The conductor recipe is intentionally centered on gold’s tonal density and harmonic richness, supported by copper’s strength and current delivery capability. Together, they create a presentation with weight, stability, and authority.

While the Signature Series combines silver, gold, and copper to create a centered, full-bodied presentation, the Cottonmouth Gold line leans deliberately toward bold character and grounded composure. Gold contributes dimensional scale and tonal depth. Copper reinforces foundation and drive.

This power cable is terminated with our own gold-plated US and IEC connectors, ensuring consistent contact integrity from wall to component. As with all Snake River Audio cables, each power cable is custom built to your specified length.

For systems seeking greater tonal mass, expanded scale, and a more anchored presentation, this focused gold-and-copper approach can add a sense of confidence and stability without dulling clarity.

The result is a system that feels settled and substantial. Dynamics remain intact. The presentation gains density and authority.

Grounded. Bold. Composed.

Built by hand, by someone who gives a damn. From my shop in Idaho, straight to your system.

Built by Hand, One at a Time

At Snake River Audio, nothing is mass-produced. Every Snake River Audio cable is custom-built from the bare wire, raw materials per order. No shortcuts. No outsourcing. Just real craftsmanship, by me and my team, one cable at a time.

Lead Time & Curing

Once your order is in, it goes into the build queue. Refer to the Build Queue indicator on our website for the current turnaround time. Once its turn comes up, we’ll hand-craft your cable and, unless you opt out, run it through a 200-hour curing process before shipping. That means it’s almost fully cured, or "burned in" and ready to perform the moment it hits your system. A little bit of settling time is always suggested, but for the most part, they're ready to go!

Build queue is typically about 8–10 business days, and including curing, most orders ship in about three weeks. But please refer to the Build Queue Indicator for up-to-date reference.

You’ll get automatic email updates from the website throughout the process, including tracking once it ships. If you don't see them, check your 'spam' folder. Be sure to mark these emails as "not spam" to ensure future updates.

30-Day Trial. In Your System, On Your Terms

I get it, you need (and should) hear it in your room, not some showroom or hotel suite at an audio show. That’s why we offer a 30-day risk-free trial. If you're not blown away, return the cable in like-new condition and get a full refund, (minus shipping and processing fees). Read more details about our return policy here

Less than 3% of our cables are ever returned. In fact, over 40% of our customers come back for more. That says more than I ever could.

Trade-In Program

Got a Snake River Audio cable you want to upgrade from? Let’s make it easy.

We can accept genuine Snake River Audio cables for trade-in. Just contact us first at SnakeRiverAudio@gmail.com. Once received, we’ll evaluate it based on condition, age, and type, and assign a fair trade-in value, usually 50–75% of original retail.

We list used cables at near break-even, so your trade-in value will reflect actual resale (minus payment and shipping fees.)

I am currently working on a process/partnership to be able to accept non-SRA cables as trade-ins. If you have cables that you don't need any more, even other brands, email and let me know what you've got. I'll need make, model, brand, length, terminations, age (if known), and a couple of pictures to be able to give you a close estimated trade-in value.

Please note: During sale periods, trade-ins are discretionary and handled case-by-case.
