Or are they just plain old cable that's just really thick?
How are they 'conditioning' the power and how have you tested them?

As I stated earlier, I am not the designer or any cable expert, so I'm telling you what little I learned from research and the results of the my tests.
OK, the thickness of the cable is dictated by the intricate weaving of cable strands and is covered with a fabric wrap, this is what makes it thick.
On testing, I use a pair of ADAM SA-3s and a Yammie AW4416. The test is simple. I plug the regular AC into the AW and listen, I plug the "new cable" AC cord and listen. I conducted several weeks of listening with and without the "new cable" actually hoping they wouldn't make a difference (because of the cost). The difference is there and is even more apparent when plugging the "new cable" into the ADAMs as well for a total of 3 AC cords. This is the best area to place them IMHO, since the monitoring system is the end of the line.
If you want explanation by the manufacturers I suggest contacting them or visiting
