Product Description

Low-Distortion 2 Pole Power Cable
Perfect-Surface Copper + (PSC+) with Silver-Plated Drain Wires
Quiet Background and Minimal Active-Circuit Misbehavior Due to Direction-Controlled Conductors and Shields
ZERO (No) Characteristic Impedance (Uncompressed Current Transfer)

THE CHALLENGE: No matter how perfect an AC power source, distortion is added within any AC cable. Even the most sophisticated filters and power supplies cannot eliminate this Transient Intermodulation Distortion (TIM) as the induced RF noise modulates the low-level audio/video signal.

THE SOLUTION: NRG-Z2 cables use direction-controlled Perfect-Surface Copper + (PSC+) strands in a Semi-Solid Concentric conductor arrangement in which strands are packed more tightly and never change position within the bundle. This construction significantly reduces strand interaction distortion. The extremely pure and smooth-surface PSC+ conductors minimize distortion caused by grain boundaries which exist in any metal conductor.

In addition, NRG-Z2s direction-controlled Silver-Plated shield conductors efficiently drain RF noise from the line and neutral shields to ground via the third ground pin. The net result is powerful, dynamic and immersive!

SEMI-SOLID CONCENTRIC PERFECT-SURFACE COPPER+ (PSC+) CONDUCTORS
In a Semi-Solid Concentric arrangement, the conductor strands are packed more tightly and never change position within the bundle. This construction significantly reduces strand-interaction distortion. The extremely pure and smooth surface PSC+ conductors minimize distortion caused by the grain boundaries that exist within any metal conductor.

SILVER-PLATED DRAIN WIRES
Direction-controlled Silver-Plated shield conductors efficiently drain RF noise from the line and neutral shields to ground via the third ground pin. The net result is powerful, dynamic, and immersive.

ZERO CHARACTERISTIC IMPEDANCE
While many AC power cables feature low DC resistance in order to accommodate the demand for high current, a cables characteristic impedance is also crucial for optimal performance. Unlike most AC cables that constrict or compress an audio-provoked transient, AudioQuest AC cables combine low DC resistance and zero (no) characteristic impedance in order to deliver uncompressed transients on demand.
