Low-Distortion 3 Pole Power Cable

  • Perfect-Surface Copper (PSC) with Silver-Plated Drain Wires
  • Quiet Background and Minimal Active-Circuit Misbehavior Due to Ground Noise-Dissipation (GND) (US Patent # 8,988,168) & Direction-Controlled Conductors and Shields
  • ZERO (No) Characteristic Impedance (Uncompressed Current Transfer)

NRG-Z3’s GND (Ground-Noise Dissipation) and direction-controlled Silver-Plated shield conductors efficiently drain RF noise from the line and neutral shields to ground via the third “ground” pin. In addition. NRG-Z3’s common-mode phase-cancelling array provides additional differential linear filtering. The net result is powerful, dynamic and immersive!

Features

PERFECT-SURFACE COPPER (PSC) CONDUCTORS
The astonishingly smooth and pure Perfect-Surface processed conductors minimize distortion caused by grain boundaries and surface discontinuities that exist in any metal conductor.

ZERO-TECH (NO DEFINED CHARACTERISTIC-IMPEDANCE)

While many AC power cables feature low DC resistance in order to accommodate the demand for high current, a cable’s 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.

GND-TECH (GROUND-NOISE DISSIPATION)

AC Ground wires provide protection from current-wiring faults, but they also act as antennas. Thus, they are subject to induced radio-frequency (RF) noise. This RF noise bypasses component power supplies and is typically coupled directly into a system’s most sensitive audio/video circuits. AudioQuest’s patented Ground-Noise Dissipation (GND) greatly reduces this distortion, yielding unprecedented levels of noise dissipation across the widest bandwidth (range) of radio frequencies possible. Our unique circuit topology utilizes a common-mode phase-cancelling array, in concert with proprietary dielectric materials which provide additional differential linear filtering. (US Patent # 8,988,168)

SEMI-SOLID CONCENTRIC CONDUCTORS

In our Semi-Solid Concentric conductor topology, strands are packed more tightly and never change position within the bundle, significantly reducing strand-interaction distortion.

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.

DIRECTION-CONTROLLED CONDUCTORS

A fundamental aspect of AudioQuest's multifaceted Noise-Dissipation technology, Direction-Controlled Conductors assure induced noise is dissipated and drained properly.
