AudioQuest NRG-Y2 C7 Power Cable - 1.0 Meter

A Powerful, Dynamic, and Immersive AC Cable for Gear with a C7 Power Inlet

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.

AudioQuest NRG-Y2 cables use direction-controlled Long-Grain-Copper (LGC) 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 greater purity and less complicated grain structure within LGC copper further reduces distortion.

In addition, NRG-Y2's 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 audio and video.

Note: This is the C7 version of AudioQuest's NRG-Y2 AC power cable and is compatible with AV gear that has a C7 power inlet.

Long-Grain Copper (LGC) Conductors

NRG-Y2's conductors are made from Long-Grain Copper (LGC), a high-end form of copper that minimizes distortion caused by grain boundaries that exist within 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.

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.

Semi-Solid Concentric Conductors

In AudioQuest's Semi-Solid Concentric conductor topology, conductor strands are packed more tightly and never change position within the bundle. This significantly reduces strand-interaction distortion.

Direction-Controlled Conductors

A fundamental aspect of AudioQuest's multifaceted Noise-Dissipation technology, Direction-Controlled Conductors assure induced noise is dissipated and drained properly to minimize any possible interference with your connected component.
