AudioQuest NRG-Y3 Power Cable - 9.84' (3m)

Description of NRG-Y3 Low-Distortion 3 Pole Power Cable

NRG-Y3 is a power cable specifically designed to address the challenge of distortion that is introduced into AC cables. Even the most advanced power supplies and filters cannot completely eliminate Transient Intermodulation Distortion (TIM) as the RF noise interferes with the audio/video signal.

To overcome this problem, NRG-Y3 utilizes Long-Grain-Copper (LGC) strands that are arranged in a Semi-Solid Concentric conductor configuration. The strands are tightly packed and remain fixed in position within the bundle, reducing distortion caused by strand interaction. The LGC copper used in the cable has greater purity and a simpler grain structure, further diminishing distortion.

Moreover, NRG-Y3 features direction-controlled Silver-Plated shield conductors, which effectively drain RF noise from the line and neutral shields to the ground via the third "ground" pin. The overall result is a powerful, dynamic, and immersive audio/video experience.

Key Features:

• Long-Grain Copper (LGC): The use of LGC minimizes distortion caused by grain boundaries in the conductor.

• Zero-Tech: Unlike other AC power cables that restrict audio-provoked transients, AudioQuest AC cables combine low DC resistance and zero (no) characteristic impedance to deliver uncompressed transients without any compression.

• Semi-Solid Concentric Conductors: The conductor arrangement ensures tighter packing and eliminates strand-interaction distortion.

• Silver-Plated Drain Wires: The direction-controlled shield conductors efficiently drain RF noise from the line and neutral shields, enhancing the overall performance.

Other Specifications:

• Color: Black
• Length: 9.84' (3m)
• Plug Format: Type B
• Connector Gender: Male

NRG-Y3 surpasses its predecessor NRG-X3 and even outperforms higher models. It is engineered to provide a quiet background with minimal active-circuit misbehavior.

With its superior design and performance, NRG-Y3 is the ideal power cable for anyone seeking a high-quality audio/video experience.
