AC POWER CONDITIONERS
All your Hi-Fi components are connected to the power line along with every other electrical device in your house, and to every home and factory also using the power grid.
Power equipment on the AC line generates noise that travels back into the line where it enters your audio components. This noise is called electromagnetic interference or EMI. Light dimmers, refrigerators, and other household appliances put high-frequency junk in the AC line. Vacuum cleaners and electrical power tools are a major source of power-line noise because the fibres in the motors' brushes are continually making and breaking contact. The Line is also polluted by AM radio stations; power lines act as antennae, superimposing the AM signal over the 50/60Hz line.
All of these problems can be controlled with a well-designed AC power-line conditioner. They provide the optimum AC environment for your components so that they may realise their full potential. The sonic benefits of a good line conditioner include a "blacker" background, with less low-level grunge and noise. The treble often becomes sweeter, less grainy and more extended.
If you haven't tried a power-line conditioner, you may not have heard your system at its best.
AC POWER CABLES
Power cables have become very popular recently as more and more listeners discover their benefits.
The noise problems mentioned above can be reduced with careful AC cable design. Magnetic interaction and coupling between the conductors is reduced with dedicated audio power cables, resulting in better transfer of AC to the audio component.

audioquest NRG-Z3 (NRGZ3) AC Power Cables
|
|
NRG-Z3 (3-pole) cables use direction-controlled Perfect-Surface Copper (PSC) conductors in a Semi-Solid Concentric arrangement in which the individual copper strands are packed more tightly and never change position within the bundle. This construction significantly reduces strand interaction distortion. The astonishingly smooth and pure Perfect-Surface conductors minimize distortion caused by grain boundaries and surface discontinuities that exist in any metal conductor. In addition, NRG-Z3's direction-controlled silver-plated shield conductors efficiently drain RF noise to ground.

NRG-Y2 - Low-Distortion 2-Pole Power Cable
audioquest are delighted to bring the technology that has made the Storm Series of NRG power cablers such a raging success to these new affordable entry-level cables.
These AC cables take advantage of the same get-out-of-the-way and Noise-Dissipation technologies as the NRG Storm Series of AC cables, but at significantly lower prices.
The NRG-Y2 AC cables use Long Grain Copper (LGC) in a 7 strand Semi Solid Concentric arrangement in which the strands never change position withinn the bundle. This technique significatnly reduces strand-interaction distortion. The higher purity and fewer grains within LGC copper further reduce distortion.

P20
Demanding systems require remarkable power. The DirectStream P20 Power Plant is our finest expression of the art of delivering protected, pure, regulated, distortion-free AC power. With peak power levels of 3600 watts, no equipment can tax the mighty P20. Finally, your most coveted components have the opportunity to unleash their full potential, no longer hindered by dynamic drops in AC caused by the unavoidable resistance of the miles of wiring between you and the power station. DirectStream P20 regulates both long-term fluctuations and peak dynamic without deviation, ensuring a solid foundation from which to build a state-of-the-art system. Its low output impedance and unhindered AC delivery are equivalent to less than 50 feet of 12 gauge wire connected directly to your city power source without the connecting miles of wire, the many transformers, and the multiple neighbors weakening and contaminating your power. The most demanding music systems require nothing less than the P20.
