AudioQuest - 1.5M Blizzard XTRM Power Cable w/ C13 Connector - Silver/Black

Upgrade a wide range of audio/video components, including electronics and subwoofers with recessed AC inlets, with AudioQuest’s Blizzard XTRM 3-pole AC power cable. With AudioQuest’s Blizzard XTRM delivering uncompressed current, you’ll experience cleaner, clearer, more naturally beautiful and thrilling sound. Available with C13 and C19 connectors, Blizzard XTRM is the midpoint of AudioQuest’s Wind Series, which bridges the gap between the company’s overachieving NRG Series and its flagship Storm Series. Unmistakably serious high-end products, the Winds are sure to impress those new to high-performance audio.

• Perfect-Surface Copper+ 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. Superior metal greatly reduces ear-fatiguing distortion for a more enjoyable listening experience.
• True Concentric Conductor Geometry: While Semi-Solid Concentric conductors use fewer, larger strands that do not change position along the length of a cable, True-Concentric conductors push this concept even further, spiraling each successive layer of strands in the direction opposite to the one beneath it. Because this arrangement places more contact pressure at the points of contact, rather than lines of contact, the overall strand interaction distortion is meaningfully reduced.
• ZERO-Tech for Uncompressed Current Transfer: 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.
• Hanging-Silver over Red and Beryllium Copper Plugs: AudioQuest’s best AC plugs, built from the company’s flagship Storm Series components, enable even lower distortion and better dissipation of high-frequency noise than the high-quality molded plugs used for the Wind Series’ stock models.
• Direction-Controlled Conductors: All drawn metal strands or conductors have a non-symmetrical, and therefore directional, grain structure. AudioQuest controls the resulting RF impedance variation so that noise is drained away from where it will cause distortion. A fundamental aspect of AudioQuest’s multifaceted Noise-Dissipation technology, Direction-Controlled Conductors ensure induced noise is dissipated and drained properly.
