AudioQuest - NRG-Y3 9.8' Power Cable with C13 to 3-Prong Wall Plug Connectors - Black
About this product
NRG-Y3 cables use direction-controlled Long-Grain-Copper 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-Y3’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!
Cable Length
9.8'Features
Long Grain Copper
Long-Grain Copper minimizes distortion caused by grain boundaries that exist within any metal conductor.
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 ensure induced noise is dissipated and drained properly.
Enhanced Audio Experience
NRG-Y3 enables high-quality sound for a superior entertainment experience.

NRG-Z3 cables use direction-controlled Perfect-Surface Copper strands in a 7-strand 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 extremely pure and smooth-surface PSC conductors minimize distortion caused by grain boundaries which exist in any metal conductor.

Need to power two IEC C14 devices from one standard U.S. outlet without running two separate cords? This C13 power cord splitter combines one grounded NEMA 5-15P plug with two IEC 60320 C13 female connectors, creating a compact computer power cord and extension cord splitter for equipment rated within 10A at 125V. Built with 18 AWG, three-conductor SJT cable, fully molded ends, and a Y-split design, it helps organize power behind desks, workstations, server racks, and AV cabinets while reducing duplicate wall-to-device runs. Compatible with equipment using IEC C14 inlets, including desktop PCs, monitors, printers, servers, NAS systems, network switches, rack equipment, and powered audio components; both connected loads together must remain within the cord's total 10A rating, and this power cable splitter is not a surge protector or voltage converter. Best for: powering two C14-inlet devices from one NEMA 5-15R outlet; Not for: IEC C5, C7, C15, C19, outdoor use, surge protection, voltage conversion, or combined loads above 10A/125V.
