    AudioQuest – Sydney RCA to RCA

    [Employee of bestbuy] Compact and well-constructed cable that delivers consistent sound quality. The shorter length is perfect for tight setups and keeps everything neat. Connectors lock in firmly and the cable feels premium. No hum, no distortion, just clean audio. Works exactly as expected and feels like it will last a long time.

    Not for the cheap system.

    Look,if your looking to buy this cable then you already know about audioquest quality,so I'm not going to convince the na-sayers.I was using the big Sur one and it was fine but I wanted to upgrade so I bit the bullet and spent the $$ and could not be happier.I don't think my system is hi end enough to get the Victoria one but hi end enough for this one.I'm using this for the connection from my Rotel cd player to my Marantz amp.

    Big performance in a compact cable

    AQ cables are always a great choice for the seasoned or budding audiophile. I have heard the difference stepping up from Monster and a few other "premium" brands. If you are after the highest fidelity without going for the prices of the ultimate boutique cables, Audioquest is the answer.

AudioQuest - NRG-Z2 6.75' Power Cable with C7 to 3-Prong Wall Plug Connectors - Black
5.0(2)

NRG-Z2 cables use direction-controlled Perfect-Surface 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 extremely pure and smooth-surface PSC+ conductors minimize distortion caused by grain boundaries which exist in any metal conductor. In addition, NRG-Z2’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!
