Customer Ratings & Reviews

An amazing cable that cuts down noise and resistance. Not only a thick cable but also has a thick threading. Little over price but worth it. Should not be over $100.

This is my fifth or sixth AudioQuest cable purchase and second power cable; I am never disappointed with the build quality or performance of their products. This time I wanted to see if their best two prong solution would enhance the performance of the my powered sub . I feel like the response is much better; and very musical. I'm using it with a Polk Audio PSW125 subwoofer. As stated in another review; my NRG 1.5 also didn't come with the ferrite magnets pictured at both ends in the Best Buy product picture; I assume the latest designs don't require them; The pictures on AudioQuests website don't show them.

The illustration is misleading: The picture on Best Buy website depicts the cable with small magnetic iron clamps at both ends. These small clamps help in shielding electromagnetic interference and reduce electromagnetism generated by the electricity conducted. The actual cable comes without these two clamps, as shown on bestbuy.com. Interesting to note, the Audio Quest website does not show the actual or complete picture of the cable; therefore, no possible way to assess if the manufacturer is actually producing this cable with the iron clamps. This was one of my main reason to purchase this cable. The cable was ordered and picked up at Best Buy customer service counter (have to say their service is excellent). I decided to not accept the cable and obtain a refund, which I did. Need to mention, this Audio Quest NRG-1.5 power cable (two prong) is very well built. For the price, the quality is there, dual shielded conductors, but it should include the magnetic iron clamps at both ends.
