Audioquest NRG-Y3 US Power Cord Low-Distortion 3-Pole Power Cable – AudioQuest
The Challenge
No matter how perfect an AC power source, distortion is added within any AC cable. Even the most sophisticated filters and power supplies cannot eliminate this Transient Intermodulation Distortion (TIM) as induced RF noise modulates the low level audio/video signal.
The Solution
NRG-Y3 cables use direction-controlled Long-Grain Copper (LGC) in a Semi-Solid Concentric arrangement in which the 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!
Features:
- Long-Grain Copper (LGC) with Silver-Plated Drain Wires
- Direction-Controlled Conductors
- Quiet Background and Minimal Active-circuit Misbehavior
- NRG-Y3 replaces NRG-X3 – it also outperforms previous higher models

Very happy with AQ cords. Needed a longer length and they got it for me.
