No matter how perfect an AC power source, distortion isadded within any AC cable, especially within a stranded cable. Even the mostsophisticated filters and power supplies cannot eliminate this cable-induceddistortion. SOLID LONG-GRAIN COPPER (LGC) CONDUCTORS: Solid conductorseliminate strand-interaction distortion. Evergreen’s solid Long-Grain Copperallows a smoother and clearer sound than cables using regular OFHC (Oxygen-FreeHigh-Conductivity) copper. OFHC is a general metal industry specificationregarding loss without any concern for distortion. LGC has fewer oxideswithin the conducting material, less impurities, less grain boundaries, anddefinitively better performance. COUNTER-SPIRAL GEOMETRY: NRG-2 power cables have an innercircular array of positive conductors spiraling in one direction. Around thisinner group are the negative conductors spiraling in the opposite direction. Even while the positive and negative conductors are crossing each other insteadof being parallel, the relationship between the positive and negative groups isfixed and non-changing, adhering to one of AudioQuest’s most basic designtenets: consistency. The result is an astonishing clarity, like focusing acamera lens you had no idea was so far out of focus. COLD-WELD SYSTEM: This novel plug design enables a perfectheat-free connection between cable and plug. The connection between the plugand conductors is made using AQ’s Cold-Weld System, which provides a superiorconnection that ensures that the structural integrity of the conductor is keptcompletely intact.   The Cold-Weld Systemrefers to a combination of high pressure at the point of contact and the use ofcopper- or silver-impregnated paste. TERMINATIONS: Cold-welded connectors ]]>
