The outlet is a Cruze Maestro, which is a premium outlet that’s had some rave reviews. Nevertheless I might consider putting in AQ. Thanks for all the suggestions. Final question for those who’ve owned both - is it really worth upgrading from Tornado to Hurricane? I suspect it’s subtle difference.
Audioquest custom made triple weave design power cable (Storm Series).
Hi everyone,
I am interested in having my own customized Audioquest power cable build based of their new power line Storm series, which can be found here:
https://www.audioquest.com/ac-power/ac-power-cables/storm-series
The reason being the new line is out of my budget AND I am very interested in how a tailor made Audioquest applied with my own ideas will sound.
The idea:
• Use Audioquest NRG 4 cable, which can be bought in bulk: https://www.audioquest.com/ac-power/ac-power-cables/3-pole/nrg-4
• Dissecting the NRG 4 cable into three different wire parts: neutral, live, earth.
• Add multiple layers of shieldings per wire part: carbon fibre, copper braided sleeve, carbon fibre sleeve.
• Twist the three shielded wire parts in a geometry as the new Audioquest cable above, also have a look at:
https://www.lessloss.com/dfpc-series-p-213.html and
http://anticables.com/power-cords#!/Level-3-Reference-Series-Power-Cords/p/14644872/category=3461168
These great performers also use the same triple twisted design.
There must be something good going on with this geometry? That is why I want to apply it.
• Finally add, Oyaide plugs at each end (046, 079 or 004) and fill it with special crystal mineral against vibration, EMI, RFI, see: http://sablonaudio.com/index.php/power
First of all, would the geometry and design help you guys think?
Would it be worthwhile to try?
I can get Audioquest nrg4 relatively cheap. It has to be Audioquest wiring for me.
