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:

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.

They must have changed the manufacturing.  I've seen video of some products being made in Irvine.  Good to know the cable is US made at least.

I hope not . But it would be good for Audioquest; I hope more transparency from Audioquest; especially in the way of promoting and selling its products on the market ..

I can remember Tara Labs being spanked a few years ago along this same course. Rumor was those guys were outsourcing, destination unknown but thought to china, and jacketing stated Made in USA.
Happy Listening!
Can anyone tell me how I can see if my Dragon High Current cable is the 11 AWG or newer 12 AWG version? Thanks!
So my understanding is that there has actually not been a change in the design of the Dragon but what has changed is how they describe it. The copper is only a small proportion and in the shields and the primary conductors are silver hence the design to now characterize it as 100% PSS and so on. I own Dragond purchased eighteen months ago and this month and even the newest come in a box labeled PSC/PSS so there’s no consistency to it at all
