Chord Power Chord Mains Cable

The Cable

We didn’t produce a mains cable for a long time, and it wasn’t until we had produced the Signature speaker cable and understood how important high frequency effective shielding is, that we felt we could make a mains cable with a consistent performance.

Conductors: 3 X 14 AWG high purity multi-strand copper conductors.

Configuration: Parallel conductor layout, dual layer floating shield

Insulation: PVC

Shielding: Dual layer high frequency effective braid and foil combination shield

Jacket: High density vibration damping outer jacket

Colour: Purple

The Plugs

There’s more to making a mains cable perform properly than fitting the right plugs. We did test a lot of IEC plugs before fitting the one that we do, in listening tests it was clearly better than the others. What really surprised us though was just how much influence on sound quality the routing of the conductors within both the IEC and mains plugs had.
The Power Chord is available fitted with UK and European mains plugs. Other types may be available to order.

Built with hi-fi components in mind, the Power Chord worked every bit as well on home cinema processors and amplifiers and turned out to be rather good with high definition screens and projectors as well.
