Power Cables: NRG-2 (IEC-3 pole)

The Challenge: The cable carrying AC power from a wall outlet adds distortion, and even the most sophisticated power supplies and filters cannot completely eliminate these upstream irregularities.

The Solution: NRG-2 uses solid Long-Grain Copper (LGC) conductors in a Self Shielding Counter-Spiral Hyperlitz configuration. Solid conductors prevent strand interaction, which is the greatest single source of distortion in an audio cable or an AC power cable. The less complicated grain structure and fewer impurities within LGC copper significantly reduces distortion compared to normal high purity-copper. The Counter-Spiral geometry minimizes conductor interaction while maintaining a fixed regular relationship.

NRG-2's RF Stopper filters Radio Frequency Interference in both directions. It prevents outside interference from entering the equipment, and prevents equipment generated interference (from all digital equipment and tuners) from reaching other equipment in the system.

The SkyFi Testing Process for Cables:

Cables are generally pretty simple and do not require a great deal of testing. We do, however, perform a visual inspection of all of the connectors for damage or significant wear. Most power and interconnect cables can be verified with a simple continuity test with a digital multimeter. Some cables feature dielectric bias systems which are powered by external power supplies or batteries. These devices are checked for proper function if applicable.

We do not perform A/B comparisons of cables in real world conditions and cannot offer objective observations in this regard.
