Audioquest Storm Tornado Source Power Cable - C13

The AudioQuest Storm Tornado Source cable is optimized for use with analog and digital audio sources such as DACs, CD players, network players, turntables, phono preamps, and line preamps.

AudioQuest Storm Tornado Source: specifications This new power cable uses solid Perfect-Surface Copper Plus (PSC+) conductors. The drain receives 6% silver. While many power cables feature low resistance to meet high current demand, a cable's characteristic impedance is also crucial for optimal performance. Unlike most cables that shrink or compress a transient, AudioQuest power cables combine low DC resistance and ZERO characteristic impedance. This allows for the delivery of uncompressed high-current transients. The Tornado Source is equipped with high-end plugs from the Storm series in silver-plated copper layered over red copper and beryllium: AudioQuest's best power plugs enable even lower distortion and better high-frequency noise dissipation.

AudioQuest Storm Tornado Source: shielding Added to this is the manufacturer's proprietary DBS polarization system. A housing on the cable polarizes the shield with a current of 72v! All shields are also equipped with a dielectric whose electrical properties affect signal integrity. AudioQuest's patented DBS polarization shielding creates a powerful and stable electrostatic field that saturates and polarizes the insulation. This minimizes noise and prevents RF from infiltrating the electronics. The DBS batteries are rated for a lifespan of approximately 10 years. A test button on the housing allows you to check the battery status.

AudioQuest Storm Tornado: testing and listening Thanks to the uncompressed current supplied by AudioQuest's Tornado, the device can express itself and offer a more neutral, more natural and more immersive reproduction. Available with C13 and C19 connectors, the Tornado is positioned above the Thunder and just below the Hurricane in AudioQuest's flagship Storm range, the brand's ultimate achievement. The Tornado Source offers remarkable transparency and neutrality. It showcases all the timbral qualities and nuances of the source to which it is connected. Highly acclaimed!
