Blue Heaven 3 Power Cord

BLUE HEAVEN 3 POWER CORD

One of the easiest ways to cut a system off at the knees is to run your components on stock power cords. Not even hifi component manufacturers would dare to use the AC cables they supply in the box in their own show rooms. Power Cords are fundamental to system performance. In fact, the effects are so demonstrable and so obvious, that they are quickly being recognized as the most important cables in your system, and an essential part of a system's foundation.

The Blue Heaven 3 Power Cord employs high-speed, low-loss, heavy gauge 3 x 14 AWG Micro Mono-Filament conductors sheathed in FEP insulation. The minimal dielectric effect and propagation delay ensures that power is transported as directly as possible, straight to your equipment. At the same time, its audio-grade connectors maintain the low source impedance of your AC, allowing you to immerse yourself in system performance.

LEIF –  UNIVERSAL CABLE SYSTEM

Nordost’s entry level cable ranges are perfect examples of quality cabling set at an affordable price range. The Leif family uses scientifically proven methods and technology derived from the development of our Valhalla and Odin ranges and applies their basic principles to create cables which evoke dynamic, low-loss and realistic performances from even modest components and loudspeakers.

Leif cables are constructed using silver-plated, OFC solid core conductors, which form the basis of Nordost’s great sound. The conductors are then treated with Nordost’s innovative precision FEP extrusion process, where each conductor is individually enclosed in FEP insulation. This technique greatly reduces the dielectric properties of the cables in order to increase signal speeds and accuracy in signal transfer.

To build upon this foundation, Leif cables are designed with a mechanically tuned construction that optimizes the dimensions and spacing of conductors to reduce dielectric effects even further.
