Red Dawn 3 Power Cord

RED DAWN 3 POWER CORD

Nordost’s Red Dawn 3 Power Cord is the best AC option in our entry-level, Leif family. The Red Dawn 3 Power Cord is derived from years of research and development, inheriting several design principles from Nordost’s esteemed reference-level products, Valhalla 2 and Odin 2. Utilizing FEP extrusion and Nordost’s proprietary Micro Mono-Filament technology, each of the three, 12 AWG conductors are meticulously wrapped with an FEP filament to create a virtual air gap within its own, individual FEP tube. This ensures the uninterrupted flow of AC power, allowing your system to effortlessly deliver dynamic nuances in music. Red Dawn 3 Power Cords allow your system to take the final leap, enriching the dynamics, color, and texture of sonic reproduction.

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.
