White Lightning 3 Power Cord

WHITE LIGHTNING 3 POWER CORD

Want to immerse yourself in great music? To get there, it all starts with power. The power cord plays a crucial role in your sound system by delivering sturdy, reliable AC power while minimizing the harmful effects of electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequencies (RF). With this clean, stable current, your audio gear performs at its best. The White Lightning 3 Power Cord’s Micro Mono-Filament construction, 18 AWG OFC conductors, and FEP insulation immediately enhance the clarity, depth, and dynamics of your music.

Nordost’s introductory Figure-8 power cord brings you the “power” of Leif 3, while featuring a sleek connector, specially fabricated by Nordost for this cable. This termination is designed to be the perfect match for popular lifestyle brands that require a Figure-8 termination.

Whether you're fine-tuning a casual setup or creating a more immersive listening experience, this power cable provides the essential foundation for superior sound quality. It’s the first step in transforming the sound of your home system—bringing music to life like never before.

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.
