Pangea Audio AC 14 XL MKII Power Cable

Customer raves were pouring in for Pangea Audios AC-14XL power cable. Its specifically designed to enhance the performance of preamps, CD players, Blu-ray players, DACs, and other line-level components.

Affordable Reference Power Cable for Source Components, Now with Cardas Grade One Copper
Customer raves were pouring in for Pangea Audios AC-14XL power cable. These top-of-the-line audio cables for source components sold incredibly well until suddenly the Japanese manufacturer of the high-grade PCOCC copper used in AC-14XL announced they were ceasing production.

What to do? With the Japanese copper unavailable, Pangea Audio discovered another form of premium copper that was being produced by industry legend George Cardas, founder of Cardas Audio.

*The AC-14XL MkII Story
Heres the story behind the Pangea Audio AC-14XL (which just became the AC-14XL MkII with an upgrade to Cardas Grade One Copper).

After the HUGE success of Jay Victors Pangea AC-14SE upgrade power cable for source components, Pangea Audio challenged Jay to do even better.

I can think of several things we could improve, Jay answered enthusiastically. I can use much better copper. I can also increase the shielding and improve the cable geometry to reduce the background noise. This cable will be better, but it will also be more expensive.

Pangea Audios management told Jay to go ahead with the project. They couldnt wait to see and hear what Jay could do with a bigger budget. We work closely with Pangea, and we couldnt wait for the results, either.

*Solid Copper Blades, Screw-in Ground Pin
Weeks later, Pangea received a message from Jay. Last night, on my flight from Taiwan to Hong Kong, I got thinking about your new cable project. I want to use solid copper blades for the AC connections and upgrade to a screw-in/out solid copper ground pin. That will make the cable grip the AC receptacle tighter and make it easy for customers to cancel any ground hum [by removing the ground pin].

*Now Even Better Than Ever, Thanks to Cardas Grade One Copper
As great as the original AC-14XL AC power cable was, the new AC-14XL MkII is even better, thanks to the upgrade to Cardas Grade One Copper conductors. Give AC-14XL a try. You wont find any cable at anywhere near the price that offers this kind of level of performance.
