*Upgraded Power Cable Specifically Designed for High-Current Components
Pangea Audios AC-9 high-current power cable has been one of our bestsellers for years. And now this high-performance, affordable cable gets a nice performance boost with the AC-9 MkII version, thanks to the addition of premium Cardas Grade One Copper. Its the affordable AC power cable of choice, for hi-fi and home theater amplifiers, powered subwoofers, and other high-current AV components.
Despite its name, the AC-9 MkII isnt, in fact, a nine-gauge cable. Its actually a seven-gauge cable, which means its even heftier than the nine-gauge! (The lower the gauge, the thicker the cable.) This difference is especially noticeable in the bass, where the AC-9 MkII outperforms power cables costing many times more.
*Specifically Designed for High-current Gear
The AC-9 MkII has been designed specifically to deliver the high current needed by mono, stereo, and integrated power amplifiers. Its also ideal for powered subwoofers and makes a great choice for use with high-current-demanding line conditioners. Its combination of superior materials, advanced geometry, and noise-fighting shielding enhances the performance of connected components.
Because of their high current requirements, power amps benefit from heavier gauge conductors than normal power cords offer. Although the AC-9 MkII uses large-diameter conductors, it requires less shielding than power cables that are designed for use with source components. Therefore, the AC-9 MkII offers greater flexibility than other heavy-duty power cables. That makes it kinder to your gear and easier to work with.
*Superior Noise Rejection
The AC-9 MkII boasts conductors made from Cardas Grade One Copper and 99.99% purity OFC copper conductors for maximum conductivity. Its 7-AWG construction facilitates high-current power delivery, while its five-way multi-gauge geometry optimizes 50/60 Hz AC power.
Counter-spiraled conductors offer superior noise rejection. Double-shielded provides high-current noise isolation. The 24k gold-plated contacts offer superior electrical contact. Special two-shot molded connector bodies protect vital AC connections from oxidation and corrosion for long life.
*DeathGrip IEC
One weak link in the power chain that is often overlooked is the IEC connector. We found a good one for our Pangea cables. It had large contacts and gripped firmly. Then Jay Victor discovered another IEC connector with massive gold-plated contacts that gripped a components IEC better than anything he had ever seen.
Its like a death grip, reported Jay. We need to use it on our high-end cables. We agreed with Jay, and the DeathGrip IEC was born.
