AudioQuest MONSOON2M20A Monsoon 20A 6.6 Feet Low-Z/Noise-Dissipation 3 Pole AC Power Cable
Bring Cleaner Power to Your Audio System
The AudioQuest Monsoon 20A power cable is built for listeners who want more from their home audio setup. Designed as a 3-pole AC power cable, this 2-meter cord combines high-current capability with advanced noise-control engineering to help support a more refined listening experience. Its blue finish also adds a distinctive look to your equipment rack or media space.
Advanced Conductor Design
At the heart of the Monsoon is a conductor system built with Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+) and Long-Grain Copper (LGC). With PSC+ on the outside and LGC in the core, the cable is engineered for high-purity signal transfer and reduced transient intermodulation distortion. AudioQuest’s True-Concentric Conductors and directionally controlled design work together to help optimize performance and maintain clean, consistent power delivery.
Noise Dissipation for Better Performance
The Monsoon 20A power cable also features Ground Noise Dissipation Technology, which is designed to reduce radio-frequency noise that can interfere with sensitive audio and video components. In addition, its zero characteristic impedance from 50Hz to 1MHz helps deliver uncompressed high-current transients when your system needs them most. If you’re building a high-performance audio system and want a premium AC power cable with advanced noise dissipation, the AudioQuest Monsoon is a compelling choice.
Features
- High-Purity True-Concentric PSC+ & LGC Conductors
With only Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+) on the outside, Monsoon's conductors are essentially all PSC+ even though the conductor core is Long-Grain Copper (LGC). Both superior metal and conductor geometry greatly reduce ear-fatiguing Transient Intermodulation (TIM) Distortion - Uncompressed High-Current Transfer
While many AC power cables feature low DC resistance in order to accommodate the demand for high current, a cable's characteristic impedance is also crucial for optimal performance. Unlike most AC cables that constrict or compress an audio-provoked transient, AudioQuest AC cables combine low DC resistance and ZERO (no) characteristic impedance in order to deliver uncompressed high-current transients on demand - Ground Noise-Dissipation Technology
AC Ground wires provide protection from current-wiring faults, but they also act as antennas. Thus, they are subject to induced radio-frequency (RF) noise. This RF noise bypasses component power supplies and is typically coupled directly into a system's most sensitive audio/video circuits. AudioQuest's patented Ground-Noise Dissipation greatly reduces this distortion, yielding unprecedented levels of noise dissipation across the widest bandwidth (range) of radio frequencies possible. Our unique circuit-topology utilizes a common-mode phase-cancelling array, in concert with proprietary dielectric materials which provide additional differential linear filtering. (US Patent # 9,373,439) - Directionality
All drawn metal strands or conductors have a non-symmetrical, and therefore directional, grain structure. AudioQuest controls the resulting RF impedance variation so that noise is drained away from where it will cause distortion. The correct direction is determined by listening to every batch of metal conductors used in every AudioQuest audio cable. When applicable, arrows are clearly marked on the connectors to ensure superior sound quality. For most models of AQ cable, the arrows not only indicate the direction that optimizes metal-directionality as part of Noise-Dissipation, but also indicates non-symmetrical attachment of shield and GND in order to optimize full-system performance - 2 Meter (6.6 Feet)
