Almost all of the effective technology that distinguishes the award-winning Niagaras 5000 and 7000—AQ’s patented AC Ground Noise-Dissipation System, Transient Power Correction, extremely wide-bandwidth Level-X linear filtering, and more—is here, but at a more accessible price.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePatented Ground-Noise Dissipation System \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGreatly reduces ground-borne noise without compromising safety or creating low-level ground loops.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTransient Power Correction \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProvides power amplifiers a current reservoir of over 55 amps peak (up to 25mS) for AC current transients.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eLevel-X Linear Noise-Dissipation Technology \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEnsures the most consistent and widest bandwidth noise dissipation possible, without the inconsistent multi-node resonant peaking typically found in most AC power conditioners.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAQ-Formed AC RF Filtering Capacitors \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDramatically improve linearity and minimize distortions, while dissipating AC line and radio-coupled noise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e7 Low-Z NRG Series AC Power outlets: \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e2 High-Current Low-Z Power; 5 Level-X Linear-Filtered Power (source components) outlets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eNon-Sacrificial Surge Protection \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWill accept multiple transient power surges and spikes up to 6000V or 3000A without damage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOver-Voltage Shutdown with Automatic Reset \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEnacts shutdown at approximately 17% above optimal AC input levels, until the incoming AC voltage returns to a safe range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cu\u003eNRG-Z3 Low-Distortion 3-Pole AC Power Cable - 3.28' (1m)\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNRG-Y2, NRG-Y3, NRG-Z2, and NRG-Z3 AC cables take advantage of the same get-out-of-the-way and Noise-Dissipation technologies as the NRG Storm Series of AC cables.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll these models feature Zero Characteristic Impedance for Uncompressed Current Transfer:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA non-technical analogy for this might be that if you drop a coin in a tube with shampoo in it, no matter how wide (low resistance) that tube, the shampoo (the Characteristic Impedance) is going to get in the way (compromise current transients). Eliminating Characteristic Impedance (\u003cem\u003eZero\u003c\/em\u003e means \u003cem\u003eNo \u003c\/em\u003ein this application) is like having only air in the tube, as close to a vacuum as possible. Whether the amp is running at less than a watt or is fully maxed out, the unrestricted transients are visceral — something the whole body understands, no words required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNRG-Z2 and NRG-Z3 cables take a step further and use Perfect-Surface Copper (PSC in Z3, PSC+ in Z2), also in a 7-strand Semi-Solid Concentric conductor arrangement. The astonishingly smooth and pure Perfect-Surface processed conductors minimize distortion caused by grain boundaries and surface discontinuities which exist in any metal conductor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll the new models also feature Direction-Controlled Conductors \u0026amp; Silver-Plated Shield Drains:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll drawn metal has a non-symmetrical, and therefore directional, grain structure. AudioQuest controls the resulting RF impedance variation so that noise drains away from where it will cause distortion. The Silver-Plated shield drains efficiently remove RF noise from the line and neutral shields via the wall plug’s “ground” pin – which is why even the 2-Pole “2” models have an unexpected ground pin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNRG-Z3 also includes AQ’s Ground-Noise Dissipation Technology (US Patent # 8,988,168):\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs with the Storm Series AC cables, Z3 includes AudioQuest’s Ground Noise-Dissipation Technology. AC Ground wires o_er protection from current-wiring faults, but they also act as antennas, picking up radio frequency (RF) noise, which bypasses component power supplies and is typically coupled directly into a system’s most sensitive audio or video circuits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAQ’s Ground-Noise Dissipation System employs a common-mode phase-canceling array that yields unprecedented levels of noise dissipation and reduction across the widest bandwidth (range) of radio frequencies – dramatically lowering distortion in the attached electronics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"AudioQuest","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51136095519031,"sku":"184204","price":4870.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0727\/2860\/9079\/files\/AudioQuest-Niagara-3000-Low-Z-Power-Noise-Dissipation-System-with-AudioQuest-NRG-Z3-1-0m-Low-Distortion-3-Pole-AC-Power-Cable-Image-01.jpg?v=1758828938","url":"https:\/\/www.worldwidestereo.com\/products\/audioquest-niagara-3000-low-z-power-noise-dissipation-system-with-audioquest-nrg-z3-1-0m-low-distortion-3-pole-ac-power-cable","provider":"World Wide Stereo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
