The Au24 SX powerChord represents the pinnacle for Audience and the attainment of a goal to be the best in the industry. The sound is dynamic, musical, rhythmic, and unparalleled in harmonic resolution and coherence. The Au24 SX powerChord is the result of research and development innovations, and the culmination of 20 years of experience in powerChord design.
Like the rest of the Au24SX cable line, the SX powerChord is made with 6 nines pure OCC copper in the very highest quality XLPE insulation and is double cryogenically treated in house. This wire geometry is an advanced design that the late Roger Sheker and John McDonald put over a year into developing and testing various samples. There are two 13 AWG wires per leg in the 10 AWG SX powerChord. Historically Audience has not been a proponent of shielding power cords due to reduction in dynamics. However, we found that the ultimate result is to shield the ground leg only. So each of the two ground wires is shielded and then insulated in Teflon.
The SX powerChord is beautiful in appearance while retaining high flexibility and ease of use that all previous Audience powerChords are known for. Audience utilizes the very highest quality Furutech FI-50 NCF (Nano Crystal Fiber) connectors. These beautiful AC connectors yield the best sound Audience has experienced.
