AudioQuest NRG-Y3 Low-Distortion 3-Pole Power Cable
Overview
Every component in a system runs on AC power, and the cable that delivers it can bring RF noise along with the current. The AudioQuest NRG-Y3 Power Cable is a 3-pole AC cable with an IEC C13 connector for DACs, powered desktop speakers, game consoles, streamers, and other components.
Long-Grain Copper conductors in a Semi-Solid Concentric topology reduce grain-boundary and strand-interaction distortion. ZERO-Tech combines low DC resistance with zero characteristic impedance, so the cable delivers uncompressed transients on demand instead of constricting them.
Direction-controlled, silver-plated shield conductors drain RF noise from the line and neutral shields to ground through the third pin, and all conductors are direction-controlled as part of AudioQuest's Noise-Dissipation approach.
Simcoe Audio Video Insight
Plug the power cable into a power conditioner or a clean wall outlet, and keep it apart from your signal cables where you can rather than bundling them together. Choose a length that reaches without stretching or coiling a large surplus behind the rack.

Why the AudioQuest NRG-Y3 Power Cable Stands Out
Long-Grain Copper
LGC minimizes distortion caused by the grain boundaries that exist within any metal conductor.
Semi-Solid Concentric Conductors
Strands are packed tightly and never change position in the bundle, significantly reducing strand-interaction distortion.
ZERO-Tech
Combines low DC resistance with zero characteristic impedance to deliver uncompressed transients on demand.
Silver-Plated Drain Wires
Direction-controlled silver-plated shield conductors drain RF noise from the line and neutral shields to ground through the third pin.
Direction-Controlled Conductors
Conductors are controlled for RF-noise directionality so induced noise is dissipated and drained properly.
C13 to North American Wall Plug
Fits the standard IEC C13 inlet found on many components.
Buyer's Guide
Who It's For
- The Desktop Listener: Powers a DAC or powered speakers from a desk or computer setup.
- The Home Theatre Owner: Powers a streamer, game console, or source component in an AV system.
- The System Builder: Wants consistent AudioQuest power and signal cabling through a system.
How It Compares
NRG-Y3 sits between NRG-X3 and NRG-Z3. It adds ZERO-Tech and silver-plated drain wires to the Long-Grain Copper of NRG-X3, while NRG-Z3 moves to Perfect-Surface Copper+ conductors and adds RF/ND-Tech.
