The PerfectWave AC5 is the best value power cable PS Audio have made in the last decade. The AC5 is a 10 gauge cable constructed with pure Linear Crystal Copper in multiple gauges and shapes.

PS Audio PerfectWave AC5 Mains Power Cable - UK

 

Getting the power from the wall receptacle to your equipment is a critical link that is often times overlooked. The AC5 is PS Audio's second-best power cable providing a low noise, low impedance path for the AC power to connect your equipment to either a Power Plant AC Regenerator or the wall outlet in your home. Improvements to both audio and video performance are dramatic.

The PerfectWave AC5 is the best value power cable PS Audio have made in the last decade. The AC5 is a 10 gauge cable constructed with pure Linear Crystal Copper in multiple gauges and shapes.

Inside the AC5 is one LCC hollow conductor for the treble region, a large LCC rectangular conductor for the midrange and multiple gauges of LCC bundled together for the bass. Equipment powered with an AC5 enjoy a significant improvement in sound quality over any stock power cable.

The PS Audio PerfectWave AC Series Power Cables are meticulously designed to address two fundamental goals: reducing noise without magnetic restriction and optimising the transmission of audio fundamentals through the conductor's core. Built upon a foundation of five patented technologies, these power cables employ innovative cable geometry, conductor shapes, and sizes to achieve remarkable results.

In every home, AC noise generated by electrical appliances can audibly degrade the performance of your audio system. The PerfectWave AC Series leverages a patented technology that maximises capacitance and lowers noise by increasing the conductor's surface area in close proximity to a specific dielectric. This advanced approach significantly minimises the impact of AC noise, resulting in enhanced audio clarity and purity.

Attention to detail is paramount in the PerfectWave AC Series. All conductors undergo spool testing for directionality at the factory, ensuring consistent performance. They are then wound into the power cables in a meticulous manner, providing remarkable coherence and precise accuracy to the sound of connected equipment.

Connectors play an equally vital role in the performance of power cables. The PerfectWave AC Series features connectors crafted from a solid block of high copper content brass, meticulously polished to eliminate any surface irregularities. The fusion of conductors to connectors employs two forms of welding, creating an impeccable bond that ensures optimal signal transfer.

  • Linear crystal copper construction
  • 10 gauge power cable
  • Dual shielded low noise
  • Hollow tube conductors for treble performance
  • Rectangular conductors for midrange performance

Contact Enhancer Option

To ensure the best possible connection between your system, Future Shop recommends the DeoxIT Gold G-Series contact enhancer.

DeoxIT Gold is carefully applied to the plug contacts of your cable and is a unique conditioning solution designed to improve conductivity and provide long-lasting protection on gold, base metals and other precious metal contacts and connections. DeoxIT Gold penetrates plated surfaces, molecularly bonding to the base metals to seal and protect both surfaces.

The benefits of applying DeoxIT gold are:

  • Improved Conductivity
  • Maintained optimum signal quality
  • Reduced wear & abrasion
  • Prevents fretting/dendrite corrosion
  • Forms a protective anti-tarnishing coating
  • Stabilises connections between similar and dissimilar metals
  • Reduces arcing, RFI and intermittent connections

Please select this option from the above ‘Contact Enhancer’ drop-down menu and our engineers will apply the contact solution to your cable connectors prior to shipping.
