Tributaries® 3' Series 8 IEC AC Power Cable

Model #: 8P-IEC-030B

At a Glance

Tributaries 8P cables are designed with insulated solid conductors of sufficient size to favor low frequencies. Current capabilities of power cables are a major concern. Power amps tend to draw current in pulses. Depending on the output of the power amplifier, too small a gauge of the power cable will result in excess resistance that may restrict the peak level of a required pulse limiting the transient response of the amplifier but if only large conductors are used the cable tends to lose dynamics and also will not respond quickly to transients; the Series 8 power cables are designed with a unique combination of large and medium gauge wires to form an overall 12 AWG design supporting current flow and signal dynamics. Noise rejection is also a big concern for an AC power cable, and the cable twisting and shielding become very important. These need to be tailored for the application, with maximum noise rejection being the goal. The Series 8 power cables will result in audible improvements by lowering the noise floor, and allowing you to hear more of the recorded information.

The Series 8 Power cable is stocked in each in lengths from 3 foot, 6 foot and 9 foot. Available in various lengths to meet your requirements.
