Audioquest custom made triple weave design power cable (Storm Series).

Thanks for the input above.

Here’s some more info on the existing geometry and gauge of Audioquest nrg4:

Gauge: 14 AWG aggregate
Conductors:
Inside: 2x19 AWG PSC+, 2x19 AWG PSC
Outside: 5x20 AWG PSC+, 5x20 AWG PSC

Any ideas on what to do exactly with the Live, Neutral and Ground found in the NRG4? How to twist it?

I guess "Inside" above means the "Ground" conductor in 4 x 19awg?

"Outside" means 5 x 20awg for "Neutral" and "Live" respectively?

I guess my components are lousy, because after trying one Audioquest Thunder Power cord in my system, I purchased three Hurricane and two Tornado power cords. I had Wireworld Platinum and Silver Eclipse power cords,  had a home audition of Shunyata Sigma and Alpha power cords. I'm so thrilled with my Audioquest power cords. I say have a home audition of the Thunder Power cord and let your own ears decide.

I have tried braided geometries and they are much more beneficial when compared to a more standard cable geometries.

However, it gets more complicated as you delve further into the "science" of cables.

The best geometry I have tried/built is this Helix (i.e. spiral) geometry detailed on my web site...

It provides a very "black" background together with a very dynamic presentation with a well controlled and deeper bottom end.

Feedback from people that have tried them has been extremely positive - reports indicate they are beneficial regardless of the "quality" of the component they are attached to, but lower-end components will show a significant improvements e.g. are my own componetns...
- NAIM amp - improvements were subtle, but more refined - e.g. venue acoustics more evident and focussed
- Simmaudio Moon LP5.3RC phono state - improved top end clarity and precise image, improved attack
- Blusesound Node 2 - significant improvements across the board, i.e. dynamics, clarity, image, bass control

I use a 10 gauge version for amps and distribution and a 13 gauge version for components, but I am now thinking about a lighter 16 gauge version for digital components

Unfortunately this cable is a DIY solution and is yet to be produced commercially.

FYI: Anticables and Lessloss have both been producing braided cables for a few years and they have some very nice options

Other cables I believe would offer better perfformance than braided PC’s come from Nordost (expensive) and KLE Innovations (more resonably priced)

If your components are lousy it might help. Otherwise your component power supplies should do an excellent job of filtering out mains and EM noise from the AC power. A power supply (if any good) is already supposed to do what you are trying to do with a power cord.
