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


Hi everyone,
I am interested in having my own customized Audioquest power cable build based of their new power line Storm series, which can be found here:

https://www.audioquest.com/ac-power/ac-power-cables/storm-series

The reason being the new line is out of my budget AND I am very interested in how a tailor made Audioquest applied with my own ideas will sound.

The idea:

• Use Audioquest NRG 4 cable, which can be bought in bulk: https://www.audioquest.com/ac-power/ac-power-cables/3-pole/nrg-4

• Dissecting the NRG 4 cable into three different wire parts: neutral, live, earth.

• Add multiple layers of shieldings per wire part: carbon fibre, copper braided sleeve, carbon fibre sleeve.

• Twist the three shielded wire parts in a geometry as the new Audioquest cable above, also have a look at:

http://anticables.com/power-cords#!/Level-3-Reference-Series-Power-Cords/p/14644872/category=3461168

These great performers also use the same triple twisted design.

There must be something good going on with this geometry? That is why I want to apply it.

• Finally add, Oyaide plugs at each end (046, 079 or 004) and fill it with special crystal mineral against vibration, EMI, RFI, see: http://sablonaudio.com/index.php/power

First of all, would the geometry and design help you guys think?

Would it be worthwhile to try?

I can get Audioquest nrg4 relatively cheap. It has to be Audioquest wiring for me.

of the Storm series cables was being demonstrated at a few select
dealerships two years ago. One of those I believe was Audio Connection
in New Jersey.

Yes, I was there.  Richard, Alex Brinkman, Johnny, Garth and I stayed after everyone left and auditioned for a while.  I was begging Garth to get me a couple of prototypes, lmao.  I waited a long time for them to come out, lol.  

You just took me by surprise when you spoke about the speaker cables. I was sworn to secrecy when told about them.  Please don't take my post any other way.  I've been waiting on Richard to get the amps to market and then Garth's new cables as I think they will be crazy good and affordable (well a few will be, lol).  It's a very exciting time for AQ as they have hired the right people.
In my limited one week's experience, there's only one challenge when using the Storm Series - the stiffness of the cable will be a real problem for a lot of setups.  So this makes me wonder if anyone's found a 90 degree connector that doesn't degrade the performance of these cables?  I guess one could spend another $100 on the Furutech - anyone tried that?  I've already found the weight and torque of the cable has loosened my duplex wall socket, which I'll need to tighten at the weekend.
You might try suspending the stiff power cords from the ceiling with fishing line and eye hooks. Thus, relieving strain on both ends. I’m not a big fan of adaptors.

Adaptors will most probably degrade the SQ.  Furetech makes a cool stand/holder for heavy connectors.  They have carbon in them and allegedly help SQ even more.  That's hard to believe, but these holders are wroth it if you are having problems.  

As for duplex outlets, are you using an audiophile one or even a $25 medical grade one?  If so, you won't have that problem.
