We can already say that the new Gigawatt PowerSync Ultra is the great sensation when it comes to powercords. The PowerSync Ultra sets new standards in its price range!

Overview : The new Gigawatt PowerSync Ultra powercord is the latest High End Line powercord from Gigawatt. A new copper formula, made from pure OFHC copper with even more copper as conductor. This new PowerSync Ultra cable moves quite far towards the Reference cables LS-1 Evo and LS-2 Evo. The PowerSync Ultra is completely shielded with aluminum foil and equipped with superior connectors. We have not seen better connectors in this price range. This very high-quality powercord is very suitable for many hi-fi and video components, and the Gigawatt power strips and power conditioners also perform excellently with this cable. We believe that the Gigawatt PowerSync Ultra is the absolute reference cable for powercords in its price range.

Specifications :

A Powercord consists of a few essential components :

The Conductor(s)

The Dielectric or the layer around the conductors

The Connectors on both sides

As additional features we also discuss, for example :
Shielding

Nano Crystal filters

Special features such as Filters, Boosters, Power purifiers, Voodoo and other stuff that sometimes works but cannot be explained.

Gigawatt uses only pure quality in their products. The difference between all Gigawatt cables lies in the choice of materials, the amount of conductive material, the damping properties and the shielding and possible use of Nano filters.

The Gigawatt PowerSync Ultra consists of 8 pieces of 1.6mm² cables, each made up of 7 individual strands. Gigawatt has chosen for the first time with the PowerSync Ultra to replace the solid core cables with 7 slightly smaller solid core cables. The PowerSync Ultra is therefore much more flexible than its predecessor. They are also the latest OHFC cables. OFHC stands for Oxygen Free High Conductivity 99.997% copper. The Gigawatt PowerSync Ultra powercord has 3 x Phase, 3 x Neutral 2 x Ground and 1 uninsulated tinned wire for contact with the shielding foil along the entire length of the cable. This ground wire is connected to the Schuko connector, but not to the IEC connector. This is to prevent ground loops. Each conductor has a cross-section of 4.8mm². The insulation of the PowerSync Ultra is made of Polyethylene and the vibration damping layer is made of PVC. The PowerSync Ultra powercord is completely shielded with aluminum foil. The 3 bundles are combined in a PVC insulation jacket for stability and vibration damping. The very low impedance of the cable makes the LC-3 Evo suitable for better High End audio and video installations. The connection plugs are completely new. The LC-3 MK3+ had the gold-plated connectors of the LC-2 MK3+. The new PowerSync Ultra features completely new Rhodium plated connectors with a machined aluminum housing. These new connectors, together with the new copper formula and geometry, create a completely new sound level with your equipment.

Listening : The Gigawatt PowerSync Ultra is a cable that is strongly reminiscent of the LS-1 Evo cable. The PowerSync Ultra sounds more refined, more powerful and especially faster and quieter than its predecessor and has a larger and better-defined 3D image. The dynamics are superb, and not just the fine dynamics, even large dynamic leaps are followed effortlessly. The bass reproduction is tighter, deeper, and better defined than before. The Gigawatt PowerSync Ultra is the ideal entry-level cable into the Reference High End Audio world, and the sound difference compared to standard included cables is enormous. The Gigawatt PowerSync Ultra powercord is, due to its overall very high quality, very suitable for all Reference Class High End Audio equipment, both sources and power amplifiers.
