AudioQuest Tornado High (Variable) Current Power Cable

Tornado is AudioQuest's High/Variable-Current AC power cable, optimized for components with demanding or variable current draw. It steps up from the Thunder with solid Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+) conductors throughout (rather than a Long-Grain Copper blend), paired with 6% silver RF drains, ZERO-Tech for uncompressed current transfer, and RF/ND-Tech to cancel induced RF noise, topped with AudioQuest's patented 72v Dielectric-Bias System (DBS) for further RF noise reduction. This product is made to order at AudioQuest headquarters in Irvine, CA, with custom lengths and terminations available — expect moderately delayed fulfillment. As an authorized AudioQuest dealer in Toronto, Canada, Vinyl Sound can help you order the right configuration for your components.

Key Features

• Solid conductors, preventing strand interaction (a major source of dynamic distortion)
• Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+), AudioQuest's highest-purity copper, minimizing grain-boundary distortion
• ZERO-Tech eliminates the electrostatic field between high and low signal conductors, enabling linear RF noise dissipation and uncompressed transients
• RF/ND-Tech minimizes circuit misbehavior by cancelling induced RF noise
• 72v Dielectric-Bias System (DBS), saturating and polarizing insulation for a clear, dynamic sound against a quiet background
• 6% silver-plating over the copper base metal to improve noise dissipation
• Direction-controlled internal conductors to reduce RF noise
• Hanging-silver over red and beryllium copper terminations
• Made to order, with custom lengths and terminations available

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

How does this compare to the Thunder?
Thunder uses a blend of solid Long-Grain Copper (LGC) and Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+) conductors. Tornado steps up to solid Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+) throughout, both sharing the same 6% silver RF drain, gauge, and ZERO-Tech/RF-ND-Tech/72v DBS technology.

How long does this take to arrive?
Tornado is made to order at AudioQuest's headquarters in Irvine, CA, so expect moderately delayed fulfillment compared to in-stock cables. Contact Vinyl Sound for current lead times or to request a custom length or termination.

Can I get a custom length or connector?
Yes, custom lengths and terminations are available — contact Vinyl Sound for details.
