AudioQuest Firebird High (Variable) Current Power Cable
Firebird is AudioQuest's High/Variable-Current AC power cable, stepping up from the Hurricane High (Variable) Current with solid Perfect-Surface Silver (PSS) conductors combined with Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+), rather than Hurricane's all-copper conductor design. It uses 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)
- Carefully finessed combination of Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+) and extreme-purity Perfect-Surface Silver (PSS), 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
- Direction-controlled, solid Perfect-Surface Silver (PSS) shield conductors maximize RF noise drainage from line and neutral shields to ground via the third pin
- 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

Frequently Asked Questions
How does this compare to the Hurricane?
Hurricane uses solid Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+) conductors throughout with a 100% PSS RF drain. Firebird steps up to a combination of solid Perfect-Surface Silver (PSS) and PSC+ conductors, both sharing the same gauge and ZERO-Tech/RF-ND-Tech/72v DBS technology.
How long does this take to arrive?
Firebird 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.
