The new power 1SE features power 1 Classic's proprietary 12 gauge cable design featuring spiral-wrapped Aluminum Mylar shielding, a 3-Conductor cable array, and a tinned copper drain wire. To push the envelope of this high performance cable into another league, performance wise, our hot-rod "SE" version of the p1 includes a robust plug upgrade to one of the finest Hi-End plug sets on the audiophile marketplace today, the Rhodium plated Furutech FI-28(R), along with a little cosmetic dress-up.

A good power cable makes a very noticeable improvement in your system's performance.  A great power cable’s overall effect can be jaw-dropping.

I know you have heard this all before, but here it is again. I recently purchased a pair of Power 1 SE power cords. Let me say I was one of those audio guys somewhat skeptical of power cord claims. Well no more, installed on my integrated and CD player the difference was on a par with an electronics upgrade!! To say I am extremely happy with the result would be a gross understatement! My mid-fi system has never sounded better. Many thanks for a superb product.

6Moons.com's Glen Wagenknecht says: "But at the end of the day it begged the question - did the Audio Art Power 1-SE cable actually make a difference? I would prefer to tell you that it did not or that the effects were minimal. Alas the theory proved far too accurate in practice and the audible effects indicated power supply starvation on a level I had not imagined. The midrange exploded with authority and detail. Leading-edge textures were made clear. Dynamics gained in both power and ease. There was a richness of information blossoming as the system discovered new-found detail and a more accurate presentation on spatial information, ambience recovery and hall acoustic cues.  There was not one parameter left untouched.  The system became less overt, more incidental and cohesive without losing any of its previous strengths. Consider me a convert here. These results indicate the need for a radical rethink of finance allotment for cable purchases. Consider the power cable a major power supply upgrade or modification. The benefits are that great."
 
*The Furutech Floating Field Damper System
The Floating Field Damper completely solves the biggest problem you never realized you had by star grounding the metal parts in which floating magnetic fields are created by current flow through the connector. A precisely engineered, sprung metal bridge ties the various parts together and shunts the potential to ground, significantly reducing distortion for ultra clean and stable power transfer.

Specially Engineered Pressure Plate and Cable Clamp
Furutech engineers have calculated that the increase in contact area is precisely 17.142%! Our specially designed secure metal cable clamp relieves strain on wire bundles of all sizes.

Furutech Pure Transmission Philosophy
Meticulous build quality is a large part of the engineering equation. Furutech Pure Transmission technology turns a macro lens on every element of power and signal transfer applying optimized engineering solutions to well-known problems such as contact resistance, EMI and RFI rejection, grounding, and using the best materials and processes available.
