Know before you buy
This cable is specifically optimized for source components and pre-amplifiers. Its design focuses on delivering clean, stable power to sensitive electronics where resolution and soundstage depth are critical.
The Alpha Process is a cryogenic and demagnetization treatment that reduces internal stress and magnetism within the copper. This results in improved conductivity and a lower noise floor, which helps reveal finer details in your music.
Yes, the cable features a flexible dark blue PVC sheath that is designed for easy routing. Despite its 14.3mm overall diameter, it remains manageable for most home audio setups.
Yes, Douglas Connection offers customizable length options for this cable. This allows you to avoid excess cable clutter while ensuring a perfect fit between your power conditioner or wall outlet and your component.
The Alpha 14 OCC cable is rated for a maximum amperage of 15.0 A. It is well-suited for standard audio components, though it is primarily intended for source and pre-amp applications rather than high-draw power amplifiers.
Yes, the cable includes a braided shield made of 0.12mm Alpha conductor wire. This shielding helps protect your audio signal from external electromagnetic interference and radio frequency noise.
