Takshaka Power Shuko/C19
Best reliable power delivery for demanding audio visual setups.
This flagship power cable represents the pinnacle of audio cable engineering, building upon acclaimed series. It features a re-engineered design incorporating precious metals like 24k gold, pure red OFHC copper, and solid silver conductors. This construction significantly increases surface area and optimizes air dielectric for enhanced clarity, imaging, and musicality. The cable boasts triple-shielding with a "hanging ground" configuration, protecting the signal without introducing impedance issues. It is designed for universal application, powering amplifiers, conditioners, and other components with a single cable model.

Know before you buy
The Takshaka is designed as a universal power cable, meaning it performs equally well with high-current amplifiers, sensitive source components, and power conditioners. Its 20A rating and robust construction ensure it can handle the demands of any audio component in your system.
The hanging ground configuration provides triple-shielding against interference without creating the impedance issues often found in traditional grounded cables. This approach effectively isolates the signal path, resulting in a cleaner, more transparent soundstage.
The cable is cryogenically treated at -320°F to refine the crystalline structure of the conductors. This process improves overall conductivity and signal integrity, which helps the cable deliver greater clarity and musical detail.
The Takshaka features a Shuko plug and an IEC C19 connector, which is the standard for 20A components. While it is physically compatible with many power distribution blocks, please ensure your specific equipment requires a C19 input before purchasing.
By combining 24k gold, pure red OFHC copper, and solid silver, the cable leverages the unique conductivity strengths of each metal. This hybrid design optimizes the signal path to enhance imaging, tonal balance, and overall musicality.
Unlike standard power cords, the Takshaka uses a high-gauge, multi-metal conductor geometry and advanced shielding techniques. These features significantly reduce noise floor and impedance, allowing your components to operate with greater dynamic range and precision.
