The story

Nordost says the Odin Gold Power Cord harnesses the full breadth of its technological advances. Seven 14 AWG conductors of 99.999999% oxygen-free copper, solid core and gold-plated, are each held in Dual Mono-Filament inside class 1.003 extruded FEP and individually shielded under TSC with gold-plated shields, for 100% coverage. DC resistance is 1.33 Ω per 1000 ft and the velocity of propagation 88%. The construction follows Odin 2; the plating of conductors, shields and connectors is what changes.

Both ends are Odin Gold HOLO:PLUG connectors, gold-plated and machined to Nordost's design, and Nordost's price list rates the cable itself for 32 A. The company describes the result as an imperceptible noise floor, which is the quality a reference power cord is bought for.

Choose a 15 A IEC C15, low-profile C15 or 20 A IEC C19 equipment end in the selector. Standard lengths are 1.25 m, 2.5 m and 5 m; 32 A powerCON, Walther and 30 A locking connectors and EU, UK and AUS wall plugs can be ordered. Odin Gold is built to order.

Key technologies

  • Gold-plated conductors and shields. Odin Gold plates the solid-core OFC conductors, the TSC shields and the HOLO:PLUG connectors in gold rather than silver.
  • Dual Mono-Filament. Two FEP filaments wound around each conductor hold it in a virtual air dielectric inside its extruded FEP tube, cutting insulation contact by about 85%.
  • TSC shielding. Nordost's Total Signal Control: each conductor is individually shielded for 100% coverage, a virtual solid shield against EMI, RFI and crosstalk.
  • Mechanically tuned. Conductor lay, spacing and length are set to Nordost's formula for the geometry.
  • Odin Gold HOLO:PLUG AC connectors. Gold-plated US NEMA wall plug and IEC C15 or C19; EU, UK, AUS and 32 A powerCON to order.
