- Maze Audio -Hand Crafted Sound The Maze Audio Ref3 braided power cable fits between our conventionally designed power cables and our top of the line Ref4 braided power cables. The Ref3 power cables will get you into the world of braided power cables without spending a lot of money. The single ground conductor of the Ref3 will not provide the extraordinary shielding of the two ground conductors in the Ref4, but it's still much better performance than unbraided cable.These power cords start with 12 AWG gauge, copper wire. Each conductor of the Ref3 is wrapped in premium grade TechFlex jacketing for an high end appearance and long service life. Each cable is hand braided before being mated to the audiophile power plugs. The Ref3 is built with very high quality Oyaide-style plugs. They feature solid copper contacts for perfect power transfer. Connectors are critically important in a power cable. You can feel the quality of these plugs as you slip them into the outlet. The Maze Audio Ref3 power cord will give your components a quiet noise floor.These cables are very flexible. Look at some of the pictures for evidence of their flexibility. Many of our customers use our braided cables for all of their components. We personally use them for our tube amps, solid state amps, preamps, receivers and source components.Our cables are designed for both stunning sound and impeccable beauty. Let’s face it, looks count.
