Incorporated on the PK14 and PK10, the
WATTGATE™ 320i IEC and 5266i US wall plug
both use unique Perma-Lock™ terminals and
stainless hardware to provide tight and secure
connections. In addition, heavy duty contacts
or wipers provide optimal contact pressure
and/or surface area.

The WATTGATE™™ 350i and 350i Ag IEC connectors
as well as the WATTGATE™™ 330i and 330i Ag U.S.
wall plugs are the finest power connectors avail-
able. These Audio Grade® connectors are
installed on the following cables; PK14 GOLD,
PK14 Ag, PK10 GOLD, PK10 Ag, PK14 Palladian and
the PK10 Palladian. The 350i and 330i
WATTGATE™™ connectors utilize stainless steel
hardware and Permalock™ terminals as well as
heavy duty contacts with a special three layer
plating process.
The three layer plated process is as follows:
11.. Oxygen Free Copper plating - improves
adhesion and conductivity.
22.. Electroless Nickel plating - necessary to
prevent the leeching of the copper
through the gold layer.
33.. 24k Gold or Pure Silver plating - improves
conductivity and prevents corrosion.

A true technological performance breakthrough.
The unprecedented Palladian™ PowerKords™
employ a unique SWR standing wave ratio
enhancement technology that dampens musically
destructive electrical standing wave reflections.
The sound quality simply must be experienced.
