Audience Front Row AUS-IEC Reference Power Cable
The extreme performance of the frontRow powerChord AC cable pushes the envelope to an all new level, surprisingly extending the boundaries of your audio component’s ability to retrieve natural low level information, and providing a new depth into your music with life-like accuracy that will satisfy the most discerning ear. Even the highest (current on demand) components, such as Megawatt Mono Block Amplifiers, will excel in all parameters by the effective gauge and geometry of frontRow powerChords, while delicate passages are whispered into layer upon layer of refined musical depth, bringing all the realness of the recorded venue into your living environment.
With the introduction of MORRE technologies into the frontRow powerChord, all areas of musical performance are inherently and definitively improved. MORRE (Musically Optimized Reduction of Resistive Energy) is the umbrella name under which all of the current proven Audience technologies lie and is critical to the unparalleled achievement of the frontRow powerChord. MORRE is inclusive of materials, connectors , geometries, as well as pre/post production processes/procedures and everything else found in the frontRow powerChord that makes it unequalled in competitive audio products. MORRE is a game changer.
frontRow Rise Above the Noise
The frontRow powerChord’s individual internal conductors are comprised of our all new, modified 99.9999% pure Continuous Cast Copper, 38 strand, 6 bundle, 14 gauge wires. Configured to frontRow specifications, these wires are combined and laid out in a specific geometry and spacing, providing the least amount of magnetic inductance and interaction between hot neutral and ground conductors. Each OCC conductor is covered in Pure Virgin Cross-linked polyethylene, with an excellent stable dielectric constant over all frequencies, and an unmatched natural quality when combined with OCC conductors in audio applications.
All frontRow powerChord OCC conductors terminate to the new Audience Rhodium plated copper wall plugs and 15 amp or 20 amp IECs. These special termination connectors insure the highest quality and most secure connections from the AC source to your components, and provide the highest signal transfer for both voltage and current. All new frontRow powerChord grounding OFC shielding shunts unwanted noise and distortion caused by RF and EMI efficiently away from signal conductors to provide uncompressed ultra quiet backgrounds.
At the end of the day, when you turn on your system, and you want to go where it takes you, make sure you are in the frontRow.

Audio Cinema Em Casa,Jorge Gonçalves – Oct ’24
“Was really Very interesting to have the frontRows in my system. Showing existing qualities and others never heard before. Follow our strongest recommendation with an excellent cost x performance”.
Positive Feedback, Bruce Kinch – Aug ’24
“The audience for high performance audio is extensive and varied, but whatever one’s system construction or listening preferences, the Hidden Treasure Ethernet and frontRow USB cables are most highly recommended, individually or together. I’ve recently taken to describing my soundstage as Sonic Cinemascope. Take your seat and enjoy the show.”
Positive Feedback, John Acton – June ’24
“There was a complete absence of listening fatigue; indeed, with the incredible insight into music performances afforded by the frontRows, I was compelled to pull out recording after recording.”
“Can the addition of a power cord be life changing? Yes, when that power cord is the Audience frontRow. It’s that good.”
Positive Feedback, John Acton – Nov’23
Positive Feedback, Marshall Nack – Issue 124 Dec ’22
“With the frontRow digital cables in place, I glanced over at Lynn and knew something was up by her unwavering attention. I understood because I shared it. “
The Absolute Sound, Neil Gader – Aug ’22
“Effortlessly musical and truthful, frontRow seems like the culmination of a journey that Audience embarked upon a long time ago.”
Audio Acessory, Yutaka Suzuki- Aug ’21
“Sharp and high contrast..” “The sound stage is wide and transparent..” “The president’s way of thinking is thorough..” “Direct and stoic sound..”

Positive Feedback, Marshall Nack – Feb ’21
“The frontRow suite achieves the implicit goal of every serious high-end review—fidelity to the source. It is uncanny how they make the footprint of electrical devices almost undetectable, bringing you closer to the source. To a very large extent the frontRow speaker cables and interconnects step aside. (The powerChords do it, too, but have more color and personality.) The frontRow suite completely satisfies the primary Golden Rule.”
Positive Feedback, Marshall Nack – Jan ’21
“It is with unabashed delight to report the Audience frontRow interconnect met the requirements for uniqueness and beauty.”
the audio analyst, Greg Weaver – Jan ’21
“… the most authentic, relaxed, yet musically detailed and resolving to ever bear the Audience badge”.
