Description
SUPRA LoRad 3x2.5 MkII
LoRad means LOw RADiation and the design of these cables minimises both electrical and magnetic fields. LoRad protects both from fields radiating from the cable as well as pick-up of surrounding noise fields, e.g. wireless and mobile phones, radio broadcasts, etc. LoRad MkII is a development of the Lorad concept, now with improved shielding properties, flexibility, bend-resistance and strength.
- LoRad stands for Low Radiation of electric and magnetic alternating fields
- The screen protects your equipment from radiated mains noise and from RF oick-up.
- Short pitch twisting of the cores cancels the magnetic alternating fields.
- This will result in a cleaner sound and more accurate transients.
The radiation is lowered by means of two techniques. First the shield minimises the alternating electrical fields from the cable. It also minimises the RF pick-up (Radio Frequency). The magnetic fields are cancelled by twisting the conductors in a short pitch.
The benefits are cleaner sound, pronounced transients and an improved 3D soundstage. We also hear customers describe more detailed sound and we are not surprised. If your equipment is installed using SUPRA cables, the noise floor is generally suppressed by several dB, allowing more of the content to be revealed. Low radiating cables is also increasingly important from a health point of view. Science has proven that alternating magnetic fields affects cell growth.
The biggest differences between LoRad MkII and the old LoRad cable, is that it is now based on SUPRA’s unique Nylon screen concept. Semiconducting Nylon Screen provides improved shielding properties, bending strength, environmental immunity, higher tensile strength and less microphonic effect. The Nylon screen is connected with a drain-wire. We have tested and evaluated all known types of screens for making such a good cable as possible. SUPRA’s semi-conductive Nylon screen was the only one that passed the safety requirements and, moreover, its shielding properties was best in test. LoRad MkII is tested and certified by Intertek Sweden, meeting the European safety regulation HD21.5 S3.
The cable must be connected to a wall socket with a ground terminal for the full LoRad effect.

Functionality
Power and network cables are used to connect audio-video equipment to the mains, power strips, and power conditioners. Many manufacturers of strips and conditioners recommend the use of high-quality cables dedicated to the device.
By the meter – power cords to be terminated with plugs or sockets
IEC (C13, C14) – mostly used in receivers, stereo amplifiers, home theater, computers, monitors. They are available in the form of a plug to ICE socket extension cord or IEC socket to schuko power plug.
Figure of eight (C7, C8) – Symmetrical connector often used in a CD/DVD/Blu-ray etc.
Cloverleaf (C5, C6) – used in laptops power supplies, small projectors
Specifications

Shielding:
Shielding is something like a barrier to electromagnetic interference. If the guide has more layers of shielding or the shielding is thicker, it's better. Source: RMS.pl |

About brand
Supra is the brand name of Jenving Technology - a Swedish company founded over 30 years ago by a young former Ericsson engineer called Tommy Jenving. Since then, many new and innovative products have been designed and manufactured by Jenving, including:
- Classic 4mm speaker cable - one of the very first dedicated audio cables designed solely for use as a loudspeaker cable - most people used lighting flex before this.....!
- Ply - low inductance speaker cables
- Swift - an easy to use XLR connector
- Rondo - a bi-wire speaker cable
- LoRad - a flexible, shielded mains cable
- Sword - a zero inductance speaker cable
Supra products are distributed around the world and across all fields where cables are required - in domestic, marine, automotive, industrial, medical and military sectors.
Indeed, Supra products are in use in many places outside the typical "home" environment, such as in hospitals, theme parks, trucks and aeroplanes.
