ECO 3 is a superb new product from Nordost. This product treats a problem long ignored in the hi-fi industry, that is, the build up of static charges on the surface of the loudspeaker, signal and power cables. These surface charges can interfere with the signal and introduce background noise into a hi-fi or home theater system. After treating your cables with ECO 3 you will notice music sounds more defined with any harshness removed. ECO 3 is a proprietary formula developed by Nordost that will work with any cable.

ECO 3 should be used when installing new cables and be applied about once every two weeks or more frequently depending upon the environment. ECO 3 is also very effective for treating Compact Discs. When applied to the label side of a CD you will notice a large improvement in sound quality, as stray electrical charges that build up on the discs are removed. Eliminating this noise at the source results in a much more detailed and musical performance.

“And get this: every time you spray another piece of gear, the sound jumps to great liveliness, life, and 'thereness', as in immediacy and presence. ...... Tell them HP sent you.”
