Audioquest Storm Series power cables


I have been reading about Audioquest storm series here at Agon since they were released unfortunately they are so expensive and never bother to take them seriously. I like their mid price ic and speakers cables especially their old model.This past weekend Music Direct has warehouse sales demo and returns, I spoke to the rep ask for a good deal for three pc 2 hurricane High current 1 meter , one 2 m tornado high current pc.Bless to have a good deal. Hurricane went to my Plinius amp, one hurricane pc  connected to my Ruby sacd player, tornado pc connected to my power conditioner, Indeed the musical impact did to both system is amazing , I will try to update after 50 hrs.

You say you've done AB testing.

If you've done it properly, single or double blind, then @ghdprentice is being unfair to you.  I suspect a tiny percentage of AG members have done that.

And yet it's the only way of verifying that any changed perception of sound is not imagination.  Any other listening results are totally invalid.  Although they might give the listener a nice (& expensive) feeling.

Try not to worry about 'having' to spend $$$$ on six feet of power cable.

It just conducts electricity and can make no difference to the sound.

Obviously the guys selling it will say it does

Once they say it, then the 'emperor's new clothes' syndrome invades right-thinking people's minds.

If you listen to them and think the sound is better, that is just expectation bias and the wish not to fail to hear what everyone else says they can.  FOBLO shall we say - fear of being left out.

I don't doubt cables in the signal path can and to make differences to what we hear.

I draw the line at 6 feet of passive mains cable at the end of the 10 miles or whatever of cable joining your system to the power station.  If the 6 foot of cable makes a difference, why not the 10 miles?

I think this is imagined rather than heard.  But each to his own.

If to you, you can be transported to 'another world' for a mere $6000, surely you would just spend out and be thankful.
