Best power Cords for DAC
We all have read that, for example, the Anaconda VX and Elrod EPS 2 are prefered for CDPs and the Anaconda VX Alpha and Elrod EPS 3 are prefered for amps (I am clear on the distintion between the "EPS", "EPS Sig." and "EPS Statement".) The question I have is- in a well balanced high resolution system with an Anaconda VX feeding the Meitner modded Phillips transport- which family and version of the above cords would be best for Meitner DAC 6 ? In the past, I've found that the power cord you put on your DAC generally has less influence on the DAC than the cord you put on your transport. I'm looking for a "tad" more smoothness on top. As a card carrying Audiofool I've been indoctrinated into always gravitating to the higher priced components, usually because they DO sound better. In the case of a cord for the DAC, might a Elrod EPS 2 or 3 (Non Signiture) or a previous generation Shunyata (King Cobra 1 or 2) actually be a BETTER cord for this application than the current, much more expensive, flagship cords ?
