We love debating many topics here:
- power cords
- interconnects
- vinyl vs digital
- tube vs solid state
If interested, one can simply conduct an experiment and observe the results for themselves. I speculate that some will hear benefits and others won't. If you do not hear any difference, sleep well with the knowledge that you have first hand experience and saved some money. If you hear a difference, sleep well knowing that when you purchase a new power cord, you have first hand knowledge of the benefits. In either case, why care about what someone else says? You have your own experience to move beyond the bickering.
Personally, I have difficulty when I do not understand why something works. I did my own experiment with a power cord and observed substantial benefits in dynamics and LF response. But darn it, I don't understand why the cord makes a difference!
