component where PC does not make a difference


Has anyone ever had a component whose sound did not change significantly (or at all) with changes in power cords? I have found that different power cords don't really affect the sound of my amp (ARC VS60), but differences among those same power cords are revealed when hooking them to my DAC (ARC DAC7). Is that representative of tube amps in general or perhaps just this component? Would you expect that the differing "sonic traits" of various power cords would be better revealed on a DAC than a (tube) amp?

I think that some brands make more change than another brands instead if it is an integrated or preamp or a DAC. Equipmento with more improvement with power cord change that I tested: Accuphase and Sony. Minor changes: Marantz
Insignificant changes: Harman Kardon
