DIY AC Cable advice


I would like to make some power cords for a DAC and CD Player/ Transport. I currently use Elrod signature cables and was curious if there was a DIY cable that has an Elrod type of sound? Budget would be in the $500.00 price range.

Thanks,
Scott

I have built a cord using Acrolink 7 nines copper and Oyaide C-004 and P-004 connectors which I think sounds outstanding on my W4S Dac 2 DSD. Very dynamic, smooth, and detailed all at the same time. It replaced several 'trys', some of which were actually pretty decent, including a Tek-Line PC12?, TG-Audio HSRi, Pangea 14SE, and a few others. I think Acrolink's 7N is a significant step forward from the 6N wire from only a year or two ago. And whatever they are doing with the 'stress free' manufacturing and the new dielectrics must be contributing as well. Very refined sound.
