Do I need higher quality power cords?


  • I have an expensive Isotek Orion Power line Conditioner connected with an Isotek Elite Power cord. It has plug-ins for five power cords. Considering this, would I further benefit from higher quality power cords for my components other than the stock ones that came with them?

@shadorne,@roberjerman, I always find it interesting when those folks who cannot hear differences in power cords ( as well as some other upgrades / tweaks ), claim these sonic differences do not / cannot exist, and then talk about voodoo or meditation. Upgrading the power cord of a piece of equipment is not necessary ( it is not necessary to upgrade tubes either ). But we do it to reveal greater musical involvement with our systems. In each of your cases, one of three things are occurring : 1 = The system is not up to the resolution level in which it can be heard ( including the room acoustics ). 2 = You have not tried any. 3 = You are deaf ( or just have weak hearing / inexperienced hearing ). Oh, I am sorry. There is a 4th. You guys may have joined the troll bandwagon. Nothing you could say will convince me ( and others ) it is our imaginations. I am sorry for my bluntness. Enjoy ! MrD.
Wow, inadequate power supplies in my equipment. Shadorne, have you, or have you not, tried a different cord on any of your components ? You must have the only equipment who's power supplies are not woefully inadequate. @spotcheckbilly, thank you for coming to the party. 10 posts. I am quite sure your numbers will be in the hundreds in no time. Enjoy ! MrD. FWIW, this is always fun.
@geoffkait that is just the tip of the iceberg. Besides, shadorne must know something so many manufacturers have missed in their designs. And he has a follower.
