Do I need upgraded power cables?
Hello and Good Day
I'm wondering about power conditioners and power cords. Here's my equipment:
Cronus Magnum lll Integrated Tube Amp / Focal Aria 948 DW Speakers / Kimber Kable 8TC Speaker Cables / 2 SVS SB2000 Pro A Subwoofers with SVS Sound Path Subwoofer Cables / Grado Sonata Cartridge / Pro-Ject 2 Xperience SB DC Turntable using the included interconnects / Denon DCD 1700NE CD Player using Kimber Sliver Streak Interconnect / Panamax MR4300 Power Line conditioner and surge protection
Upgrade the Panamax? - is it providing anything besides surge protection? Upgrade the power cords for which component? Or do nothing? Maybe my components aren't audiophile enough to justify purchasing upgraded power cords.
Any advise or recommendations would be appreciated.
Thank you
Bill

@bzawa take a look at this link It talks about what elements of cable design can improve performance. Cable are the heart of my system and improves every aspect of audio system performance. I've applied cables to systems ranging in price from $300 to $70k and in all cases significant improvements were achieved. The link also identifies a couple of brands that use advanced design techniques and materials Good luck with your quest, steve |
I appreciate the advice to try taking a DIY approach to power cables. The task only requires stripping three wires, inserting them into the connectors and screwing down the wires. You can decide whether you want any fancy jacketing. The sense of control in the design lets you get maximum value for your investment and get better quality wire and components. It's sweat equity. |
Panamax horrible they restrict current many have mov’s depending on your budget power cables 1000 % make your system better idf decent , Audio Quest depending on budget the Niagra 1200 a very good Bank for the Buck ,Perrotta Consulting audio I get much there great service and pricing i did a Big upgrade brings the system up a solid 10% increase across the board the Niagra 3000 is pretty good the 5000 much better still I should have but the bullit and bought it now I have to trade it in to get it I like the Tornado cables very much I use theI AQ source for preamp and streamer dac and thunder for the 3000 line conditioner and power amp I will upgrade them also , you can hear the resolution improvements ,breakin too takes over 100 hours , in Audio it never stops for myself never enough $$ monies.,Give me another $60k then maybe just maybe i might be satisfied !! |
