Heavy power cord


I purchased a signal power cord... with it plugged into my SVS sub woofer  there's definitely a difference...
I can't seem to keep it plugged in due to its weight...any suggestion?

If you have your amp up on an iso stand you MUST suspend, prop up, or otherwise eliminate any forces the power cord may exert on the iso device as external forces ruin the isolation effectiveness. The amp must be free to move in all directions of isolation even if the iso stand is one direction 🔛🔝

Yes put blu tak wedged in between  and a put book, foam or whatever of = height  to keep cable from sagging.
if power cable is mostly (or completely) in the air then you need a longer power cord, which will keep majority of its weight on the floor.


This is one of the easiest things to test. Simply listen with everything laying on the floor. Then listen with everything propped up off the floor. Literally anything that will hold them up will do. Paper or plastic cups, pieces of wood or plastic, books, carbon fiber, string. Anything. Just try it. Trying and hearing beats guessing and spreading false information, but only by about a million times. In my opinion.

Do this enough with enough different materials, raising to different heights, it pretty quickly becomes apparent the improvement is probably related to electrical charges of some kind. Because of all the materials and shapes and everything the ones that work the best are ceramic insulators, with the insulators with the greatest resistance to static migration working best of all.

This is what is called doing due diligence. As opposed to blindly following along. If you DYODD well enough it may extend to looking up different ceramic insulators in electric parts catalogs and learning they actually have standards by which these things are measured in terms of being able to resist kilovolts of charges migrating along the surface. Sorry but its been a while and I forget some of this. So don't just take my word for it, DYODD. Maybe even compare like I did enough to actually know for sure what you're talking about. For a change.

Funny enough, while playing music for a friend just the other night I removed the insulators letting the speaker cables lay on the floor. Then put them back again. All while the music was playing. He noticed right away. As has everyone I ever did this for. Its not a subtle difference, not at all. Only reason I can think of everyone doesn't know this, they feel better spreading false information than actually trying and finding out for themselves.

Go figure.
