How do you think this AC power will be?

Good to hear. I based my purchase upon you Helix design information as it mentions those products but without getting into any kind of DIY. DH Labs has a sale going on now on must of their bulk wire. So I jump on it. I just didn’t want to build anything just yet. I’m still one of those guys that have not heard a difference in power cables but I haven’t given many a try. So I don’t have much to compare them to.

Thanks for that. 

So you’re saying you can buy just the 10 gauge mil spec wire I read of the 12 gauge and braid it to achieve some great results also without going into the full helix power cable, is this correct?

Let me rephrase that question,

in your very first post you mention taking just the 10 or 12 gauge mil spec wire and simply just braiding it to achieve some very good results, correct?

Great. 

I have ave already ordered and I’m just waiting on the Sonar Quest end plugs. I ordered directly from the main site and have not gotten any information about shipping or anything. 

I order there here and probably paid more than ones on eBay or wherever but I was afraid to buy some knock offs. 

Just giving some updates as to my power cable build. 

I finally received my Sonar Quest end plugs. I made both of my amp power cables susing the DH Labs Red Wave 10guage cable and although it’s a very nicely made cable I like the bulkiness of the cable however I do not like how much stress I got to be on the inside of the end plugs. 

I almost fell its it’s to much wire. The other power wires I made are perfectly fine with how they fit and sit while plugged in. 

I haven’t had had much time to listen to my system since the cable change but I can’t say that it sounds better/worse but I doesn’t hurt to have the power cables or at least decent ones. I’ve rad that I may notice some improvements to equipment that doesn’t have larger more capable power supplies so that’s why I’m still going to make the one for my Bluesound Node 2 which is a different end plug than the IEC. 

This is is why I may just end up making willywonkas helix design.

I'm putting together my order for making your Helix power cables instead of using my DH Labs stuff. I have one question:

If I'm wanting to make two of them for my mono block power amps in 10 Gauge, should I just replace the live wire you have mentioned in your instruction site to 10 gauge? If you feel this is not necessary and I should just use the 12 gauge mil spec wire for everything then I will. 

@willywonka

Yes, I thought that was the way.

Im going to be making two 10 gauge cables for my mono blocks and two 12 gauge ones for my preamp and Bluesound Node 2.

Do you think it’s to big of a power cable for the preamp or the Bluesound?

Thank you sir!
