Is it all in my head??

So I bought a Kimber Power Kord...  yeah, yeah, but it looks prettier than stock, is well built, and having built all my cables myself I appreciated the craftsmanship.

...so, I'm playing an Everest LP--symphony stuff.. and it always sounded noisy and muffled (which is why i decided to give it a spin).  The power cable is plugged into my furman conditioner, and all the other cables are the same.  I swear this LP sounds more "untangled" now (that's the best way i can describe it).

I am an engineer and know intellectually this makes zero sense--is it some confirmation bias?  How can it be.. i didnt buy it expecting a sonic impact, i bought it because i couldn't make one that looks as cool (think of it as a necklace for my rig).  But I swear I think i hear a difference...  tell me it's all in my head.

+1 mrdecibel. It is nice to hears the sincere comments from ones like you and elizebeth and others. Not letting the other negative comments be responded to, because it changes the focus on the fine exchange of good thoughts. Just ignore the negative posts, as it always takes the discussion in a different direction.
And for the OP. Yes it is all in our head That’s where we perceive things, in our head. So it’s ok if there is no technical reason for what you hear. There are qualified individuals that say we cannot measure everything we hear. Just enjoy it. And thanks for sharing your thoughts.
