Power cable Advice...


Hi - I am upgrading my PC's from the basic stock to something higher end. Working with a budget up to $1,500 per cable (used will get me bigger bang for the buck) for the following products:

- Pass Labs X250.5 Power Amp

- Atma-Sphere MP-3 Preamp

- Electrocompaniet EMC1

 

TIA. Joey

If you're going to change your cables whether it's interconnects or power cords or speaker wire you should get OCC single crystal wire which is far superior to anything OFC at any price, and you're in the right price range for single crystal wire, some of the companies to look at are Acoustic Zen and harmonic technology  Zafvino and Neotech especially, they make OCC single crystal wire for all the other companies.

mclinnguy,

No don't own any shares I just know what's the best cable and audio quest is definitely not as good as anything OCC single crystal and what's even better is the rectangular OCC single crystal wire, even better than the round, neotech has two flagship products called the Amazon which is the rectangular silver OCC wire and the Sahara which is the rectangular OCC copper wire, I have the Sahara and it just blew away my round OCC wire from harmonic technology, It's not cheap though, The silver rectangular wire was put up against an $18,000 wire and it beat it by one of the retailers in Quebec, but the silver wire at 9,000 US for 2 m speaker wire is definitely not cheap, The copper wire is half price.
