Thoughts on high current power cables for amplifiers Audioquest Dragon vs Isotek EVO3 Ascension.  

It seems like a lot of people praise the Dragon

OP,

 

I am really sorry for all those unhelpful posts by @jasonbourne71. That is his thing.

 

I only own an Audio Quest Hurricane for my amp. After working through many other power cords it just completely hit the right (neutral) tonal balance and low noise floor. I compared with quite a few other PCs.

But I have not tried a Dragoon or Isotec. Given the chatter from folks that have gotten Dragons, this would be my first choice. But at this level, you should be able to try and compare.

The biggest change in sound quality to my current system has been amp power cords. I switched among Cardas Clear Beyond, Cardas Clear Reflection, Transparent Ultra, WireWorld 7, DHLabs, the ARC stock cord, and the Audio Research heavy duty stock cord (10 gauge?). Each after market cord had strengths and weaknesses, that kept me from committing. Then the AQ Hurricane… no weaknesses… more detail, lower noise floor and no attenuation of treble. Perfect. It took a few minutes to be sure. Not subtle.
