Power cable education needed


Hi everyone. I need some education on power cables. I have been reading that a good power cable is vital to a good sounding system. If that is true wouldn’t the companies the make the components include a good power cable to insure their product sounds the best that it can ? Should I evaluate the power cables in all of the components in my system?

Wiring is like a chain. The chain is as good as its weakest link. Since all your house is wired with a Romex cable of appropriate size (typically 15 - 20 amps), adding a much stronger link into the middle of it does NOT make it any better.


The wiring in most residential construction is solid wire which has less resistance than the stranded wire that is used for power cords.
So this guy measured an audiophile power cord that cost $20 on Amazon, why not test something like shunyata's lowest line power cord?
