Power Cable for CDP

Hi all. For the last 2 years I’ve been using Oyaide Tunami 2 power cables on amps, CDP and power distributor. Anyone who knows these knows they they are an outstanding 10AWG OCC virgin copper cable. Sound can be best described as detailed, lush and FAT. Conceptually I get the need to feed a hi power amplifier with as much power as you can; usually only achievable with a heavy gauge power cable.

I’m considering using a lighter gauge cable (13AWG) for source and wondering if anyone has any experience in mixing cable gauges depending on equipment connected to the cable? Am I likely to get more speed, air, instrument separation etc?

Thanks

For what you’re looking for I’d recommend LavriCable power cords that are made from pure 5N silver and are an exceptional value IME

Agreed. If the goal is to achieve an open, airy, pure and transparent sonic presentation then the Lavricables are an excellent option to consider. They are very well constructed, non bulky and pretty flexible. Bottom line is that they sound natural (terrific tonality and timbre), clear and dynamic (Both macro and micro).

OP, Have you established a budget range? These are not cheap cables but are exceptionally reasonable for the product you receive.
