Power Cable for Wadia 860X


Can anyone recommend a great power cable for a Wadia 860x that won't break the bank?

The most knowledgeable person when it comes to Wadia players is Steve Huntley from Great Northern Sound. While there is always a "better", more expensive cable available, he recommended a PS Audio Lab Cable as one that does everything fairly well, not really drawing attention to any specific frequency range and not costing an arm and a leg. I personally use one on my Wadia 861 and I'm pleased with it. Others have recommended an Acoustic Zen Krakatoa and that works fine too! I don't know what you're looking to spend for another PC, but there are quite a few out there that aren't rediculously expensive and most will significantly improve the performance of your Wadia. Good luck in your search...
John,
I haven't tried the Mini Lab cable myself, but for $250-400 you should be able to get a Audio Lab. If you contact Steve, he's really the one that might be better able to help you.

Uli,
I heard that the King Cobra V2 is the best there is for a Wadia 861. You're probably right in saying that a unit as good as the 861 deserves as good a power cord as one can afford. I've just never could swallow spending as much on a pc, but I'll turn around and do just that for a pair of interconnects. I might just give one a try!
