When you see for digital or high current, digital is meant for use with CD players or a dac. High current are for power amps or high power integrated amps. In most cases a 10 gauge power cable should work fine for both digital and a modest powered amp, 100/150 watts. Does it state anywhere on the cord what gauge it is?
Power cord type
Ten years ago I bought a power cord fabricated by a small audio dealer who is no longer in business. Cosmetically, it looks very high end. I'm currently using it on my pre and it excels over the stock cord. But I've noticed that cords today are either "analog" or "digital". I have no idea what I have and whether it's suitable amperage wise for use with an amp. Should I even care what component I use it with?
