Power cord upgrade


I want to upgrade power cords for my streamer, Aurender A15 which currently has a Shunyata v14 digital.

And Puritan 156 which has the classic cord it comes with.

I believe in system synergy, so I am leaning towards Transparent, and/or Audioquest.

I have ARC ref5se with the Transparent Reference, and ref75se with the AQ Hurricane.

Guess my thought is the streamer and 156 PC are maybe a bottleneck. Won't know without trying, right? I am satisfied with the over all sound now, so looking for more of it. Make any sense??

You'll never know what has the perfect "synergy" without trying every power cable available (but none make an objective difference). Happy hunting.

get a power cord that has OCC single crystal wire in it, OCC single crystal wire is far superior to anything OFC on the market and any price, OFC is the cheapest wire made it has 500 crystal barriers per foot which are little fractures in the wire I can't believe companies like transparent charge $70,000 for that cheap crap.

I got a synergistic research power cell and euphoria cables.  But the biggest difference will be plugging your DAC into a portable power station like the ecoflow delta 3. That will give you far more bang for the buck.

Although suggestions and recommendations form others are always welcome and sometime very helpful, at the end of the day, they aren't worth a hill of beans when it comes to you finding the right cable that will synergize with your particular streamer best to your liking.  As already mentioned, trail and error is the only way.  All you can do is to bring in as many power cables for auditioning in your system as possible, and hope for the best.  Eventually, you'll find the perfect cable.  Happy listening.   

I appreciate everyone’s input, and at the end of the day I know it’s all about what sounds best in my system.

And yeah, trying every cord that’s out there would be nice.

Certain brands come up more frequently, such as AQ and Transparent, and I like that for a good starting platform.
