Power cord upgrade

OP: +1 System synergy. I have Transparent Audio cabling from the wall to the TA power conditioners. Then Synergistic Research cabling to the components. Adding an upper-tier digital SR power cord to the streamer was a ’wow’ moment.  Ask if your local SR dealer has a trial period.

I will admit it . . . I am a Shunyata fanboy.  I have all Shunyata Alpha v2 power cords, and they are fantastic.  I also use Shunyata Sigma v1 speaker cables, a Sigma power cord for my Shunyata Everest.  The Venom, while a decent power cable, is on the low end of the Shunyata line, and by moving up the ladder, you get more of the good things that the cable can do.  Although most of my power cable upgrades (from other cables, not stock) were subtle but noticeable improvements, the improvement over stock on my ARC REF 6 was not subtle at all.  And the most surprising improvement was putting in the Everest with the Sigma cable.  It is odd to say it, but everything that I wanted in my system snapped into place, especially the depth of soundstage.  It was a startling improvement and I recommend trying one, and moving up the Shunyata line.

The debate as to whether power cords have an audible impact on the audio output of sound systems has been going on for years.  There is an excellent article written by Kurt Denke (Blue Jeans Cables)

on this subject in Audioholics dated April 29, 2011.  As far as the power cables that are in the middle to high end audio that equipment manufacturers use, I tend to trust their engineering.  By that I mean would they risk degrading the performance of their brand by opting to install a poor-quality cable to supply power to their equipment?  I know that my response does not answer your query, but as with many aspects of our hobby/passion power cord "upgrades" is a subjective one.  In the end purchase whatever satisfies your desires because life is short.

That depends on the Tornado model,  if you used the HC I can see that just too big for the application , I spoke with AQ engineers the geometries are different for the far less demanding Source products like Dac Streamers ,DDC Reclockers ,preamps , this is why they developed the Source Tornado. The Engineers offered this information without me asking them .they took the time to explain ,myself a technical person appreciated this. Perrotta Consultants has a Special pricing on these .
