Power Cords


I am looking for a new power cord (two meters long is sufficient). I would use it on a Adcom GFP-750 now and possibly move it to a Classe CA-201 amp later on if I get a second cord. I have heard a lot about the MIT Z Cord 2, some of the Synergistic research cords and all of the Powersnakes. I would definately buy used and am willing to spend up to $700 (though I wouldn't mind getting something less expensive). Thanks for your thoughts!

Read the feedback about the BMI EEL Reference power cords, right here at the power cable auctions.I have 2 less costly BMI Majik cords that bettered my Audioquest DIY cords with top connectors ! I also have 3 EEL cords and another on the way, that after burned in ,have opened up everything,deeper and tighter bass,smoother and more detailed mids and highs as well as an improved soundstage.I have more volume and have to turn down from my normal level,and this has all happened with my PS Audio PP-300 (which does an incredible job in its own right !) .Click on any BMI auction for feedback and company information.These modestly priced $650. cords out perform many more costly cords(there was a topic at Sound Advice with many posts that were all positive about BMI which included improvements over more costly cords,but a couple of clowns cased the topic to be removed) In auction they can usually be had at about 1/2 the price.Once the word gets out and some reviews are done ,the cords will sell at retail and auctions will be no more.Highly recommended !
Hi Pops,I noticed a nice difference on my pre amp and dac.I also detected an improvement on my McCormack DNA-1 Deluxe amp(overdue for the revision a upgrade and my P S Audio PP-300.I even have one coming for my transport as it sure can not hurt at these incredible auction prices.Happy listening.For those who do not wish to try or do not believe believe in power cord upgrades that is fine.There is the rare audio enthusiast that claim that he can not hear an improvement with power cord upgrades even with his high priced well matched reference gear.I would strongly suggest for him to take a hearing test as he is not capable of detecting what is truly going on.I have not found an audiophile who does not enjoy better power cords providing he has exceptional hearing and good listening focus and of course decent gear!I will not buy the 2 k cords unless I did not know what to do with my money,not even used at up to half off,unless I won lotto.I do not say they do not do what is claimed,it is just an extreme cost to me !Buying a popular lower cost used cord should be the next step for anyone still using stock cords.If there would be the remotest chance that you did not hear an improvement you can easily get your money back on a resale. Free your mind and embrace the music.
