@singere There are a host of threads on your questions that you can peruse.In the end unless you try cords conditioners erc and decide for yourself you really won't know if they do or don't matter with your equipment and your ears/hearing. Having other people make the decision for you I expect is not what you're really after
Power Cords/ Conditioner/Surge Protectors
Do I need to add power cords/conditioner/surge protector to my system or is it product dependent.
My current system consists of:
- Moon 390 network player
- Moon 761 amplifier
- Sonus Faber Sonetta V speakers
Should I use the stock power cords on the Moon equipment or look at new power cords? If new cords should be purchased let's hear some recommendations. Will the power cords change anything sonically?
Should I also add power conditioner/surge protector to the equipment? Again, does it change anything sonically? If recommended do you look at Shunyata, Panamax etc.
Thanks for your input/recommendations.

@mikhailark Virtually none do which doesn't prove anything one way or the other |

"So are they deliberately degrading quality of their expensive gear OR they are actually good engineers and know their stuff? No, what a strange thought." Who said anything about the designers/engineers degrading the power supplies etc in their gear? I didn't. What I said and what I will again is that just because they supply generic power cords doesn't prove one way or the other that there will or won't be SQ benefits by using "upgraded" power cords, or power conditioners. . Now, you may be someone who sees/hears no value in them, that's fine. I do, but not all that I've tried have made an impact while with others it's quite apparent that they do in my systems. Unless one establishes that for oneself the rest is meaningless. Enjoy listening as best suits you
