Power Cords/ Conditioner/Surge Protectors

Does Nelson Pass supply his $$$$ amplifier with fancy cables? Nope. Just a thought.

I have owned Moon equipment. Definitely high end audio cords will definitely improve the sound. It is very likely that a power conditioner will help as well. There are occasional instances of power conditioning has not helped... but they are really infrequent. Alway has made a big difference to my. 

On your SIM gear, I recommend warm sounding power cords and interconnects. Thinking Cardas may be the best for you. Simm is not warm at all, and can benefit from Cardas. If you want budget DHLabs, but I really thing you want warm.  

For power conditioning I recommend Shunyata and Isotek. As close to top of the line as you can. It will impact all your components except the amp (direct into the wall).

If you can two direct lines will add a very cost effective improvement. One for the power conditioner and components, one for the amp. 

Shunyata power cords are good, but in the high end ones not the inexpensive ones. 

This video from Shunyata explains why the "last six feet can’t mater" argument is wrong. The question comes up at about 9 minutes and 30 seconds in. 

@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 will not affect the performance of components. There is nothing wrong with the AC from your wall outlet that requires a power conditioner. 

Good surge suppression is a MUST for expensive high-end equipment. Even a power conditioner can tremendously help some systems. I just replaced my stock power cable on my Puritan Audio PSM-156 with a new Shunyata - Theta XC Power Cable ($1000 cable) and honestly, I can’t even tell the difference. To be fair I have not done any long-term listening and obviously comparisons between cables with A/B method would be hard since my power conditioner feeds all my components. My short-term memory isn’t great. Also, I have pretty good equipment, but my system may not be resolving enough to hear a difference. My speakers are my weak point by far and after my AXPONA trip this week I’m hoping to come back with a huge speaker upgrade. Lucky for me I bought this cable from Music Direct who has a 60 day return policy. The stock cable on my power conditioner wasn’t a standard cheap black cable either. Buy cables from a place that has a good return policy and will allow you to try them.

I was in the process of writing a snarky answer to this repetitive question, when I realized, no one is making me read posts that have no interest for me.  So I deleted it.  Talk amongst yourselves.
