I concur with Pls1, in my system, the P300 made a much bigger improvement than power cords alone. My "two cents" are that each component has its own "character" and AC current requirements. I found, with some experimentation, that logic applies (mostly)in that the heavier gauge AC cords work better with high current Amps, tube gear, etc. So I guess to answer, IMO its not necessary to use cable from the same manufacturer any more than you would buy all the same components in your system from the same company. And these cables ARE "components", aren't they? For what its worth, the two biggest improvements in my system recently, were the addition of (2)PS Audio "Lab Cables". One for my Classe CA301, and one for my P300. Unbeleivable improvements for both. Live long & prosper.
Power Cords, Should they all be from the
My system consists of four dedicated 20 amp ac outlets, PSAudio P300, Black Mamba on CD player, Sidewinders feeding Bel Canto Evo digital amp and P300. Should all the power cords be from the same manufacturer in one's system? Anyone with a similar set-up? Any recommendations such as upgrading the pc feeding the P300?
