Synergistic element copper good for power amp?

I am looking for a pair of cable for my monoblocks.  Are the Synergistic research Element Copper good for that application?  I think usually people recommend a thicker cable for high current equipment like power amps, and the Element Copper doesn’t seem to be design for that purpose.  Does anyone use the Element Copper on power amps can comment on your experience?

I use a SR Element cable on my Classe amp. Nice improvement over stock and some of the other cables I have. I’m a big fan of SR’s stuff.

Very tight sounding and defined, if that makes any sense...

That particular cord is the copper version. I have a tungsten version on my cd player, but in my setup the copper won me over on my amp.

Ymmv, but I’m pretty happy all around. The tungsten sounds a little cleaner, but also adds a little brightness.

Another good option is GR Research’s upper end power cords. Big fan of those as well, though break in time is Horrendous on those.
