TV power cords; Money well spent, or money wasted?


Hi Folks,

First, A happy, healthy, and abundant New Years to all (where abundant = any tangible, or intangible, that you either need, or desire).

I just purchased a new Sony Z5100 TV:
Bravia 3 engine (whatever that is)
240hz refresh
10 bit panel
TV is networked
Sony N460 Blu-ray

Shunyata SR-Z1 outlet-->Audience au24 "e" pc-->PS Audio Quintet.

My questions: Would it be qualitatively beneficial to upgrade from the TV's stock pc? If yes, have you any suggestions for an appropriately priced pc for the setup that I currently have.

As always, any and all input is appreciated.

If it is a removable PC I can't think either how it could possibly do any damage or how they would know you had used it if it did. This would seem to be in the same area as using upgraded ICs or HDMIs. If you have one sitting around try it and see if you can tell the difference. I have improved my TV picture considerably by upgrading HDMIs and using conditioners. I don't use them on my music system but it has dedicated lines and my video doesn't. If you haven't moved up to something like a Monoprice HDMI do so now. There are better ones but for the money and the improvement over stock ones they are a give away. My memory is that I tried one of my better PCs on my TV and it didn't fit, the TV plug was recessed. My VPI SDS has the same problem.
