What do you think of this power cord?


Maze Audio is a family-owned company that states it hand-makes its cables in the US.  There is a range of prices for power cables, but I was looking at this entry cable.  I don’t see any mention of the metal used in the cables, but I don’t know if that is as crucial for power cables as for interconnects.  I am interested in your opinions.  Thanks.

Bob, I see the unenlightened out in full force telling you that power cables are a waste of money and to go eat ice cream!

Power cables do make a difference and although I have not heard them, Audio Envy get great reviews. Consider a used cable to get something better for the same price. If you can DIY then that's best value of all. I have Oyaide Black Mamba V2 which is stunning and feel it can compete with some big $$$ cables.

If you shop around you can find cheaper than this.


I bought a 3M piece and cut in half to make 2 cables. I used different IEC plugs on the amplifier end and found that they sounded different. So using the same piece of cable I got different results. Not only do the cables sound different, so do the connectors.

Anybody telling you otherwise has either not tried a good cable, has a poorly resolving system, as in bad or has substandard hearing.

@cakyol, which category do you fit?
