I have the DH Labs Red Wave power cable on my amp. It's the biggest single improvement I've ever experienced, I was amazed.
Which of these power cords ?
I'm looking to upgrade my sound with upgraded power cords. Given I've got a tube preamp, 2 mono block tube amps, Aurender DAC and 2 Martin Logan speakers - we're talking up to 7 power cords so I'd like to keep the total cost for all of them to $1000ish.
And some suggest going with one brand, to get the biggest benefit.
Brands on short list include:

fleschler976 posts01-15-2020 5:42pmbuilder3 I found many of DH Labs top cables very expensive. For instance https://www.amazon.com/DH-Diety-Speaker-cables-connectors/dp/B00VS04002?ref_=ast_bbp_dp 1/pr DH Labs Diety Speaker cables Spade connectors in 12 feet for $7,900 or https://www.amazon.com/DH-Revelation-SP-speaker-cables-stereo/dp/B00VS45XY0?ref_=ast_bbp_dp 1/pr DH Labs Revelation-SP speaker cables stereo w spade ends in 8 ft for $3,850 (and very expensive for bi-wire and longer lengths). Apparently, DH Labs has multiple levels of cost and quality cabling. Most of their offerings are under $1,000 and very inexpensive for their lowest lines. My remarks were limited to power cords, since that's what the OP asked about. |
