@jaymark I have posted many times concerning the immense superiority of GroverHuffman power cables for a reasonable price. My neighbor with a $350-500K system was an electrical engineer who had high end cabling EXCEPT for power cables which he believed (wrongly) that they don't matter. He had six Pangea power cables in his system. I just didn't want to hear his system. It had weird bass with notes going in and out of the frequency range like strings would be missing on a bass. Distant sounding and dry. I lent him a older GH Empress power cable for one amp. Instantly better sounding. He purchased six replacement GH Pharoahs and I can enjoy music at his home (he also substituted 6H6/6N6 tubes for 6H30s in this AR LS-28). He has a very nice sounding system now.
Worth upgrading my cables?
I’ve made a ton of updates to my system over the last six months and now I’m wondering if my cables need some attention. Here are my questions:
- Based on my system, and current caballing (description bellow), do you think I would recognize a noticeable improvement by updating my cables?
- If yes, which cables would you prioritize (speaker, interconnects, power)?
- Lastly do you have any specific recommendations.
Current system:
- Technics SL-1200G (Hana SL) --> Manley Chinook --> Manley Jumbo Shrimp --> Finale Audio Classic 300B monoblocks --> Klipsch Heresy IV
- All interconnects are Morrow Audio MA1
- Speaker cable Canare 4S11 Star Quad Bi Wire
- Power cables Tripp Lite Heavy Duty , 15A, 14AWG
Thanks for your thoughts!

@wester17 I agree. GroverHuffman cables come with either a 30 or 60 day money back guarantee. He can't produce them fast enough, so his one return in years was immediately resold. His speaker cables are exquisite for the price and power cables are a necessity. |
