A note of skepticism. I have no doubt that power cords can positively/negatively effect the sonics of a medium to high resolution sound system, however, I suspect that it's a "hit or miss" proposition. Furthermore, similar to other cable products, the wide range in power cord prices has only a marginal correlation with the positive sonic attributes of the product. Eldragon (GREAT NAME!), you should contact Electraglide and ask them exactly what makes one cable more suitable for digital components than another. I'm not trying to discourage you, but there is much HYPE in this area. A listener could spend alot of time listening to their power cords -- is this really time well spent?
wow, a newbie power cord convert
When I got my Cary sli80 integrated last month, I just plugged my old power cord into it- the one that came with my cheap s.s. previous amp. I noticed that it used bigger wire, so I figured it would be better. Then a couple days ago I decided to try the new stock Cary cord. I put it in, and didn't really think about it. Yesterday I moved my speakers around a few inches here & there over the course of the day, and did some serious listening. I was amazed at the difference I was hearing. I had forgotten about the cord switch. I put the speakers back in their original spots, and still was hearing way more detail, and more solid placement of instruments. It was then I remembered the new cord, I guess it had been breaking in over a day & a half, (about 15-20 hrs of music). Anyway, I was a skeptic, and now I'm a believer. All this with just a stock cord from a good amp company. Makes me wonder if I can get even more good results if I spend a few more bucks...
