Budget High Current Power Cords


Bang for buck, what are the best high-current power cords for power amps/sub amps? Seems an obvious question but I haven't found it in the AG archives.

No one was debating here a question was asked and we answered.Your post looks as if you are looking for a fight.

So what is wrong with wanting a power cord that is better constructed?
I know some make claims of better sound imaging and bla bla bla.
I have replaced the power chord on every device (TV or Audio) in our home for a higher quality after market solution that is moderately priced (under $200.00) and for sensitive equipment (susceptible to external EMI, Noise) with double shielded PC.

That is our choice but to call people idiots for buying the BS?
Not buying the BS just want better than lamp shade wire for my $15K speakers and $7500 Integrated.

You want to use cheap minimum spec OE cable and lamp cable that is fine go for it, just don’t call us suckers and idiots.

You made some friends with that post.

If it can carry enough power to the device, it is adequate, and using a more expensive cable isn’t going to make a damn bit of difference. Sorry, but all of you are just bullshiting yourselves. There been many blind test done, and nobody can tell the difference, and I’m sure none of you are any different. Perception is reality. By the way, I can afford any cable for any component that’s available. So it’s not a case of Envy with me, it’s just a case of understanding how electronics and electricity works . It’s for that reason that well-regarded companies like McIntosh don’t really believe in expensive cables. They sell them because they can make money on them but if you talk to the people in charge there, they too think it’s a farce.

I have several Cullen cables and Patrick is a great guy to work with and very accommodating.
