Power cable Advice...
@audphile1  Great post.   
Transparent Audio is anything but Transparent
@classicrockfan so why persecute those who can and do have better systems and income?    
Power cable Advice...
The cable denier sleeper cells have been woke. 🤣 @classicrockfan guess if you have junk gear you can feed it with junk cables.  My reasoning is as follows: If you have a two way rural road which turns into a shiny super highway on the last mile... 
Yes, cables do make a difference -- regardless of price...
@classicrockfan actually not if they were then all the high-end manufacturers would be using the junk you buy on Amazon, Ali-Express at the audio shows to demo their equipment.  But alas I am yet to hear anyone using  Audiocrast, Viborg, Monosaudi...

I think any of the GaN equipped integrateds (not many) or amplifiers from Atma-Sphere, AGD, GATO (integrated also) Gold Note will fit this bill. Some of the NAD integrated may but I am suspect of their build quality.  @secretguy Audio is subjectiv... 
Knockoffs- how can they just advertise so easily?
@carlsbad2 You can substantiate this claim?  As most of the product in question is supposed to be of US origin as marked on the packaging and product.  Many of these "counterfeits" are made in the same factories as the originals.   a company ord...
