Where is great audio going? - Headphones and Mid-Cost
High-end manufacturers and retailers have the same increased costs in health care, housing, daycare, college tuition, autos and food as the rest of us, so they have had to increase prices on products that are, for us, a luxury hobby.  Phones with ...

As the noise floor drops using PPT products, the extended reverberation time and the hall-like ambience is mind blowing. Some like the as-is sound of a padded studio room--I’m not sure where artificial begins and realism ends---have to accept the ...

Yes, this thread has remained civil because we insist that it does.  The PPT products not only provide breakthrough improvements--the creators of PPT are here, interacting with us to provide support, advice and great service.  PPT represents all t...

Yeah, you picked the wrong thread to have some fun on, Elizabeth. Per your own thread, it really IS time to just quit.....at least, here.

Fabulous results, kedoades.  I agree--all the RFI that was a source of edginess or glare in my system has been attenuated.  The sound has been made smooth and relaxed by Total Contact and Omega mats, and the increase in clarity and information ret...

Even though this thread has veered wildly from the original question, the evidence for the validity of using high-quality AC cords is overwhelming.  That ARC's most longstanding employee, who listens to every piece that leaves the factory--includi... 
Why Power Cables Affect Sound
Thank you, Kaarmstrong, for your real-world findings. Others would do well to listen and learn from you. That’s a good way to advance one's system development. As for you, xyobgyn, just forget trying to understand ARC’s position on and use of qual... 
Why Power Cables Affect Sound
xyobgyn,  Man, you are so ridiculously off base, I can hardly bring myself to respond.  Where did you come up with an idea of people getting into trouble or being fired?  I cite the ARC manual for my Reference 210 amps, mention a respected cable b... 
Why Power Cables Affect Sound
xyobgyn, Regarding my reference from the ARC amplifier manual:  Not only do they recommend using the best interconnects and speaker cables, but they also use and endorse better AC cords.  From Warren Gehl, Chief Listener at ARC, as written on the ... 
Why Power Cables Affect Sound
xyobgyn, Yes, the situation is much as you say;  we can bring all this expensive gear into our homes, plug it into the wall, and not always be overwhelmed by great sound.  It will be good--could be made better. AC power is often noisy and the typi... 
Why Power Cables Affect Sound
Yes, xyobgyn, and then I asked that you read my subsequent posts on what ARC is doing with aftermarket AC cords in their factory listening room!  ARC completes that quote about interconnections with real-world use of AC cords to voice their design...
