| Power cords: Kimber Kable Palladium @maxima95 jasonbourne52 = formerly roberjerman (4319 posts) His modus operandi is to be the first to pounce on a power cord thread. Kind of weird to do it non-stop for 6 years. | |
| Power Cable Break In - Such a Change! mrskeptic Second of all, when he says simply bending a wire changes it’s properties and therefore changes how your speakers will sound, he loses all credibility with me. Bending creates stress that distorts the properties of a material. T... | |
