Have you been surprised by power cable changes? s
markgwYes, I'd totally agree with this.  A lot of it is about transients and the quick draw on the power that is needed at the bass end.  The straw analogy was good; wire gauge I think is vitally important for the equipment to perform at its best.

rodman99999Great post! 
Power Cable ~ $300 - Which to get? Nordost, Audioquest, Furutech, Shunyata, Zavfino?
Thanks orenstein for the extra info about Luna cables.  I have used some of the 1940s Western Electric wire in waxed silk/ cotton and it is very good.

Let's talk power cords
@yping - perhaps you could explain what this means. It is from your link: How the KLEI AC power cables support effective supply...1.The live and neutral conductors have been designed, in accordance with the Eichmann Ratio architecture,which acts t...

But orenstein it would be good to know what wire Luna use in their cables.  They say it is tin-plated copper but don't give much further description than that.  DH Labs have full disclosure on the power cables they produce.  I have no association ...

alexb76 - yes, you can do that and shouldn't have any problems.  There is no soldering in power cords and the wires should be clamped in the sockets in the plugs.  It is not difficult to do this but you should check whether it is legal to change p...

It's likely that a Ping cousin will be along shortly telling you about an expensive to buy (but cheap to make) SY industrial cable from his favourite audiophile company.  But moving along, I've found that DH Labs PowerPlus is good value for money....

Yes, this was a shameless ad.  
Manufacturers pushing their products and agenda in the forums.
hicham that is an excellent example of a manufacturer being upfront and honest, and willing to provide information in an open forum about the products they make.  That is a good thing. Not the same as manufacturers pretending to be a customer and ... 
I'd like to upgrade my speaker wire
I agree with @Whoopycat, the Duelund 16GA wire is a great step-up from just about any standard multi-strand wires on the market. You can buy the wire and twist it yourself for the runs you need.  If you need more power then the Duelund 12GA is als... 
Manufacturers pushing their products and agenda in the forums.
I've heard there is an Australian manufacturer who posts on many forums pretending to be a customer of the products he produces.  Constantly asks question about "how good are these products?" "Or can you tell me if these products are any good" and... 
KLE Innovations Silver HarmonyRCA's - not silver eh?
I hear at Taiwan HiFi show that some big local sellers are not happy that the KLEI Pure Harmony and Absolute Harmony RCAs are not solid silver, as they believed.  One poster before, he asks why would KLEI deceive customers.  I do not know.  But pe... 
KLE Innovations Silver HarmonyRCA's - not silver eh?
Sorry, I think my last post sounded too harsh when I said: "not my problem".  I mean I could do nothing to resolve the issue of bad advertising by KLEI. Sorry.   
KLE Innovations Silver HarmonyRCA's - not silver eh?
@yping  But I see original advertising through wayback machine link.  Maybe KLEI make mistake,  maybe not.  But if mistake then a very silly one.  And even if mistake then still very misleading for all customers.  Still misleading advertising even...
