Absolute Power Cord

They are what they are... an excellent $50 power cord. Certainly they are better than the stock cords that are shipped with most equipment, but they are not the "Holy Grail".

For lower priced power cables, I would recommend the Jena Labs Power Cable and if you have the money, another recommendation would be the Shunyata Python.

jtwrace: i'm afraid i must equivocate on your second query by noting that there are simply too many choices to know what will work best on any particular component in your unique system, which a fortiori comprises, in part, your listening room. your first question, tho, may confidently be answered "yes." -cfb

The wire is oxygen free copper; the cable has been carefully designed and engineered to perform and at the same time be cost effective. Chesky Records bought something like 30 sets for their recording studio...

For $50 I'm sure you'll find some use for it in your system. It will enable comparison when some Voodoo dealer tries to sell you 'magic'. I have three sets.
