Yeah, I tried removing the power strip. My system was very quiet but that was because I ran out of receptacles and couldn't plug the amp in.
Best power cable to component or to power strip?
I expect this has been discussed before but a search doesn't give me any useful threads.
If you are running a power cable from the wall to a power strip (PS Audio Juice Bar, in my case) and from there running cables to your amp, pre, phono stage, etc., would you put your best cord before or after the power strip? Or can you even generalize on something like this.
The question arises because I have a 2 meter run from wall to power strip and from there less than a meter to each of my components. This makes it hard to compare different cables in the wall to power strip position as I cannot just pop in one of my 1 meter cords. As I upgrade power cords, is it worth doing anything with the short runs without replacing the long run first? Thanks for any thoughts you have.
