Budget Power Cords, which brand to choose?


I know budget means different things to different people, I am talking below $1000 new and $600 second hand. I also know they are very system dependent.

I use an Ayre QB9 DAC fed by a Mac Mini and NAS
TW Accustic Raven one/ortofon 309D/SPU synergy
Modwright 36.5 Pre
ARC Ref 75 Power
Daedalus DA-RMa speakers
Bybee stealth power supply

My power cables are Lessloss original and Sablon Audio and very good they are. There appears to be a number of new small companies getting good reports and reviews, particularly WyWires, Silnote and Triode Wire Labs. I already use Wywires Speaker cable and one XLR interconnect, so that may be the obvious choice. Any thoughts on these or other cheaper cables I haven't thought of? Thanks

zd542....I have an all Ayre/Vandersteen system, and can tell you the stock cords are only a bit better than no cords at all.

So, are you saying the stock Ayre cords are good or bad? Reading your post, it looks like it can go either way. I really don't care for PC's on my Ayre gear.
I know Triode Wire Labs has a special cord for digital sources and its fairly priced. I love my TWL cords, though i dont have the digitally specific version. There is something very natural and organic sounding about Petes cables Great guy too. Plus a 30 day audition policy!! So that way you will know!!

I hate to say this because it shows how much of an audiophile i can be, but, based upon all of the comments in this thread, i emailed Pete at TWL to get his comments on what would work best for my system. A week later i had 2 digital, 1 HC Digital, and 1 ten plus in hand and then in my system.

My rational mind tells me that power cords should not make much difference, all I can say is, "Wow"! My system is much more musical and Pete does not lie about the cords adding PRaT. Very satisfied customer.

David12, If you haven't made a decision yet, I have to agree with the others to give TWL a try.
I got my first Triode Wire Labs powercord several years ago and since then have replaced my PCs one by one until now every component in the chain is powered by a TWL cord. I have been in this hobby for over 30 years and have never heard cords that do what these do an any price, never mind at what Pete charges. The 7+ sounds great on my ARC VT-200, I would think it will be a worthwhile upgrade for you Ref 75.

Even so, I certainly wouldn't advise you to take my word for it. TWL has a 30 day audition policy, so there is nothing to lose.

You really owe it to yourself to give these cables a try.
