Moved Audio Quest cable to my DAC. WOW

I just moved my Audio Quest power cable to my DAC and noticed a more realistic open and better detail. 

I have always been skeptical due to my electrical engineering bbackground.my wife also noticed a better sound. 

The cable never really made any difference on my JC5 amplifier but maybe as someone else pointed out,  power cords make a bigger difference on up front equipment with less sophisticated power supplies. 

Ordered a linear power supply conversion for my streamer.  Will see what that does.

What power cord did you put on your amp?

My experience is that power cords make more difference on the amp.  It could be that the power cord you put on your amp is what made the improvement.  Audioquest makes many power cables that are not heavy enough for an amp.  A generic heavy power cord will outperform an expensive lighter gauge power cord on an amp.
