Power cable Advice...

Hi - I am upgrading my PC's from the basic stock to something higher end. Working with a budget up to $1,500 per cable (used will get me bigger bang for the buck) for the following products:

- Pass Labs X250.5 Power Amp

- Atma-Sphere MP-3 Preamp

- Electrocompaniet EMC1

 

TIA. Joey

Update: Following countless hours of research, I made a few purchases on the used market all for < 5k

Power amp - AQ 1M HC Dragon

Preamp - AQ 1M HC Hurricane

Digital -    AQ 1M Source Hurricane

This was a great thread!

Hey squared80, did you just wake up from a 40 year coma?  The debate about cables making a difference was closed decades ago.  Get out and experience the world and then your comments might become more meaningful.  And watch out for the snake oil salesmen over on ASR.  That guy doesn’t know the difference between a tape measure and a slide rule.

My reasoning is as follows: If you have bad water passing thru rusty municipal pipes which is treated in the last 5 feet of your under sink filter system, is this going to improve your health?
