Power Cable DIY - Please advise

"It's not about loss of money. The damage comes afterwards, when drives you to wrong direction for your next component, when trying to tailor all this mess for an acceptable meaning."

That is the most intelligent comment regarding this topic I have ever read/heard.

Best to you geoch,

I have got good results using the Acrolink 7N-P4030 II cable from VH Audio for about $60 per foot with Furutech F1-28 connectors.

This cable goes down very low in the bass and provides good resolution.

I have runs for Neotech NES 5001, Mogami 3103, and recently Van Damme HIFI Series Studio Grade Speaker Cable 2 X 6.0mm that I rotate through my system.  Supra Classic speaker cable is excellent.  All audiophile-grade cables and quite inexpensive.  I have recently been terminating my speaker cables with AQ Suregrip 100 BFA connectors and they are excellent.  Dyson makes from very fine and inexpensive BFA speaker cable connectors that I will be trying soon. 

I have tried 10ga silver-coated copper cable and found it decidedly bright in my system, but evidently others like it.  Horses for courses... 

Per my post above, my apologies as I spoke about speaker cable.  So let me respond more cogently. I have a have dozen power cords and new heard a damn bit of difference between the lot of them. Until recently.  I got a Shunyata Venom 3 PC and, oh boy, the difference was clearly evident!  Much more detail to the sound and the increase in clarity was very noticeable.  It is one of the best tweaks I have found for $120 from Steve at The Cable Company.  Clear Day has an excellent PC for $100 as well, but I definitely prefer the Shunyata PC.
