Power cord


Looking at spending around $1500 2 m audioquest or Nordost

Start with a 20 amp dedicated CCT for your system. To add another name to the pile, I started with a $350.00 Nordost power cable, I have all WIreWorld power cables now. I did audition them in my house on my system. They work well with my gear.

+ 1 and many more. You realize that you’re picking the pockets of the mighty AudioQuest + others and taking the blowhard out of peoples sails. That aside I’m of the belief most of these cable posts are born just to further the controversy. At least once a month the same old same old. 

The OP posed a tricky question

1. There’s no information on what the cord is for - source component, preamp, amp, active speakers, power conditioner. Is the $1500 price range for a used cable or new

2. What brand/model component is it

3. What’s the system consist of

4. Preference for sound - warm, dark, bright?

Everyone will try to recommend what they like. Every system is different and even if someone has exactly the same component or even the exact same system, no two rooms sound alike. The way the question is posed it’s impossible to make even a remotely valid recommendation.

I’ve used 3 different AQ power cords and I don’t care for them. I also tried Furutech DPS 4.1 with NCF for connectors. I have all nordost power cables now. All this tells you is what I like in my system in my room. Means nothing to you.
