Power cord..CDP or AMPLIFIER?

A power cord that works well on a CD player may not necessarily work as well on an amp as another brand.

When I first tried power cords in 2000 or so, I borrowed a Cardas Golden and it was fabulous on an Arcam Alpha 9, but made little difference on an Arcam Alpha 10 integrated. On the other hand, a TG Audio power cord (from the late Bob Crump) gave the integrated a huge shot in the arm - way more dynamics.

Riley...Well,just my humble cambridge audio amplifier and Music hall cd player.maybe my budjet will around 100bucks..and it seems possible huge development,compare to my ordinary cable that i used ryt now.

Metralla,thanks for the info.

For a hundred bucks you can build two nice DIY cables.They would be a step up from the stock cords just as a store bought one in that price range would be.You would have the satisfaction of knowing that you built the cable.Don't expect head turning results at that price level though.Just a thought.Good luck.

Music Direct has Shunyata Diamondback Platinum power cords on sale for 50% off, $125 instead of $250. And if you dont like it just return it. They are great about returns. I just picked up 2 of them to compare to my PS Audio power cords.
