.......I had owned the following Accuphase amps ; the P-6100 and also the P-7100 and then went to their pure class A amp the the A -75. I first started out with the Cardas Clear Beyond and then to the Cardas Clear Beyond XL power cords. The Cardas power cords all worked well to my ears and were sweet and warm and detailed but not the final word on being truly detailed. I had them in place for about 6-7 years. However, when I bought the A-75 I knew I needed something a little more coherent and with more slam as the amp was a class A as I had noted. I now have the Shunyata Omega QR on that amp and it is getting the juice it needed and that baby now sings. Note : Shunayta has a new upper line of power cords so the Omega's QR's may be found at a really good price. Just my two cents .....
Power Cord for Accuphase Amplifier
I have a new Accuphase P-4600 amplifier and am looking for a power cord to replace the stock. So far I’ve tried the Cullen Crossfire and the IceAge OFC Frankencable. While both cables have worked well on my source components they have not performed better than the stock on the amplifier. So to those who have Accuphase amplifiers what power cable has worked for you?
As I mentioned in other threads Accuphase strongly recommends that you use only the stock cord and so far that has been the best. The. other two have resulted in a darker sound with less soundscape openness.
I’ve been trying to stay under $500 for the cord but would be willing to go a little higher if it improves the amps performance.
