I use the Purist Audio Design Corvus power cords and speaker cables with my Pass X260.8’s. Yeah, I had to buy two power cords. The noise floor dropped noticeably with these cables. Sound is excellent. The two amps plug directly into an outlet on a dedicated circuit.
power cord for pass 250.8
Looking for a power cord for my Pass 250.8
Right now using cord that came with it. Could I do better?
For those with this amp which cord did you find most suitable.... My system is a bit on the laid back side so a somewhat more forward sound would be nice. Looking to pay up to $3,000.00 used.
Thanks for any suggestions.

+1 jpan. The Hurricane HC will damp your treble, I traded mine. SR Galileo SX might suit you better, has just a trace of that silver sound but still has a full sounding bass, and the SR cables come with tuning bullets that can be useful. I haven't heard dragon. I'm also intrigued by the RSX Beyond and guess it would have better macro dynamics than the others. |
@roxy1927 if you’re looking at the long term power cord, the aliexpress options aren’t it. You get what you pay for. If you’re expecting a $50 Nordost Tyr 2 killer, pinch yourself. |
I just have to say that my search for the right power cord went on for nearly a year. The problem I had was that most cords (high end) would ever so slightly attenuate the treble. The Hurricane did not… even a little. So, perhaps it depends on what you are comparing it with and your equipment. I am very certain it will not be attenuating anything with a Pass amp. |
