Power cord length

"The two meter definitely sounds better. While they are clearly the same power cord the 2 meter is a bit quieter. Definitely worth the money."

@ghdprentice  I can't believe you are saying this.  Gotta be a piss (miss)take.  Like, I have tested all lengths from 1.75001m to 1.9999m.  And I really love the 1.7836m cord.  Way better than 0.002m longer or shorter.  Make sure you get it right, down to the fifth decimal point.

OMIGOD.  Another power cord fetish.  Please help us.

Don't forget.  Before the power arrives in your outlet it has come 10 miles or more from the power station.  On all sorts of rubbish wire corroded like hell after 40 years in the ground, but big gauge for sure.

Just connect your stuff with a cord that can handle the amps being drawn.  To save your pocket book just make it regular 12 gauge cord.

END OF STORY.

@clearthinker you need help. No really. Happy Valentines Day. 😘

Hello Wrighton!  Don't let anybody fool you. It's your home and your property. Measure carefully add an inch or two for safety (just in case you OOOPS), get out your screw drivers and wire cutters and shorten it so it fits better for you. Observe how they prepared the wires for connection to the plug and do it the same way. If one end looks easier to change, change that end. Don't Wory, Be Happy.

Bigger gauge for longer runs is about the only thing that makes sense to me. I can see about keeping speaker wires the same length but power cords!?! As to the 2m length being better than 1m I am at a total loss for words.

my question is why does Nordost offer standard lengths of 1, 1.5, 2 and 3m if less than 2 is 'out of spec'?

I just got a Zavfino FINA 1m PC for my DAC - it was a custom order, same price as 2m - happy camper here.
