Synergistic Research Euphoria HC power cord.


Anyone have any thoughts on this power cord?  I would be using on McIntosh  611’s.

Yes, I have thought, related to one of my Audio Axioms:

the more hyperbolic the name of a component, the more skeptical one should be, especially of relative value

That is a good rule of thumb. My generalization is if it is in the name, then it is not. Like “Honest John’s”, guaranteed to not be. My partner and I constantly scan for these things and mostly seem correct.

Power cords can be system/grid dependent. That same combo could get different results in NYC than in the Catskill Mountains as an example. You just have to try for yourself.

Jason at the Cable Company is recommending these cables, but am not at all familiar with them.  I had read good things about Audioquest cables,  but he said the SR’s give a “livelier” sound.
