The Truth About Power Cords and there "Real" Price to Performance


This is a journey through real life experiences from you to everyone that cares to educate themselves. I must admit that I was not a believer in power cords and how they affect sound in your system. I from the camp that believed that the speaker provided 75% of the sound signature then your source then components but never the power cord. Until that magic day I along with another highly acclaimed AudioGoner who I will keep anatomist ran through a few cables in quite a few different systems and was "WOWED" at what I heard. That being said cable I know that I am not the only believer and that is why there are so many power cord/cable companies out there that range from $50 to 20-30 thousand dollars and above. So I like most of you have to scratch my head and ask where do I begin what brand and product and what should i really pay for it?

The purpose of this discussion to get some honest feed back on Price to Performance from you the end user to us here in the community.

Please fire away!

It is strange dynaquest4 how some people want to show their lack of knowledge. I guess I am just here to help them ..  probably would have been smart for them to find out how I spent a good part of my career. Oh well.

Why don’t you tell us about your "career"? Are you from the advertising end of the industry serving as a marketing, advertising, and promotional consultant that is what it sounds like simply linking to "authoritative" links will not establish you as knowledgeable, expert, or informed remember there are many experts here so if you do not want to have you’re feelings hurt again be careful how you explain "facts" and "science".

dynaquest4414 posts12-16-2019 2:07pmaudiozen: Talking or debating with clearthink is like talking politics with the other party. No one changes their mind but everybody ends up pissed off. Clearthink clearly thinks there is always only one answer...his. To debate with him (or Geoff) is pointless.


Pretty much nailed it dynaquest4.
Some people confuse ignorance with enlightenment. I wish it was not as common as it is.


Strange, the person who wrote this does not appear to have any issues with the command of the English language .... well unless they did not write it?

Again,with the kind permission of Bo, the group and the moderators kindly please allow me to expand a bit on TruFi, what it means for the world of music reproduction systems and how it will change the industry.

Kindly please remember that I am not not a spokesman for TruFi. I am a client of Bo’s and it has been proven to me and it has been proven to everyone that the world of music reproduction systems is shifting from one of widdley-tiddley voodoo to TruFi, which is recognized by all who hear it.

Bo does shootouts. Using properties identified under TruFi and measurement techniques, Bo can demonstrate a diversity in sound that no one else can deliver. He can do this because he alone has developed TruFi, the only means so far developed to allow music reproduction systems to show the true diversity of sound that only TruFi can deliver, so far.

Until now music reproduction systems have been built using information from paid for advertising and "reviews" and trial and error approach. This is why all music reproduction systems other than TruFi are 1D or 2D while TruFi systems are 3D. This has been proven many many times, so there’s no need to debate that here.
