What is the best power cord for pass labs xa100.5?

I have the XA30.5 amp and heard minimal improvement with using a Pangea AC-9 on it. I tried others as well, also minimal improvement. I tried an Audience Powerchord "E" version and heard a significant improvement, which really surprised me.

BPT was better than others w/ my INT-30A.

One thing Nelson HAS to do is keep from getting sued so he supplies a UL approved pc and it's a good one. I'm not surprised you found it better than the ones you bought on ebay.

As to the best....that's up to you to find out. For my 100.5's and 30.5, I am using DH Labs Power Plus (ballpark $300). It's not in my DNA to spend more than a few hundred on a pc.

I also tried Liz's Pangea 9's on the XA.5's with no complaints. You mentioned "punching power". Those are 7 gauge compared to the 14 you are using now. Might give you more punch.

I have used Tekline Reference on my Pass amps, always liked it better than the Pass cord.

BRF, Why the extra foot? More bass slam or smoother highs?
