any powercord suggestions for a vk-75 and vk-30se or (BAT tube stuff in general)? thanks.

I've tried the electraglide fatboys, Shunyata Viper, Fim Gold, Kimber Palladian, and Trans Ref. I personally like the Fim, Kimber and Trans the best. I've also tried all the cords with-without a Cinepro 20. The Bat seems to like without the cinepro the best. Everything else loved the cinepro. Right now, I have the Kimber on the amp and the Trans Ref on the preamp. Fim was good, wish I had 2 of those to try out...

Forget using that IEC outlet it degrades the sound too much. Hope that helps :) Tim

Honestly, I cannot hear any difference from a 14 gauge stock cable. I suggest you save the money and apply it to other component instead. But if you want to try different cables yourself, make sure you can return them if you don't like them.
