A question for JC-1 owners...

Bob,

What about your powercords makes them synergize with the JC-1's?
What other amps/items do they work with best?
Does length make a difference (2 short runs to the amp or 6' or longer)
In the past I found Silver Power cables tended to make things brighter, how did you get around it or what is the purpose of using the silver?
Thanks,
Chris

Cytocycle, only thing in the SLVR cords is the silver in the connectors which are silver plated 688 brass. The cord does well on virtually anything allowing a quieter and more focussed presentation. The wire is tin plated OFC, not silver.........

If you have any doubts you can try the AA cord. Go to audioasylum and do a search on it. You can make them yourself. I used Marinco IEC's as they are much easier to work with. Personally I doubt if anybody can hear a difference, at least I'm sure I couldn't, between power cords but the AA cords have a good reputation, are easy to make, and cost little to try. I needed custom length cords so bought the Belden 19364 and Pass and Seymour plugs and the Marinco IEC's I got from Partsexpress. These will cost you forty something each to build. At minimum they are high quality cords, the Belded is nicely shielded. Also I think Mr. Crump is the one who came up with this diy recipe but don't hold me to it.

Warnerwh, yep I gave the DIY recipe cord to AA based upon a twenty-two year old design and think it is still better than 90% of the aftermarket cords out there.............

I know this is a fairly old thread but I thought I would update it anyway. I bought new Harmonic-Tech Pro AC-10 pc's for my JC-1's. At first I wasn't impressed, in fact, the bass really leaned out. But after 20-30 hours, things improved greatly. Detail, imaging, soundstaging and tight, taut, tuneful bass. I am extremly impressed with the improvements and enhancements these pc's made to my system. I want to also mention that they plug into two seperate dedicated 20amp circuits with Furutech FP-2G outlets.
