Power Cable DIY - Please advise

@michelzay,

Greetings,
Thank you for your advise, could you please elaborate when you say "The connector side is very tricky on assembling" I assume it's specifically related to the NEP3200? Any idea how much it costs currently?

Have you used the new versions NEP-3001,2,3 MkIII? If yes, could you please give us your views.

I do agree that the IeGO seem like a solid company and their build quality looks very nice indeed, it could well be the "bang for the buck" I'm looking for... Only read good things about them..

Appreciate the heads up on Chinese companies posing as Germans and also the link to purchase iego plugs.

I just checked out the iego site..

They look very similar to sonar quest, which I’m currently using and find to be excellent connectors. So that’s another option.. I really like the silver plated copper in my rig.

I've no affiliation with them either.. Read about them on the inter web.

---I think Yarbo has nothing in common with anything German, but please do not hesitate to give a listen! It costs almost nothing and the conductors are FLAT OFC. The 23euro/m SP-7000PW has a double shield and also flat OFC conductors. In general an acceptable construction and a phenomenal performance, even if "German quality" is probably arbitrariness and perhaps a misleading marketing phrase.
---SR fuses ... you must have patience for 200h break-in.
---Gold plating for plugs has a refined sound and nice price. 8095 is a rarity among audiophiles cause of it's high price and although I like silver, the rhodium plating is not for me. Another reason may be that you can't find any fused silver inlet to match for an ideal contact.

"It's not about loss of money. The damage comes afterwards, when drives you to wrong direction for your next component, when trying to tailor all this mess for an acceptable meaning."

That is the most intelligent comment regarding this topic I have ever read/heard.

Best to you geoch,
Dave
