Power cord replacement suggestions

If i were to delve into the fanatic behavior of replacing power cords, is there some concensus on where the most impact would be gained, whether on source, pre, or amp, or is it just different for every system and need to experiment. Thanks for any advice.

I also have a Mad Scientist power cord, it’s also good. Power cords like everything else is system dependent and results will vary along with personal tastes. There are several other power cords that I’m sure others will recommend.

I like the following in my system:

  • Porterhouse Audio 20 amp Porter Port (dedicated 20 amp line)
  • Wiremold power strip L10320 (have 2, especially before they doubled in price)
  • Volex power cables 17504 10 B1 (unshielded and great basic cables at $7.50 each)

Like everything else in this hobby it's an experiment.  I'd try some from a brand (or two or three) that sells direct with a good trial period.  Triode Wire Labs gets consistently good reviews and one I'd definitely try.  Best of luck.
