I have found the lower price Transparent and older Audience to be good value power cords
Can upgraded power cords help my setup?
I have some KEF LS50 Wireless speakers and decided to use them with a Bluesound Node 2 via a Lifatec optical cable. Can I see a significant and worthy improvement if I swap out my power cords for something like Pangea cords? Do I need the AC 9SE MKII on the speakers or will the AC 14SE MKII be good for each speaker and also the Node 2 (C7?)? Power cords seem to be the only place left for me to tweak the most out of my setup.
Thanks for any input.

@justubes2.... I find your comment about PC's with switching power supplies interesting, Not really something I had considered. I've been on the fence for quite a few months, as to whether or not I should upgrade my PC's? My main reason for considering this is that the IEC connector on my somewhat high end DAC/Pre, does not make a snug connection. I'm a firm believer that any positive improvements made by PC's, are solely based on the quality of the connection, gauge and shielding, nothing more. My amp does have a switching power supply, so I'll will have to look into this more. |
@asahitoro - the Node-2 responds very well to good cables - IC's and PC's. I used a C7 figure-8 adapter, but eliminating the adapter and installing a Figure-8 plug proved to be much better - I bought a figure-8 plug on the web Some very good PC's are made by KLE Innovatons - contact them to see which ones would be best for your system Otherwise - Signal Cables are very good value It really depends on your budget? regards - Steve |
