Power Cords


I currently have Wireworld Silver Electra power cords with upgraded Platinum plugs. I had two 1M Wireworld Platinum power cords, but rearranged my system and required longer cords. Yesterday I borrowed two Shunyata Sigma NR power cords. On the first note my wife softly said, "that sounds better". She said it was clearer. I listened for a couple hours, changing the power cords a couple of times. In my system and to my ears this is my conclusion:
The Sigma's are cleaner, definitely has more bass, a dead silent and completely black background. The Wireworld cords are more detailed, with a wider soundstage and better spacing/separation of instruments. All things considered I'll keep my Wireworld, but I'm curious to listen to other power cords.
After inserting the Sigma's I just don't understand how anyone that listened to different power cords could conclude that they can't hear a difference. There is a difference, but like any other component the individual has to decide if the change is worth it. $6K for two power cords is relatively expensive. Expensive, but oddly maybe a good value? In my system there was a definite improvement with better bass impact and articulation. Would spending $6K or just changing amplifiers yield similar results? As with most components there are trade-offs...is there a power cord out there that has the benefits of the Sigma's and Wireworld Silver Electra's? If so, at what cost?

All my comments are a reflection of my analysis in my system, with my ears. For you to say " IMHO to flatly say Shunyata power cords were aimed at the mids and top ends of the bandwidth as to their best attributes is absurd. This is again, IMO and subjective." Nothing I said was absurd, it's my opinion based on listening with my equipment. You don't have to agree with my opinion. It's funny you acknowledge everything is subjective and at the same time suggest any opinion that differs from yours is absurd. If you believe it's subjective and I hope every one has a right to state their opinion, it's hard to say that they are wildly unreasonable or illogical.Then again, you're free to think what ever you want!
Richard: You might ask Galen if he has a Cardas Clear Beyond cable to loan you for your Rowland amp. I'm interested in knowing how you would compare them to what you hear with the Sigmas. I f Galen doesn't, I'm headed to SA the first part of December and, if you want, I'll bring one of mine for you to listen to--although the longest I have is 1.5M. Let me know if this interests you.
Peace

You’re more than welcome to visit me when you come to SA. My system has changed a little since your last visit. How is your system sounding after all of your updates? How's the Antipodes DX 3?
@ricred1 I will take you up on the offer to visit. On the Antipodes DX 2 front, I ran into a dealer customer service issue, but the Antipodes National Sales Manager came to the rescue. I'm very impressed with Antipodes corporate customer service. Waiting to take delivery on a new Antipodes DX 3. When it arrives, I'll burn it in and let you know what I think. @guidocorona I'll keep you posted as well once the DX3 makes its way into my system.  
I'm happy with my Antipodes DS GT,  but my friend insisted on getting me a DX 3 to try. I preferred the DS GT over the DX 2. Will see how the DX 3 compares to my DS GT.
