Let's talk power cords


Does a upgrade really make a difference over a stock cord?

Here we go again!
This has been debated many times...
@jmcgrogan2, I could not stop laughing at your post, my friend!
@thirsty93, IMHO power cords do make a huge difference period.
Anyone that has not experimented with power cords should not comment about this question based upon common sense.
If one can’t hear the difference between several upgraded power cords and/or a stock power cord then I believe one of several factors come into play here.
Equipment isn’t up to the task to produce the differences in music.
Your ears are not trained to pick up the finer detail.
You have a hearing deficit and don’t realize it.
I would always recommend that if a stock power cord can be easily replaced, eventually do it when you have the cash. Many stores will allow an additional trial period so you can decied for yourself.
Sorry for all you "hopfuls" but they do make a difference.  Heard it significantly 15 years ago when I put in one SR Master Coupler.  No fake news here.
This is the same controversy that involves the issue of cables generally. There are people here who do not hear the benefits of cable burn-in. It doesn’t align with their adherence to science, believing that all parameters of sound must have a measurement of some type to justify what we hear.

@thirsty93 Like others have suggested, I would borrow some power cords from a place like the Cable Company and judge for yourself!

Bonne Chance!
Willemj,
No need on this forum to introduce politics and snide condescending remarks about the United States.  Please stay on topic if you don't mind. There are many available venues for political discourse.

Power cords definitely make a difference. I was sceptical, so I made cheap DIY cords. I heard a difference. Then I made great DIY cords and heard a bigger improvement. Supplies for the basic cords were around $30/cord and somewhere around $60/cord for the great cords, including connectors.
