Do I need higher quality power cords?

So anyone wants to answer my question from above?

I have 14 AWG running inside the wall. I have a Torus plugged into it with a short 14 AWG cable. If I use short 14 AWG power cables for everything, how am I being limited in power, especially for low power gear.

Sure I get that the power cable is stranded whereas the power line is solid in the wall, but there is no way these components are being restricted in power by extra 6 feet of power cable of the same gauge, even if stranded.

@shadorne,@roberjerman, I always find it interesting when those folks who cannot hear differences in power cords ( as well as some other upgrades / tweaks ), claim these sonic differences do not / cannot exist, and then talk about voodoo or meditation. Upgrading the power cord of a piece of equipment is not necessary ( it is not necessary to upgrade tubes either ). But we do it to reveal greater musical involvement with our systems. In each of your cases, one of three things are occurring : 1 = The system is not up to the resolution level in which it can be heard ( including the room acoustics ). 2 = You have not tried any. 3 = You are deaf ( or just have weak hearing / inexperienced hearing ). Oh, I am sorry. There is a 4th. You guys may have joined the troll bandwagon. Nothing you could say will convince me ( and others ) it is our imaginations. I am sorry for my bluntness. Enjoy ! MrD.

Excellent post by MrD.  I agree totally.

Sounds like a case of inflated ego mixed with expectation bias, nothing more and nothing less.

Sorry for my bluntness, MrD.

mr D. I don’t dispute your finding. It is indeed quite possible you hear a difference because your equipment power supply is so woefully inadequate. This is NOT the same as “resolution level” unless you spend all your time listening to the AC 60 Hz power signal and other harmonics and related noise coming out your speakers.
