Solid core power cords under 300$ - List of manufacturers ?

Even more humorous - here is the description of that power cord from PS Audio's website:" Inside the AC5 is one LCC hollow conductor for the treble region, a large LCC rectangular conductor for the midrange and multiple gauges of LCC bundled together for the bass.".  Forgive me if I am wrong, but don't power cords ONLY handle one frequency - 60 Hz?????

jea48 - hate to digress, BUT.... the PS Audio cord is made with thicker than normal STRANDS. Solid core would be simply 3 conductors ( one hot/one neutral/ and one ground). Since the PS Audio has multiple conductors per leg, it is NOT a solid core conductor cable.

Solid core would be simply 3 conductors ( one hot/one neutral/ and one ground).

And who told you that?

Have you ever heard of parallel conductors?

@geoffkait  “Who cares!”

The subject is about SOLID CORE CONDUCTORS used in the manufacture of aftermarket power cords.

>>>>Yes, I know. I was addressing solid core conductors.

I could give a flying F about a review!

>>>>>>Whatever.

There may be something to the concerns of using solid core wire for power cords.  Note, for example, that Morrow Audio uses solid core wire for all of their cable products except their power cords.  Just sayin'.
