I would hazard a guess that system resolving power is one of many variables that could bottleneck the performance of a power cable or make differences in cords less noticeable. I’d think it also depends on how noisy an environment is, how clean the AC input power is, and also how good the regulators are in the components that the cords are connected to. In a hypothetical (and probably not realistic scenario), if you have a highly resolving system, clean power, no material EMI to speak of, and high quality regulation built into the gear, maybe you wouldn’t notice differences between cords. Some very high end gear comes with power regulation in a separate chassis. Is it possible that such components, if implemented right, at least partially negate the effects between a lower end and higher end cord?
Importance of power cable for Turntable?
Just purchased a Gryphon Diablo 300 integrated with the optional phono stage and DAC module. I purchased AudioQuest Hurricanes for both the amp and my digital source. How important would it be to do the same for a high end turntable (which I don’t have just yet)? Would an AudioQuest Hurricane Source be a good choice for a high end turntable as well? Or is it even needed? I do notice subtle improvements with my amp and digital source.
Thanks
