The Truth About Power Cords and there "Real" Price to Performance


This is a journey through real life experiences from you to everyone that cares to educate themselves. I must admit that I was not a believer in power cords and how they affect sound in your system. I from the camp that believed that the speaker provided 75% of the sound signature then your source then components but never the power cord. Until that magic day I along with another highly acclaimed AudioGoner who I will keep anatomist ran through a few cables in quite a few different systems and was "WOWED" at what I heard. That being said cable I know that I am not the only believer and that is why there are so many power cord/cable companies out there that range from $50 to 20-30 thousand dollars and above. So I like most of you have to scratch my head and ask where do I begin what brand and product and what should i really pay for it?

The purpose of this discussion to get some honest feed back on Price to Performance from you the end user to us here in the community.

Please fire away!

dynaquest4,


I had quickly come to one of those conclusions and I am rapidly reaching the other. This had started out respectfully with delkal, but unfortunately someone felt a need to "puff their chest". I don’t have any illusions they understand the topic or even care to. It is simply attention seeking. It is not an isolated event.


I do find it a bit weird they insist on repeatedly showing their ignorance about basic EE, even illustrating a knowledge level lower than a first year technician let alone a first year EE student. Oh well, I am only providing the space, they are shouting at the top of their lungs.
Their - possessive (they)
They're - contraction (they are)
There - position (here/there)

Here/hear?

To debate with him (or Geoff) is pointless.

You are still very new hear you will find your way over time and you seem to be smart so I think you will learn as you go there are many experts here to learn from!! Do not let you're feelings be hurt because you have made mistakes in your claims, assertions, or theories it is not personal it is science and engineering.
