suggest you check out PS Audio Dectet. It will protect your gear and you may hear a positive sonic benefit as well. I'm curious, what changes did you hear when you used your roommates power cord?
Power strip question
Ok, so this may seem off the wall. I am a professional guitar player and my best friend and roommate is a hardcore audiophile. Long story short I used one of his power cords to plug my Marshall into the power and noticed an immediate change in the sound of the amp. To my somewhat horror I realized that I am going to have to do a serious upgrade in power cords, patch cord connectors, etc which I've done largely by using Mogami cords for my effects and guitar which are a substantial upgrade that will do for now. I purchased my roommates used power cords when he upgraded his for his sound system.
I need to get a power strip or multi-plug station that plugs into a traditional electrical outlet. While gigging I have to use what electrical is available. Since I am an extreme neophyte I don't even know where to begin so any advice would be greatly appreciated
Thanks!

Ditto millercarbon's remarks. I sold gear for a couple of years in New York at Harvey Electronics. I'll bet that name perks up a few ears. Back then (80's) I worked the sales floor with a guy named Henry Yee. If you know instrument amps, you probably know Henry's name. Henry made a lot selling audio, but was busy beavering away on instruments with some pretty famous musicians. If Henry could change the sound of your guitar with a switch of components, why would one assume that a change of cable would accomplish nothing, plus/minus? Go for it! |
