Try signal cable.. They have a 10ga power cord starting t 89$ that is well made and up to the task..
One Cord To Rule Them All
I'm seeking advice for a power cord to go from the wall outlet to my PSA P10 power regenerator. It needs to be 1.5M / 5 ft. and have the ability to pass 600 watts for many hours per day. My current PC is a Pangea AC-9, and my budget is about $200 to $300. The candidates I have so far are: Pangea AC-9 SE Mk ll, Audio Envy Ocean 3, or a PS Audio AC10 (used for about $300). Any thoughts? ... Thanks

He already has a well-made 9 awg power cable. For $89, he could purchase a better made 7 awg power cable. If he wants to spend a bit more, here is another 7 awg cable that should sound good powering his regenerator. If he wants to spend more, a dedicated power line would be a good thing IME. |
You want to get power from the wall to the regenerator over a distance of 5 feet? And you want to push 600 watts (5A at nominal voltage). How would you spend more than a couple of dollars doing that? Standard household power cable does that all day long. Nothing is going to change between the wall and the regenerator. It is the PSA 10's job and raison d'être to eliminate line noise, waveform fluctuation and feed perfect sine wave power to your equipment. Spending hundreds of dollars for a "cable" to bring it power makes no sense whatsoever. |
Well, it looks like there are 2 camps here. One says keep what I have because before the P10 "wire is wire" and the other half thinks it all matters. Just for the record, it is a dedicated line with a SR Black power outlet. I was tempted to get the Audio Envy Mega 3, but this ongoing discussion has me undecided. I guess like all "hi-fi" there will be forever disagreements. |
