I am in Seattle and I greatly appreciate your kind offer to hear your system. I am sure it better than mine, as I am still working on the room to set it up in. Will PM you with contact info.
I am simply saying that worrying about the power cord for a product whose purpose is to improve the power quality implies a lack faith in that product's ability to do its job.
And I'm sorry, but I don't see any logic in your statement. You talk about a ripple or artifact from the original power source (the utility I presume) being carried through the AC/DC and DC/AC conversion unless you disconnect AC power and run it on a battery alone. That's just not true. A voltage regulator in the circuit will eliminate ripple current. I am sure the PS Audio device has something like that. This could be easily determined by testing the regenerator on a O-Scope. In any case, no power cord is going to eliminate ripple current.
