POWER CABLE FEATURES


Hi, for many years in this hobby I have paid the least attention to power wires ... I just used quality "computer" cords and that was enough.
Yes, I brought home expensive wires and compared them - there was a difference, but not so much to pay so much money for a piece of wire.

Now I decided to replace the cables (catching fleas - fine tuning the system), chose the manufacturer ...

So my question is - two cables of the same design, but different sections (1.5 and 2.5 squares) ...

How does the thickness of the cable most often affect the sound?

my consumers: CD transport (40 watts), DAC (50 watts), tube amplifier (consumes 130 watts).

Of course, it is better to compare and find out, but like everyone else, there is no such possibility ... Therefore, I am looking for those who have identified a common pattern (from personal experience).

Any caliber of these two will work for my system, but suddenly there is a feature that can be used ...

what I want ? - correct balance, more black background, image depth ...

Agree with MC no common pattern. There are too many variables that influence the sound quality of a power cable. I also agree with Pauly that spend three times more than you budgeted for. 
Cable design isn't so simple to rest on a single dimensional measurement. Too many elements to bother listing, but there's definitely a sum total more than individual parts quality to design. There's some known synergies around, but listening is the best way to find out. Saddle up your palomino! 
Start with Triode Wire Labs or EPS Essence....my ears like BMI (Whale, Orca mk3i, Hammerhead Gold) and Dynamic Design - AE15 series can be found for a relative bargain. Still some money though. The new DD are rediculously good.
Cables have come to represent components to me and, once you've found the equipment you like together, can really make them sing beautifully together.
