Power cord choice?

Was talking with Max Townshend the other day. Long rambling talk from one fascinating subject to another. At some point he mentioned I should check out this Audio Science Review, the founder is right here in Seattle.    

So I go check it out. WTF? Not one even slightly interesting subject. Would not have thought this even possible. Eventually I decide to bite the bullet, try and read this one post that was pinned and seemed to be sort of a statement of what the site is all about.   

WTF?! They apparently are all about justifying a certain level of expense, but no more, and you are a fool to pay more than whatever that level is, according to their mandarins, as determined by their own arcane semi-mystical set of measurements.   

It was at this point I knew Max Townshend is a prankster with a wry and very witty sense of humor.  

I don’t know Max but after seeing his videos which are very science-based I would guess that he would agree with the audio science review. Most scientists know how to speak the same language. Maybe all of you guys should meet on Bob carvers boat and talk about science and measurements and cables. If those three Guys would say that cables made a difference then I would believe it.

No. Wrong. Max saw that null video and soda pop came out his nose he laughed so hard.

The Audio Science review is nonsense. As is the null bullpuckey video Max chortled at.

I’ll listen to what my ears tell me, thank you.


The Audio Science guy listens to music from his computer, right?

A buddy sent me a Triode Wire Labs 10 plus PC to try. Put it on my amp Saturday and the change was immediate and amazing. Not subtle, huge and not debatable. Most of the audiophile superlatives apply. Soundstage width, depth, presence. Fuller slightly warmer tone but more detail and bass. I'm listening at lower volume but hearing more. Tamed a bit of an edge with my ribbon tweeter.
I ordered a TWL 7 plus cord today. 
Really incredible.

Great to hear.
I had an audiophile power cable maker analyze the Triode Wire High Power Digital power cable and he said it was a really good, definitely good sounding cable for the money($800).

If I could only spend $800 on a power cable meant for high current devices, I would definitely buy another Triode HP Digital American(especially to power a power conditioner)....So I am not surprised that any/all of Pete's cables are great.
