The points made by @biketech60 reinforce my belief that the main problem with high-end cables is the shameless mark up. The just don't cost anywhere near, as in not in the same universe, what it costs to manufacture, distribute, and ship. How can I trust a company that wants to get me to pay 10 times the cost of the components used in a power cable?!? And no matter how they spin it 102ssc is not PCOCC. |
I have a Spectral preamp that has an outboard power supply with cheap factory cabling into and out if the the power box and have tried upgrading the cables and there was no audible difference in sound.I have an expensive set up and have upgraded most of the power cables but spending more than $100 to get decent connectors and shielding is useless.The power comes from the plant down the power lines into the house wiring addding a firehose $5000 per cable is ridiculous.The very best audio equipment is not improved by adding 3' of ultra expensive power cable from the wall plug to the input.

@peterfd unless you have an under-gaged, high impedance power cable. But if you have a low impedance power source, or some type of shielding, or... it can make a lot of difference. At the very least a good power cable can help you to reduce REFI near the component, no? |
