12 AWG Mains Power Cable From Wall To Power Conditioner Sufficient?


Is a 12 AWG mains power cable adequate for use between the wall outlet and power conditioner? Low-powered components such as streamer and DAC as well as a subwoofer will be connected to the power conditioner. The integrated amp will go directly to another wall outlet.

Thanks for all responses. Surely useful.

Yes audphile, there may be a possibility that the amp is connected to the power conditioner just to experiment if it will sound better going through it or directly to the wall outlet. The wall outlet will always be available for the amp. The thing with the Furutech DPS-4.1 is it’s significantly costlier than the TCS31, and I have not factored in the plugs. My actual budget is actually at the FI-28 (R) and TCS31 level. Going up to FI-50 NCF (R) and DPS4.1 is quite a stretch (it's 3X the cost I think) and would have blown my budget. The advice is appreciated though.

@ryder got it. Is TCS cable with NCF on the IEC end with FI-28 R male AC plug an option? If so, do that. Or just wait till you can get NCF all around. 

Just switched out my oldie last night/listening for new furt alpha 3/ Rhod-28’s.(diy)..what took me so long...wow!
