Can a better power cable make a difference if NOT plugged directly into an outlet?


I am curious about improving my sound with power cable upgrades.

At present, I'm using a setup which Almarg (RIP) used and which he recommended to me:

Wall outlet (hospital plug)
Audience Adept Response-ar2p power conditioner
Wiremold strip w/ Shunyata defender

I use Pangea AC 9 SE and AC14 SE cords, at present.

This setup has been quiet and hum free. 

Still I'm curious about whether better power cables might make some improvements, here or there.

The question is, whether any improvements a power cable could bring would be blunted or nullified by the setup I'm presently using.

Any thoughts?

Those who say power cables never matter, please go watch a cute cat video instead of posting here, please.

Make Audio Great Again?

I am not a cable denier and I have Transparent Audio mid level cables through out my system the Premium and XL's and a smattering of other brands like Cardas and Belden. 

Well, then there are the MAGA nutjobs...

Love what the folks at Schiit say about Power Cords and IC.

Plug the end of the supplied IEC cord in

types, but they won’t really do anything—
what about the thousands of feet of crap
copper cables in your walls, huh?

Beyond Just Technology: SuperUltraHyperTechnology
PYST cables are made from only the finest 6-nines Unobtanium™ alloy, molecularly assembled in our Alternate Universe™ reality-distortion tesseract field , using a secret geometry reverse-engineered from crashed UFOs, painstakingly smuggled out of Area 51 by deep-cover operatives. Performance is further enhanced by the use of a QuantConnect™ quantum-entangled pair of transmission interfaces, held at absolute zero by our exclusive Stasis Field™ technology. The cables are then wrapped in NanoAeroCap™, a nanotechnology-enabled aerogel anti-capacitance insulation system, featuring Fractal Interleaved Geometry™ to create negative inductance for maximum audio transmission quality.
 
Or, er, well . . . again, no. These are nice, high-quality cables, with solid, reliable connectors. That’s it. Hope you like them!

You rage infused MAGA dudes always find a way, don’t you Jerry?

@thyname I am not this Jerry, and this is getting very tiresome. Also if you had one ounce of intelligence, deductive reasoning or critical thinking skills you would have seen I was quoting another post that had since been deleted.  That was the gist of my remark, looking at your history in the archives you never fail to get your little political shots in, I was simply having fun with the other guys post.

You are OBVIOUSLY and CLEARLY the one and only deranged Jerry

 

Not sure whether this is because of your alleged stroke six usernames ago, or whatever, but you definitely need mental and professional, and medical help. I sincerely wish you a long, multiple months long and healthy life. Anger management can potentially help
