Power Cable Audioquest Dragon vs Isotek EVO3 Ascension

My amp is only 180 watts nameplate so I only need 1.5 amps so I'm going to power it with a 20 gauge wire. I assume eveyone is ok with that?

Just showing the foolishness of thinking traditional P=IV for powering an amp.

OP,

I am really sorry for all those unhelpful posts by @jasonbourne71. That is his thing.

I only own an Audio Quest Hurricane for my amp. After working through many other power cords it just completely hit the right (neutral) tonal balance and low noise floor. I compared with quite a few other PCs.

But I have not tried a Dragoon or Isotec. Given the chatter from folks that have gotten Dragons, this would be my first choice. But at this level, you should be able to try and compare.

Anyone who drops that much money on a power cord without even considering the basic science that shows them to be a total scam can probably be counted on to buy $5000 in gift cards to get themselves out of a jam with the IRS.

@invalid : my mistake! Actually a 14 gauge cord can pass lots of current - if only for milliseconds! It will get hot briefly! Enough to melt the insulation? Possibly! I wouldn't use it for arc welding!

@jhnnrrs : at last! Someone not afraid to speak the truth! The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) should examine the spurious claims made by the power cord purveyors.
