Any point in upgrading stock cables for a LPS?

@williewonka Checked out your website - tons of info and some really nice photography.

@macg19 - from what I can see the Node N130 has a mains 2 pin power socket

1. did the LHY LPS noticeably improve performance?
2. I have the Node 2i and I have replaced the stock power cable with an excellent DIY cable of my own design - it significantly improved its performance

You could try one of your existing Zavfino PC’s on the Node N130 by buying a 3pin to 2pin adapter like this one

• Amazon.com: PNGKNYOCN C14 to C7 Power Adapter,10A 250V AC IEC 320 C14 Male to C7 Female Power Adapter，Standard AC Power Cord Plug(2Pack) : Electronics
• I took this approach - first trying one of my 3in PC’s on my Node 2i before buiding it’s own power specific 2 pin cable

FYI - the power cables on both my Node 2i and my Simaudio Moon phono stage use solid silver wire for the Live conductor to maximize their details and dynamic performance.

• whereas the power cables for my amp and power distibution box all use OCC copper conductors

@macg19 - thanks, hope you can make use of the info

If  you have some spare time - take a look at

https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/duelund-conversion-to-diy-helix-geometry-cabling

• to see what others have contributed to the Helix Cable design - it's a bit long. but some good info also

The photography - thankfully, I'm not as passionate about the phtography as I am cables - that might get me thrown out of the house 😉

Why are mens hobbies so damn expensive - needle point next🤣

Cheers - Steve

@williewonka Ha!

About the LHY LPS: Yes, SQ improvement was not subtle. The upgrade requires replacing the internal powerboard as well as adding an outboard LPS so there is no need for adapters. 

I replaced the cheap PC to the LPS with a good quality PC I had on hand and that helped too which surprised me.

PS: FWIW All in My Digital source cost about $3700 including NOS Mullard’s, isolation base, vibration control, cables and LPS.

It sounds pretty good and very satisfying when compared to my much more expensive analogue source.
