New expensive power cord for amp and no change in sound?


I bought new an expensive(for me) well known and reviewed power cord for my very good amp and plugged it directly onto the wall socket. After a couple of weeks of daily use I hear no change in the sound quality from a $500 cord. I don’t want to name it for fear of getting my thread deleted. You would know it or at least be aware of the company. Did I throw away several thousand dollars? Before I get the snake oil answer I want to let you know that I bought an upgraded cord for my pre as suggested by the pre’s manufacturer and am pleased with the results.

I guess for full disclosure the amp’s manufacturer said don’t bother. But I had had good luck with the pre so I thought it would be a good idea.

Anybody else have this happen to them?

Now that we have solved the power cord dilemma, let’s discuss something less controversial..like “climate change “.

- really, how does your system sound without one?

Probably similar to an acoustically well treated room that has no system in it.

@immatthewj absolutely! My pass amps are rocking audience forte f3 now (under $200 each). I also like TWL Seven Plus. Did not like AQ Hurricane, Tornado and Thunder. Loved Nordosr Frey 2. Furutech was really good as well. Didn’t like Cardas and Acoustic Zen (too warm with pass gear).
Like you said it’s all about the synergy and personal preference for sound.
