Power cable architecture from start
Hello guys,
So, I am taking the first step to start upgrading the cables in my system (N20--> Tambaqui --> Luxman509z --> 805D4).
I am planning to start with power cables. I have a dedicated 20amp recepticle on a 10awg wire. Currently everything goes through that with a cheap power strip.
This is what I was thinking. Please help me refine, add to this as you see.fit.
1. Get a puritan PSM156 conditioner. Get a HC 20 amp cord for it ?
2. Get C15 cord for Amp HC I guess ?
3. For DAC/Source get 15 amp C15 power cord.. should this be high current or Noise reduction.. for shunyata I see NR/HC varieties.
HC = high current. I see 20 amp being mentioned on some cables. I am looking at audiomart for used cables. I guess it means that they are thicker gauge and can carry higher current. But I am not sure if they are better than 15 amp regular cords. Also, perhaps, there are different recommendations for power conditioner vs amp vs other gears. I am not an influencer or affiliated with Puritan. Just highlighted my preference. |
Using the Two Links below will introduce Power Cable and Termination for it that will surpass a usual Wall Connection, as the Wago has Pure Copper used as clamps. My experience is that PCCCC Power has a substantial influence on SS and Digital. Valves is more subtle in discerning a difference created. https://zenmarket.jp/en/rakutenproduct.aspx?itemCode=audio9:10000582

……listen ( no pun intended ) to classicrockfan as cables , line conditioners are a waste of money, and all amps and speakers sound the same . The more my system progressed and became more refined , the more these pieces made a difference . Yes , they all make a difference but what do I know …..just ask him ! |
