Power Cord for Accuphase Amplifier
I have a new Accuphase P-4600 amplifier and am looking for a power cord to replace the stock. So far I’ve tried the Cullen Crossfire and the IceAge OFC Frankencable. While both cables have worked well on my source components they have not performed better than the stock on the amplifier. So to those who have Accuphase amplifiers what power cable has worked for you?
As I mentioned in other threads Accuphase strongly recommends that you use only the stock cord and so far that has been the best. The. other two have resulted in a darker sound with less soundscape openness.
I’ve been trying to stay under $500 for the cord but would be willing to go a little higher if it improves the amps performance.
If you are trying to stay under $500 - For the past few years, I have been using ANTICABLES Level-3 Power Chords and am quite pleased with them. They sound better than stock chords and start at a sensible $330 (more $ for longer lengths). I have never used their Level 2 Power Chords. I have no affiliation. If you want, here is the link: Level 3 Power Cord (anticables.com) |
If the rest of your system is on the same or higher level as your amp, I don’t think you should start with a price limit. Though I have not used the service, this might be the place to start as they might have some advice based on experience with your amp and system: https://www.thecableco.com/lending-library
