Transparent Audio power cords

@ghdprentice "Power cords make a very big difference, and especially on amps. Generally more than interconnects and on the order of speaker cables (on amps). Transparent Generation five and six further lower the noise floor, improve balance across the audio spectrum, and increase detail. 

being decades long analog design engineer I would love to ask you to actually measure noise floor for different power cables, specifically original high end ones, assuming fully functional, vs whatever you pick “better” ones. //regards

yea sounds like a lot of you have drunk the kool aid on cables i laugh heartily when i watch all the great you tube videos like audioholics who actually measure cables and can show it is all mostly malarky and psycho-somatic delusions !
but i laught even more when i read some of this drivel here! 
In this case you honestly believe you can detect differences that cannot be measured ! pretty funny ! you have a unique super sensitive perceptual ability so superior why you must be a superman! you are better than all other humans er , NO you are not sorry ! 
Audioholics said :
We've spent 20+ years debunking the snake oil claims in audiophile/esoteric cables. In this video I make a proposal to the audio industry to STOP abusing fully understood engineering claims to justify the sales of their products and I will stop calling them snake oil. I further offer audiophile cable companies to submit their products to Audioholics for 3rd party verification testing which they can then publish on their website to help consumers make more educated purchasing decisions. “That which can be asserted without evidence, can be dismissed without evidence.” - "Hitchens razor

it is proven beyond doubt the $18K AQ cables are pure rip off snake oil and i am not too afraid to say it ! they actually got WORSE when they added the BS batteries to them WORSE performance ! someone actually made some cables out of old coat hanger wires that tested better ! LOL 
science is great ! you all need to do more blind A-B -C testing w/ someone else swapping the cables !  watch and learn fr a real HONEST audio engineer w/ an impeccable reputation for over 25 years and stop deluding yourself ! ( LOL but you won't ! ) 
PS you have all that crappy cheap wiring fr the power meter thru your circuit breaker panel thru the walls and you ACTUALLY believe a few feet of expensive wire fr the wall plug to your gear is THE solution! LOL , NO

@quickjack1234 this scientist and 55 year + audiophile did the experiment with the Audioquest DBS system on speaker cables and interconnects and found a significant difference in the “blackness “ of the background. Ie, the noise floor was reduced, allowing more detail and things to be heard that were not audible otherwise. The exceedingly sensitive instrumentation that I used were my ears.

Do not tell me otherwise what my own instrumentation didn’t tell me.

comments !
cables yes you are delusional you spent the $ you have an expectation of results bias you actually think you can hear things that cannot be measured ? Did you do double blind A-B tests ? NO clearly not so pseudo science ! no one would dare try to publish such pablum in a scientific journal the peer review would skewer you !

@garykarczewski6678 So you’re telling me power that traveled hundreds of miles through antiquated power lines, then reached your 40 year old panel, with 40 year old breakers, then traveled a few more feet through your 40 year old wiring to your equipment is magically going to get fixed by an expensive power cable? Do people really believe this garbage?

I can see how people without any knowledge of electrical systems could believe power cables make a difference but to anyone with even the most basic knowledge (most audiophiles i imagine) its just ridiculous they coukld believe a power cable could make any difference. Its insanity! These people need to be locked up in a padded room especially they audio reviews claiming " oh this cable really added volume to the mids!" wtf!

The only reason folks push obnoxiously priced power cords is simple - money. If you call them out and ask them to do a blind test, they won’t. They say it can’t be measured with equipment, you have to hear it to believe it. They’re pushing this junk because they’re getting a kickback or a commission. Thank you for the video!

... being decades long analog design engineer I would love to ask you to actually measure noise floor for different power cables ...

If you're such an experienced engineer, why would you ask someone else to undertake measurements for your benefit?
