Do CD Transports benefit much from upgraded power cords?

In the light of seeing attacks from the streaming community for playing CD and the Delta Sigma bullies for asking about NOS, I’m okay with @jasonbourne71

I discovered recently that if you say “gullible” slowly enough, it sounds like “cable”.    
 

Perhaps if Jason 71 had put it this way; “It’s possible but, if there is a difference it will be many orders of magnitude smaller than spending an equivalent amount of money on upgrading your speakers” people might not be so rude to him. 
 

There is a genuine role amongst the “audiophile” community for scepticism. Otherwise we are all vulnerable to snake oil pedlars.
 

The only way to know the answer to this question would be to do a double crossover randomised control trial and apply a statistical process to determine whether the results are likely to be due to chance, or not. 
 

I’ve been into audio since 1969.  The acuity of my hearing is not what it was. But the credo I used in choosing components back when my hearing was very good, was never to pay more for something that I couldn’t immediately appreciate as an improvement.  I never regretted a single purchase based on this approach. 
 

My hearing is deteriorating, but my appreciation of music and the pleasure it brings is still increasing.  This is likely to happen to all of you, too, as the decades advance. 
 

In the meantime, I hope you all can appreciate the music.  

Objectivists say - theory says it doesn't matter, so it can't matter. Empiricists say, observation tells me it does matter. Technically informed empiricists then attempt to find out why, at a theoretical level, it does matter. The latter is how the state of knowledge advances and is all the better for that, in my opinion.

Empiricism, subjectivism, objectivism, et al are interesting classifications of thought but no matter what label you put on one’s way of thinking, they all distill down to individual sensory perception. It can’t be any other way. It’s all sensory input. I’m gonna call it Sensorial Perceptionism. Fancy! Feel free to spread it around or, you know, not. Either way, my senses won’t perceive any hard feelings. Or will they...? Beats me, I put on two different shoes this morning.

Anytime one of these wire threads come up I am always amazed at the non believing responses as they are derived from ignorance and or financial jealousy. It seems like many are afraid that anything that might be better is a reflection of the size of there manhood. Most of the doubtful posters likely don’t think there is a difference in one bottle of scotch to the next. There choice for best costs 20 dollars it it is the same as a 20 000 dollar bottle yet they have never tasted it. Many on here would be better to be happy with what they have and quit trying to belittle people that have more to spend then they do. There lives would be more peaceful and rewarding when they realize that.
