Hahaha was just busting your chops
Curious how the audience cables will sound in your system.
A not sarcastic question for the power conditioner/upgraded power cord folks
And I realize that there are those that don’t believe in either
Assuming you use a power conditioner and after market power cords, do you feel that the power cord from the power conditioner to the wall might be a limiting or even a negating factor to the performance of the after market power cords that run from the power conditioner to the gear?
The reason I ask is that I was about to embark upon some more experimentation with different power cords and where I plugged them into when I discovered that the aftermarket cords I had purchased before and some recent arrivals are actually a meter shorter than the ones that came with the gear. This doesn’t matter for the amp due to its location, but when I did my last power cord upgrade I ran my CDP and pre into a conditioner so the length for those didn’t matter either, but as I was doing the musical chairs with power cords thing today, I also was intending to run the CDP and pre straight into the wall on separate dedicated circuits, but I found out that I am a tad short on those two.
Which doesn’t preclude me from moving my dedicated circuit outlets up a couple of feet, and I suppose I probably will, but I was curious as to the opinions about the limitations of a power conditioners power cord.

@audphile1 , at the risk of being trolled by the Shea "brothers" (Chriso and Tim), I'll give you a quick update of sorts. The maintenance I was going to do never got past the staging process. In other words I had everything unplugged and moved out of the way and had my drywall tools and etc on site and ready to go, but I just couldn't get myself to start the project. I do plan on moving those outlets, but for the time being I set everything back up with the "glorified strip" and I have been listening for maybe a week. I have not A/Bed those new cords (yet) but I must say I am liking the way everything sounds right now. And I was not feeling that positive about it when I shut it down for the maintenance that did not happen. With that typed, I am not saying for positive that it was the new cords I put into my system. I am a moody person and the ears are connected to the mind and the mind (at least my mind) is a complicated entity and it does funny things to me. Not funny as in ha ha, but funny as in I don't understand it. @mclinnguy , yes, you were/are right, and I took your advice. |
