You should have bought one with tone controls. The one I have has tone controls and a small 5 band EQ. BTW it was also cryogenically treated

Interesting PC @grunge1000 . What component is being driven by this PC? What is the rest of your system?

@foggy--I didn't disappear. I am having a ball with popcorn in hand. Please show me ONE statistically relevant test that shows PC sonic impact? Please do.

Cheers,

Keep eating your popcorn, since you know everything already.

Cheers!

A well-shielded power cable with conductors of good conductivity and sufficient gauge like this is all you need.  Save $450 for something that really matters to the sound like power conditioning.  I believe in cable but you got to spend the money in the right way.

To elaborate, as long as a power cable meets the basic electrical requirements, i.e., sufficient gauge to carry current without voltage drop, proper conductivity, adequate shielding/grounding for safety and noise rejection, and compliance with electrical codes, its effect on *sound quality* should be negligible from an engineering standpoint.

If you could think of anything else that could affect sound quality, educate / convince me and I will be more than enough to learn from you.

Or better yet, two of these!
