Affordable Power Cords


Looking to replace the stock power cord on my Jolida 502A tube integrated amp and am considering purchasing Signal Cable's MagicPower power cord. But before I do so, I was wondering if other have had experience with this power cord and what their thoughts are about it? Also, would appreciate some suggestions on other affordable power cords ($50 - $100 range).

Thanks.

I got mine from Rick. Thank you very much.

It has some fantastic bass and is very smooth. The dynamics are not the best right now but I guess it needs some breaking in. Does the Power 3 really open up? How long does it require for break-in?
Break-in will probably be anywhere from 150-250 hours. This is just an educated guess based on my personal experience with numerous power cords with adequate dielectric. The dynamics, midrange openness and high-end extension are usually the last things to flesh out. Most power cords go through a one step forward, two steps backward roller coaster ride during their break-in. Also, take note that the Power 3 is a 12-gauge conductor cord. Some power components( i.e. conditioner, amp, etc., which require high current) might prefer a larger conductor cord. Once your Power 3 is broken in, experiment with it on a lower current component like your Cd player, tuner, etc.
The literature that came with my power 3 said it was a 14-gauge solid core THHN copper.
Sorry, my mistake. The Power 3 is a 14 gauge( actually smaller than the 12 gauge I previously stated) solid copper conductor.
