Opinions: PC's with strong lows roll off the highs


In the past months I've been trying quite a few different power cords in my setup. A fellow Agoner that is very knowledgeable about power cords stated that power cords that support strong low end performance generally roll off the highs. More and more, that experience seems consistent with me too. I'd sure like to find a reasonably priced cord (closer to $500) that can support powerful low end performance and maintain extended highs. Do you have an opinion on this based on your experiences? We know this is all system dependent, but have you found a power cord that can perform both frequency extremes with no roll off?

Try Taipan Helix Alpha. Diamnodback and Copperhead are good but not as good as the Taipan and up. Also, have you tried Audience? Not crazy expensive but very good cords. I used to have all Audience powerChords at some point. Couldn't complain about the highs or lows.
Look, let's get serious now. First off, your equipment will say alot about what kind of cord/results you can expect to achieve. Putting Mapleshade brass footers and weights on my equipment was a revelation and should be done before you try any more cords. Also, using a product like the MIT Z stabilizer III HG will allow you to make a better judgement on where your system is now and where it needs to progress toward. Cords alone make no sound!

The quality of the powercord will determ the purity and the momental capasity of the current led into the powersupply. Add ing more momental capasity will give a stronger bottom by increasing dynamics. That won`t in any way decrease top-end quality. By increasing the powersupplys dynamic capasity high freq distortion will be redused as well. To a not to skilled ear that my sound like a redused top, but fact is that it`s just cleaner.

It`s all about how much current that`s added to the powersupply and the quality;how clean that current is. Stranded cables creates a lot of internal cross-over distortion when current flyes confused between the many tiny conductors. This also dramaticly reduses dynamic capasity as well. Hairthin conductors in it self have wery poor capasity and steals a lot of dynamic power.

Btw; I`m using DIY massive (and shielded) PC`s, nothing comes close to massive, thick massive :)
Momental capasity? Maybe instantaneous current capacity is what you are referencing. Heavy gauge wire is superior indeed with proper design and shielding plus I believe in a well designed network ala Transparent or MIT!
Dave_b, are you a MIT/Transparent dealer? You seem to really be pushing those cords/cables. It's one thing to have an opinion, it's another to keep hammering away at others if they don't share your opinion. Though I do know salesmen that work like that.
If you're not a salesman, please give it a rest. We get it, you like MIT/Transparent, now let's move on.
