Power Cable Shootout...

Thanks Tvad,

I think that could get expensive...let's say that I would like a power cable for my MC207 and I am willing to spend $1000 on the cable...if I select 5 finalists (which is incredibly hard based on the amount of venders out there) that would be 5K.

Also, all of the "Power" cables state that they have, "less noise", I believe that this is something tangible and measurable. I just thought that with all of the knowledge in this site that someone would have compared. I realise that this is not necessarily the most defining determination on how a power cable is going to affect your system sonically but it is something tangible that might separate those who can stand up to their marketing claim vs. those who can not.

Has no one ever had this thought before???? :-)

Thanks again,

Thanks again,

In your opinion is there a short list for me to start looking for used? Names that come to mind are, lossless, Kimber, Harmonic Tech, MIT, JPS and Audio Magic...have a I left any out for the journey?

hi tvad:

the solution to the burn-in issue is obtain "couplers" which enable you to connect as many power cords together as you want.

within a 30 day period the break-in process should be completed. if necessary, purchase a break-in device or use a break-in cd. either one will shorten the break-in time and permit a comparsion of say 5 power cords, within the 30 day alloted time limit.

been there last year - a tedious tedious process. my top picks were the RSAD alethias sig, shunyata anaconda helix alpha and the lessloss PC. if it is in your price range the RSAD PCs I believe are very hard to beat for the money. they are very neutral and natural. their alethias sig to me was second to none by a very wide margin.
