Aftermarket power cable for power conditioner?

Considering what you're asking a P/C to do as far current distribution, perhaps the well-received Pangea-9 is a reasonably-priced place to start.

Rant away Elizabeth! Pangea cords are on my "to buy" list. Thanks for the encouragement.

'....or is there no point'....aftermarket pcs do..in many intances..improve what you hear....like any other point in the chain, you have to experiment with a few to find one that you like best.but do they help...YES.!!!

at a buddy's system, we replaced a $1k cord into the Acoustic Revive RTP w/ a Stage 3 power cord (think $2k or $3k). improvement was clearly obvious, and affected every component downstream. YMMV
