Quietest BUDGET high-current power cord?

Now that you have established a budget of $500, I once again highly recommend a DIY Acrolink 6N-4030 cable with Furutech connectors.

Brf, the Acrolink wire is $145/meter. 3 meters = $435 = little-to-no money left over for four plugs...

I would look at Blue Circle BC62's. They kick ass on monoblock amps here. Bettered Tg SLVR's, Audience PowerChord, Shunyata Taipans, JPS AC+, Cardas Golden Ref... Only on the amps though. The BC62's do not get a lot of publ. but do no harm, as I hear it. Like some here, I prefer a few different cords on preamps, digital, and phono...

But on the amps, they get the Timbre, PRaT, stage... just right. full bass too (and upper/midbass).

Tvad, Absolute silence... in an ideal world, that is. "Black" is an adjective often used to describe the space from which sound emanates. I've heard the difference in the various pcs I've tried on my front end. I expect the same will apply to the back end. Like everyone, I'm hoping to minimize the trade-offs, and quiet (ease, naturalness, effortlessness...) is a quality I cherish. I've worked painstakingly, step by step, starting from the front end, to reduce noise in my entire system and I'm pretty happy with the result. For instance, I recently commissioned an outboard linear power supply for my dac and added vibration control to all my hardware. In addition, I employ some modest power conditioning and replaced my wall outlet with a high grade OCC unit. (I rent so I can't go behind the wall.) It seems prudent to exercise the same care in dealing with pcs.
