Power Cords--Your Preference?

spending a lot of time auditioning power cords---this is what I currently know---I seem to prefer the Kimber Palladian PK 10 to just about anything else I've heard---my Cardas Golden Reference was not even in the running.

Would be interested to hear your feedback about your favorite power cables----also, yet to find anything for CD player that improves the sound--even Palladian seemed a bit too much for CD and better suited to my PRE or Power Amp--- all CJ equipment. Thoughts?

I never heard the Burly in my system. I just took his word for it. I trust what he said about it and didn't bother buying one. There are a lot of people that like that PC, but it didn't work out in his system, so I passed.

Once I heard the Paul Kaplan GS MK2 power cords in my system, I've never given power cords a second thought.

I had the Mac Burly too and did not like what it did with my amp at the time.

Thanks ZMan and Foster_9. Foster What kind of amp did you have the MAC Burly connected to? I'm wondering if the Burly is better suited to SS gear rather than Tube gear.

Try Triode Wire Labs (TWL). They are easily the most natural sounding pc's I have ever heard, and I have tried quite a few reasonably priced cords ... CD transports and processors are especially appreciative of them as are most anything solid state. My CJ tube amp loves them too. Pete is also a great guy to work with. Good luck. PS I agree the stock cords with most amps are such throwaways...
