Mapman, there may be some logical way to do this but I don't know exactly which course to take. I'm thinking of trying one brand of pc from a small designer who sells at somewhat reasonable prices (reasonable for this crowd) and replacing all the ones I have with this brand in order to hear the affects. For sure it won't be any cords that cost more than about $300. I am simply not willing to spend the money some fellows here spend for power cords. When you total, even at that price, re-cabling each component with a new pc still comes to a hefty price tag in my opinion, but I recently have some extra cash and I'm curious. I will start with a cord on my amp and see how that goes and then likely will add another of the same brand but different gauge on another component and so on and so on. I think that's where I'm headed.
