Power Cords

Carl will tell you all about MIT Z II, for the money though you can get HT Pro-AC11 cords for $100-125 used very good value and good performance......I own PowerSnakes Sidewinder which goes @$250 new, very hard to find used though, I like very much for CD player. For up to $700 used you are into some high end cables......PS Black Mamba, Electraglide,etc I defer to others for advice in this price range.....Sam

Email stnemo@starpower.net and learn why his Stealth power cords are so good. (He's the designer, and all his cables can be seen at www.interlinkhouse.com.) I've found his a lot better than Classe and Cardas and some homemade ones of my own that were also better than Classe and Cardas. Don't pay a king's ransom for a power cord, not that they're unimportant. Stealths have a 30-day money-back guarantee.

Audition the Coincident power cable - moderately priced and will surprice you, the way they perform, needs at least 100 hrs. to sound it's best - very black - email Hifilogic@hotmail.com to audition one.

You could get into the Powersnakes Black Mamba or the new Powersnakes Viper even for what you are willing to spend. I had some Harmonic Tech AC 11s for my Pass amps and I found that the stock cords sounded better, if you have a bright system the Harmonic Tech might help, but for me they sound dark and slow. If you can afford it, nothing that I've tried even comes close to the King Cobra, it is laughably better than anything I've ever tried. You might check with Anthony he is very knowledgable and has great prices.
