Upgrading power cord.. proven upgrade? or crap?


The thing i cannot understand is how a new high quality cable will enhance the quality of the flow of electricity that previously went into cheap house electrical wires ?

it's like saying that with good equipment u'll get a higher than CD sound from a FM stereo source or a cheap Mp3 ..

please help me understand .. :)

Jinmtvt,

Seems like just more smoke and mirrors sent directly from the same marketing Gods who brought you $19.95 instant paint scratch remover for your car. I'm a world class cynic when it comes to high end audio, but these really work. Placed some LAT International cords on my VTL monoblocks and Ensemble all around my digital and the results are unquestionably positive in a large way.

Don't know why, don't care. Less glare, more detail, better attack. It's truly weird.........yet wonderful. LAT power cords can be found for a very reasonable price at echohifi.com.

I must agree with the previous posts. I tried one on my ARC cd player. I thought it would be maybe a minor inprovment. It was a best buy situation. Big bang for the buck. I am using the Custom Power Co."High Value" cord. They aren't lying about the high value part. I want to put IEC plugs on everything I own. Maybe not the coffie maker?
cool..thanks guys..
the only way i can see how it would works..is by regularizing the in flow or current from the source wires ?
maybe it limitates wrong pulsation by using more regular homogenous conductor..
neway
if it works :p

i'll try it for sure when i'll have equipment in wich it will maybe make a diff ..

thanks again :)
The proof is not in the pudding, it's in the PUTTING.

Buy one of the used cords for sale at this site. PUT IT in your system on first one piece, then another. If after listening for a few weeks you disagree, it can be resold at little or no financial loss.

You will discover for yourself that these posters are correct.
There *are* palpable reasons, it seems, which I cannot actually reproduce -- an ee could probably.

It might be worth trying a used power cord on your present system. One such made an important difference on a tiny micromega integrated!
