Fast power cables?

Amuseb, why are you insinuating that red necks are cynical, not funny or smart. That's as bad as a racial slur.

Amuseb ... In the mid 90’s I had a conversation with a designer/engineer/builder of power conditioners who did not build power cables and had just returned from the CES

Our conversation drifted to power cables and he was describing some that he heard at the show ... when the Shunyata brand came up his comments were nice cable but it lacks PRAT

He felt this was due to the FeSI-1000 compound over dampening and killing the PRAT

I’m wondering if your Shunyata has the FeSI-1000 filling in it ... maybe it’s lack of speed you perceive is a lack of PRAT due to the dampening material

For all the Red Necks who don’t know what PRAT is ........ Practical .. Range .. Against .. Target (;-)

Debatable differences amount to no difference at all,really. If you want to increase the speed of your amp, you have to deal with the internals. When you do, everyone is impressed.

I apologize if my comment could have been perceived as "racist". As I'm not a native American, it's possible I'm not 100% sharp on the meaning of the term I used. Sorry.
Other than that, I guess my message was clear.

Thanks for all the others for the constructive comments... keep them coming.

Please indulge an audiophile newbie (that is, I'm not asking to make fun of your question, but because I'm unfamiliar with these terms in regards to cables). How can a cable be fast and powerful? What qualities make one cable more or less fast/powerful than another?
