In Reply to: Are not "upgraded" power cords included or at minimum recommended by the companies performing the mod? posted by Robert C. Lang on April 22, 2007 at 23:04:40:
But whatever. I had forgotten that the benefits of power cord upgrades (and receptacles, and power conditioning) are not yet wholly taken for granted. But actually I was a power cord agnostic for a long time -- "it just CAN'T make much difference, can it?" -- and sometime ago built a few of the so-called Asylum Power Cords made of Belden 19364 wire with Pass & Seymour AC Plugs and Shurter IEC connectors, mainly because it could be done for 30-35 bucks or so, depending on length. These so outperformed stock cords in my system that I splurged on a pair of Wattgate 381 receptacles -- NOT cheap -- and was hooked.The ones I'm using now are as much better than the Asylum Power Cords as those were better than the stock cords. Better how? Better everything. Better bass in particular, but also more clarity and authority from top to bottom. A sense of limitless, effortless dynamics.
From POWER cords? Yeah, sounds counterintuitive, doesn't it. I wouldn't have believed it myself.
