green ears New member Username: Greenears Post Number: 2 Registered: Jun-05	Posted on Wednesday, July 20, 2005 - 03:52 GMT has anyone out there ever tested the difference between stock power cords and upgrades from companies such as ps audio. is there a noticeable increse in quality? would the upgrade be mute if ones system already connected to a monster voltage stabilizer. what if u use it on the stabilizer itself? i've heard a few people swear by them and i do believe a clean power=better sound but whats the benefit of good power cord. thoughts? thanks

I rewired my house a few years ago and was shocked (fortunately not literally) by the poor quality of the old wall sockets. The wiring was sometimes no longer firmly attached to the sockets. I like the look of the PS Audio Power Port receptacle. That must be a good place to start. I wonder have many $1500+ Nordost power cords are plugged into faulty $2 sockets? The cheapest PS Audio power cords look reasonable value. They are screened, to prevent any interference on the cords reaching your interconnects, and the connectors are solid. Though I doubt is you will notice any real audible difference unless your existing mains connections are poor.
