Aftermarket umbilical cords


Hi folks. Does anyone have input on the use of premium cords connecting power supplies to pre-amps or phono stages? I've got a Pass XP-25 phono and wonder if replacing the stock connecting umbilical cord would benefit sonically. Thanks, Joe.

I’ve upgraded the power cables on my components for years and always found sonic improvements.

For a component the quality of the Pass xp-25 I would look at power cables from KLE Innovations or Nordost to make a significant improvement.

There are DIY cables that will also work extremely well - but they are for the more accomplished DIY’er - they’re not just attaching mains connectors to a piece of bulk cable, but they do look more complicated than most
