Audio Research SP-6 captive cord.......


Would changing a captive Audio Research SP-6 model preamp cord to an "IEC" change the value of the preamp? Presently, I don't have any intentions to upgrade to another preamp but was wondering how much better the preamp might sound if I could try different power cords.Has anyone who owned a SP-6 changed the captive cord and did it accomplish much of an improvement? I have a tech who can do the change with no problem.

Thanks

No I don't think it would hurt the value at all.To me it would make it more valuable not only to you but to someone interested in buying it from you ( if you decide ever to sell ) .. If nothing else for the flexability alone,its worth more..If I had two SP6 pieces to pick from,both in the same condition..I would chose the IEC piece no question.....Heck if you wanted to,you could take the stock cord and put another IEC end on it and offer it to the next owner........
