Secrets of Home Theater and High Fidelity teamed up with the Bay Area Audiophile Society (BAAS) to conduct a blind AC power cord test. Here is the url:

I suppose you can interpret these results to your follow your own point of view, but to me they reinforce my thoughts that aftermarket AC cords are "audiophile snakeoil"

I think one of the easiest way to judge any upgrade (power cord, tube amp, or isolation device ... etc.) is to install it, listen to it, and then remove it.

I'm sure all upgrades will sound different going in, It's the ones that you can't live without, when you remove from your system, that are usually the keepers.

On the link thing ... if it wasn't for a good poke in the eye with a sharp stick from Sean awhile back, I wouldn't have learned how to do THIS. I think the advantage of using the mark up tags is you can check your link before posting.

I can't tell you the number of times I've cut and pasted a string only to get a 404 error or "no address found", because the poster flipped something in the address. It is very frustrating looking forward to gaining some new info, and coming away with nothing.

Choose your pleasure THIS or This ... http://www.audiogan.com ... try and cut and paste this link and see what happens.
