Some good friends of mine are owners/designers of a highly respected vacuum tube amplifier manufacturing company you know. Not believing all the hokum, I was conducting a personal shootout of power cables on one of their premier amps and found the AQ Hurricane and Tornado to make an attractive audible difference. the other six or so cords ranging in price up to $4000. didn't make much difference, in this case. I was a bit surprised and called my friends to discuss. They actually voice their products extensively while designing them. "Yes we know" he said, "that's why we put the stock cords on that we do. We found the better cord was audible. Did you try our cord compared to the Hurricane?" "Also, you're best to go directly to the wall for power." I still have the Hurricane, but won't be discarding his stock cord either.
I'm having a really hard time with: "Power cable reduced my soundstage"...
My good friend that is in the business and very very knowledgeable calmed that a well made 10ga power cable reduced his soundstage... I'm not saying it will or won't but why would it? I would like to know the science behind this. I did research on here but not satisfied. I had a pair of Logans and they were wonderful and I used stock power cables and the stage was crazy... I have been making cables for years ( musician ) and know the value on quality... what is the magic?
