No matter the cable hour sound will change. Then your room acoustics play a huge role. So it not easy to tell anyone what works because I once changed my drapes behind my speakers and I had to reset my system. My advise is to try before you buy. How any PC impacts your gear power supply is a crap shoot. I can say Harmonic Technology makes a Magic power cord that is superb for front end gear.
Importance of Power cords feeding Conditioners
I have heard it said that the most important power cord is the one into the distributor block. Well specifically I have heard it said at the Nordost roadshow demos, by the ever young and enthusiastic Lars.
At the recent UK show, he compared an all Red dawn cabled system, with an all Valhalla system. He changed one cable in the red dawn system, an Odin cable into the QB8 block on the red dawn system and sure enough, it sounded better than the all Valhalla system.
My question, if this is true and it seems so to my ears at the demo, that it is, is it equally true for all power conditioners? In particular, I am using a Pure Power APS 1050 regenerator. This is supposed to isolate the system from the mains by regenerating an AC wave form from a battery supply. In theory, this should make it immune to power cords feeding it. I will try some experiments myself, but has anyone got any comments about this? Thanks
