PC on a PC


I've never heard anyone talk about this:
Upgrading the power cord on a computer.

I suppose I should have posted this under the PC Audio category, but thought maybe I'd get better response here.

I burn a lot of music CD's and I've noticed that changing the power cord makes a difference in sound quality. I suppose a computer would fall into the category of digital equipment. The stock power cord is 18AWG so it doesn't seem to use as much power as one would expect. Can anyone recommend a decent power cord for this purpose that doesn't break the bank? Are Sonic Horizons any good (can't find much opinion on these)? SignalCable? Or should I go the DIY route?

Since computers use a switching power supply, the power cord should not be critical.

Just pick up a sheilded Belden to keep rfi from leaving the box and the cord acting as an antenna.

Is the computer turned off when you compare the disks?
