Power Cables for Class D Amplifiers


Do Class D amplifiers that are very efficient, high power, (ie 600 watts at 8 ohms 1110 watts at 4 ohms) require the heavier lower gauge power cords (10, 9, 8 guage) that we see used on the heavy inefficient high power and high current amps? I ask because the stock power cable that came with my Class D amp was even thinner than the usual stock cord. It's something like a 14 gauge power cable! Is a 10 gauge or lower power cable needed in this ampliifier class as it would be in Class A or AB?

It class D there are other problems likie it is calls D and a power cord could help but a Solid Class A or AB would yeild better result from a bigger cord. I do not wish to offend anyone. I already had my experimint time with a Class D amps and I have moved back to Big American Class A AB amps.
My friends keep brining over super powerful and always the latest generation of class D amplification and my Pass Labs X350.5 keeps its title of top dog over the digital amps.
