Power cord for low-watt tube amp?


I'm about to take delivery on a 7-watt push-pull EL84 amp in full triode. Just wondering whether there are any power cords particularly well-suited for a lower-powered amp like this? What's the latest thinking on whether power cords are less important for smaller amps like this?

All my amps are tube and low power. Art Audio PX-25, Triode of Japan 845, Emotion Custom 45, and Eddie Current Zana Deux. Power cords make a big difference in these low powered amps. I have tried many brands and I am most pleased after 8 years with Synergistic Research power cords.

I really like the Synergistic Research Hologram A (amplifier) model. About 900 to 1000 used. Another cord to try from SR is their newest Atmosphere Black Power cords at 400 to 600. These new Black cords come with a 30 day trial. I think it is worth calling High End Electronics or The Cable Company if you are interested in the new Black cords to arrange a trial.

Glad you are joining the small amp - great sound family.
