You didn't mention whether you have tried other power cords in your system so I'm not sure if you have experienced the difference. I began as a total sceptic. About six years ago I canceled my subscription to Stereophile because they started talking about better power cords. I went for trhe ICs and speaker cables, but that was too much. About a year two years ago I got back into this crazy hobby and tried some of the better cords. They did sound better! I don't know why they work, but it stands to reason if they work in other applications the should work on your TT too. If they don't, try sprinkling some Pixie Dust. I hear audio advisor sells it now.
Power Cords - Pixie Dust?
As an audiophile I am always prepared to believe that almost anything can make a difference in the sound. But this one makes me wonder. I have a TNT MKV with JMW 12.5 arm. The stand alone motor turns, via a belt, a flywheel that turns, via another belt, the platter.
I have seen an add claiming that replacing the power cord between the SDS speed controller and the stand alone motor can improved the sound of the table, "increasing upper range resolution and sweetness" or some such thing.
I suppose I can see how a new power cord might be argued to improve speed stability, but for the life of me how can a special power cord improve "resolution and sweetness", when the only function of the motor is to spin a belt, that turns a flywheel that spins another belt that turns the platter?? Does this claim make any sense?
