Power cords don't have bass emphasis. However, some cords will work better with some gear than others, and thus may reveal more music. My humble opinion, mind you.

Power cords with bass emphasis
I'm looking for a power cord that has a slightly elevated bass response, but which isn't wooly, for my preamp. Telling you that it's a Jadis DPL tube preamp isn't very helpful, though, as it's been so heavily modified. Let's just say it's a tad bright, extremely detailed and lean.
I listen to a lot of funk. I don't need the bottom octave, so much as a good, strong output from 40-80hz. I'm using a solid state YBA amp (with a Camelot Sir Bors pc hard-wired in) on the woofers of my Martin Logan Sequel IIs and two modified, tubed mono GTA SE-40 amps on the panels. I listen to a lot of vinyl with a Van den Hul Frog on a Well-Tempered table and arm. I use Audience AU-24 and Acoustic Zen cables (Matrix II and Silver) and a Nordost Quattro Fils. They are in a constant state of flux, though. I'm using an Audio Magic Stealth PLC through a Virtual Dynamics Reference for everything, except a PS Audio Ultimate Outlet for the SE-40s. (Please don't tell me to sell the Nordost because it's lean. I like it too darn much.) I can spend between $250-$350. Any suggestions?
