Projector Power Cords

there is no way a power cord that is connecting hundreds of feet of regular blah blah yada yada

The last 3-6 feet of conductors in the power line are the most important. I've also seen blah blah blah yada yada

These two quotes are two sides of the same coin. Which turns out to be a wooden nickel. The first 3 to 6 feet from the panel matters just as much as the last 3 to 6 to the component. Also the wire 30 to 60 feet BEFORE the panel matters just as much as those last few feet. Improvements made ANYWHERE along the way- or before (or after!) are equally noticeable regardless of whether its continuous or in sections. Every single foot matters.

This by the way is not guesswork, conjecture, or repeating blather others spouted once upon a time. This is from crawling around under the house treating wires, taking a panel apart (yes, down to the bus bars) and treating everything, even doing something clear out at the meter. Makes no difference where, its all equally good, in fact the changes made in the panel far away from the system are if anything better in magnitude than "the last 3-6 feet".

This ain't no placebo either. You do one, maybe you can convince yourself. But you do as many as I've done it adds up to something so extraordinary audiophiles are driving 200 miles and saying its fantastic and the best they ever heard, and that simply does not happen from no freaking placebo effect. Just don't work that way. Sorry, but you'll have to cook up some other equally nonsensical story masquerading as science. 

Good question. First tried one near the HDMI input on the projector. Nothing. Nada. Which was a surprise, as by now they had worked great everywhere else. So I pulled out the Synergistic placement guide. Ha! Says to place ECT near the connector on the SENDING side! Sure enough, that’s the place! No idea why, but then I have almost no idea why this stuff works in the first place.

The story is dither. Which could be. I’ve x-rayed ECT, HFT and PHT and can see what’s inside. Exactly how and why I don’t know but dither seems to play a role.

Why it matters which end it goes, that I totally do not know! Because I have tried these things all over the place and with very consistent results. But with video projectors anyway they seem not to do much on the projector itself but do improve video when used on the video source.

It will. Probably. Running mine through the conditioner sure helped. Wasn't able to upgrade the cord as it needs to be small and flexible. A bigger improvement than the conditioner was using a Synergistic Research ECT, that made the video noticeably clearer, more 3D.
