I agree that power cord upgrades should make little difference. I had a spare cord and put onto the very competent power supply to my TW acoustic Raven one turntable. It did indeed give a clear, audible improvement in sound quality to my ears, better base definition in particular. This finding was despite my expecting nothing whatsoever. I think you can fool yourself you hear a benefit, when you want to sometimes, at least I can
Replacing the stock power cable of the TT
I have a heavily modified Rega planar 3.
Interconnect + weight + VTA adjuster + isolation domes were all replaced.
Recently I was amazed by how replacing the stock power cables of my stereo components with Kimber PK14 power cable boosted the sound quality. Every sound aspect was improved. To my humble opinion...the best value I ever gained for 200$.
So my question is ...
Will I get the same effect if I replace the 10 cents stock power cable of my TT with a Kimber one.
Don't worry about the complexity of the operation. After I successfully replaced the Interconnect of the Rega, replacing the power cable seems peanuts.
Actually my question is relevant for any TT:
Why do people keep the stock crap power cables of their turntable ? Are people deterred by the need to open the motor ?
