What is the best order to upgrade a power cable loom? Thanks.


I'm about to upgrade my power cable loom from the out of the box, generic cables for two channel stereo.  I have been told the best order, or descending priority order, is first upgrade the power cord from the wall to the power distribution strip, then the pre-amp, then the integrated amp and last the turntable.   Please do you have any thoughts and/or experiences?  Specific thoughts and/or experiences with Nordost?  Thank you in advance! :-)

Glad you asked. There really is only one way to do this. Very important: Begin by unplugging the first power cord. Then plug in the second one. Some say its best to unplug both ends before connecting the new one. But I have found it works just as well to unplug and plug in one end, then repeat at the other end.

One more thing. You will hear people talk about directionality. This is not what they mean. Does not matter which end you plug or unplug first.
