What power cord are TW Acustic TT owners using?


Hi guys! I ordered a Raven One from Jeff at High Water Sound and it should be arriving soon. I've had no experience with power cords for turntables as my previous ones have all had captive cords. System is CJ-PV5 preamp, Belles 300A power amp, Unity Audio Sig One speakers, Wadia 830 cd player, Analysis Plus Oval-9 speaker wires, Harmonic Tech Pro Silway-3 interconnects. Any thoughts on PC's in the $300 to $500 range would be gratefully appreciated. Oh, the Raven One will have a 12 inch Ortofon arm and Dynavector 20X cart. Thanks in advance!--Mrmitch

Just to add a new note, I've made a few changes since the last posting. My preamp now is a Joule Electra LA-150 Mk2 and the new Fosgate tube phono stage with Purist Audio Venustas IC's between the Fosgate and the Joule. These changes have made an incredible difference in the music! Next step is to get new speaker cables, thinking of sticking with Purist Audio as now that I have the Venustas in the chain and my speakers are internally wired with Purist, it might be the way to go. Thanks again to all who have contributed and thanks again to Jeff!--Mrmitch
Thanks for your responses so far! I had been thinking along the lines that a power cord for a non-high current piece of equipment shouldnt matter that much and you've pretty much confirmed that. Budget constraints mean I will have to go with the Dynavector cart for now, but when more funds are available, a better cartridge is on my list. Thanks to Ebm too for his view of Electraglide.--Mrmitch
Thanks again for your replies! And thank you Jaspert for sharing your knowledge and experience. I had read your experience with the ring and weights in another thread, sounds like something to investigate. Jeff e-mailed me yesterday to tell me he is throwing in a power cord gratis, you can't beat that. My experience with him so far has been nothing but exemplary.--Mrmitch
Just wanted to add to the thread that I took delivery of my Raven One yesterday-Incredible! We listened to records all night and the music was so amazing. I cant thank Jeff Catalano enough for everything he did to make the experience a straightforward and pleasant one. We went to his place to pick the turntable up and he never made us feel like he was pressed for time-- we listened to our turntable there. The renovations he did himself on his place showed first rate workmanship with the same care he takes with his audio equipment and music. Thanks again for your help, and my mind has been changed on the power cord issue-using a Gutwire Jeff gave me until the Shunyata I ordered comes in.--Mrmitch
