What Power Cord can improve clarity and bass slam?

You guys have got to be kidding. The PAD 25th sells for 10K, yes a power cord for 10K! The BMI is listed here for a little over 4k deeply discounted from 14k. My whole system didn't even cost me 14k.

But wait it gets better, the listing for the PAD is full of grammatical errors. I hope that they take more care manufacturing the cables than they do marketing them.

Wait there is more, the price is not even the price you can call for the real price.

As Don-C55 mentioned where is the UL listing? There is no mention in the ad, no sign of any markings, just a lot tech flex and heat shrink.

And Finally the cord ships directly from the guys backyard. So do the BMI cords!

Someone is laughing...

@Dayglow, I hope for you sake that the cables that you put in-wall have the required UL certifications and are according to you local electrical code.

You can do a lot with 10k to increase clarity and bass slam, the last of which would be spending all on a power cord.

I want to make a correction, after checking the PAD website as a result of reading Sksos post I realized that my comment regarding the cables shipping from the guy's backyard was wrong. After checking the address on the web-site this clearly is not the case for PAD. BMI on the other hand is more questionable, as there is no business address just references to the company's popularity in Hong-Kong and Asia.

This doesn't change my overall disbelieve, why 10k on power cord to incremmentally improve the sound? 10k, can provide a great upgrade to pretty much any amp (or speaker or source). And if 10k is not enough to upgrade your amp because it is so high up the spectrum, then I ask why is it at the top of the spectrum, if its sound still needs to upgraded? I just don't get it?

@Audiolabyrinth, I am not suggesting that all expensive power cords are over priced. What I am saying is that I find it hard to believe that spending $10k on a power cord will provide the biggest bang for your buck for improving the sound.

As an example say you own an amp that is worth $10k and your not entirely satisfied with the sound you look at all the alternatives and you have determined that an upgraded amp would cost 5k more than what you have. Alternatively you could spend say 1k on power cable that would provide a similar benefit. Clearly the 1k power cord would be your best choice.

Now assume the cord cost 10x as much, clearly upgrading the amp becomes the better option.

Assuming my first scenario holds in general, then $10k power cords would only be sold to people owning $100K amplifiers. But now you must ask the question, if you pay $100k for an amp that amp must provide the absolute sound! If a power cord, $10k or $1K, can further improve the sound then where is the value in the amp?

Basically, in the cost is no object domain, when you buy a piece of gear it should be the absolute best and provide the absolute sound, the manufacturer should be tasked on finding every optimal sub component of the unit, be it power cords, power supplies, caps, resistors, whatever as long as it is optimal. If this is not the case then in my humble opinion something is wrong.
