How to upgrade "power cord" on turntable with wall wart?


Hello, I am in the process of upgrading the power cords on my components. 
Is there a way to upgrade the power cord on my Pro-ject 12 Xtension TT ?   
 It has the skimpy wall wart.

Thanks

The OP has a $5K table that can't keep maintain a reasonably steady 33.3, as is-stock?

I would demand a refund.


lewm, I’ll admit that if you redefine outside the signal path to mean in the signal path then yes, you are right. Word games aside the point is all these things really do matter. And not subtle, but a lot.

OP- full disclosure. When talking about platter, plinth, motor, bearing, motor housing, etc. and saying "all these things matter" there is the possibility of misunderstanding. "All these things matter" not because someone said somewhere once upon a time. "All these things matter" because they have each and every one been tried, one at a time, and been shown to matter. Its how the Miller Carbon Turntable was built.

It makes a difference. When I bought my Technics SL1200G I started with the supplied power cable. I had Rob Fritz from Audio Art build me a cable for the turntable. Once I inserted it into the system, there was an immediate and noticeable increase in PRAT. Going back to the stock cord, the PRAT diminished noticeably.

Please notice OP there is a pattern. Those who have actually tried and done all say it matters because they know from experience it matters. Those who have not done make grand pronouncements devoid of any actual knowledge, let alone experience. Its rote repetition. Repetition without comprehension. The proper response to them is, "Polly wanna cracker?" As opposed to stereo5 and me to whom its, "Well now, good to know, I will have to look into that. Thanks!"

Speaking about turntable power cable in general
Not sure about US standards, but could you explain how a short piece of POWER cable connected to TURNTABLE compensate for x100 times longer cheap power cable going from the wall outlet somewhere outside of my flat and connected to console in my house where we have 14 apartments on 7 floors. Why the last piece (1m) of power cable is important for turntable while another 100m of power cable is not important?

Thick cable that you have with your desktop computer is bad? Cable of the same thickness hidden in the walls in our flats. So to improve a 100m cable you just have to add 1m of different cable on one end according to this logic? And this is the cable that just supply voltage to turntable motor that rotate the platter.

I just don’t get it. Maybe i’m stupid?

I use all my turntables with stock power cables, i have expensive power cables for some of my amps, preamps. Manufacturers supply regular power cables. BTW I’ve seen the power cable behind my wall outlet.

I can get the idea of power conditioners and pure energy devices, but why 1m of a better cable connected to 100m of conventional power cable makes any difference? Please explain this phenomena.

Would you like to replace another 100m of the power cable behind your wall outlet then, and how far you can go ?
