If the cord is really better, then one would suspect that all the untoward frequencies are sneaking into the device would vanish?
Yeah, by magic, I guess. Remind me, weren’t you the one making such a big deal about taking alternative views seriously? That what you call this little outburst?
And one would also suspect that the 50 or 60 Hz would be booming out of the device if its power supply was not removing it.
Another one.
But most of the power supplies are supplying DC.
No, all of the power supplies are supplying DC. So?
What happens is, incoming AC is converted to DC via diode rectifiers. These devices allow current to pass one way only. AC being alternating this means the diodes must constantly switch on and off. This never happens perfectly smoothly. You want measurements, you can find measurements of exactly how fast and smooth diodes do this.
Their DC output then gets stored in the power supply caps. Because all components draw power in very fast transient surges, but we want them to get the same power no matter the surge, so we store it in caps. Caps are also often times called smoothing caps, because they smooth out whatever varying current is going through them.
Remember the diode switching smoothness? Turns out even a lot of capacitance cannot ever completely eliminate this. There is always ripple on the DC output. Another one you can measure.
Or you can do what those of us in touch with reality do, and try it and hear for yourself. Then you will know what you are talking about and not be reduced to schoolyard taunts.
“Detached” sometimes is followed by the phrase “with reality”
You said it. The one thing you got right. Never too late to try and get in touch with it.
