Power Cable Suggestions - Budget

With your high-end quality build BRYSTONs their audio performance will improve with better power cords.Why? They are built like tanks with robust power supplies.

You kinda nailed it wherein your any better / quality build PCs still plugged into a junk cheap power strip is largely a huge limiter, dare I say, a waste.

budgets always matter … sure … but IMO your budget needs to roughly double for three to four units that will include any quality budget strata power strip equipped with hospital grade plugs and fed by a quality gauge cable.

At an entry level price point for pre-owned PCs, ..say $150-ish, then its generally a “just pick one of ‘em” exercise without major performance variables between your many choices. A dedicated power line is intuitively something to plan for L-T, after which upgrades with matched performance tick-ups can be considered.

Get an electrician to run a dedicated line, put a better than $2 buck outlet=about the same for a "better power cord.

After that, go nuts figuring out "what the best pc?"

I recently picked up several W Audio power cords on Amazon and noted a nice difference with my amplifier.  I think it's about the most affordable way to get your feet wet in the world of power cords, the results might be shocking for you.

Yes the guy sells Power Cords but that is not the point.

Start with your sources not your amp.

peterhodo57 in that price range you should reach out to Chris Venhaus https://www.vhaudio.com/

He rolled a couple custom Furutech cords for me in that price range and they sound great he's a pleasure to work with as well.
