Why do I need power management if I have a great power cord?


Isn't it kind of unnecessary to additionally add a power conditioner if I have an expensive audio file grade Power cord connected to a component?

So you buy a Power conditioner from a hi-fi store and they say oh, you need a really good power cord to go with that and then another one to go from conditioner to the component. Do you need it all and why? Seems the last couple of feet before the component should be more than enough.

Isn't it curious how one side says:  I hear things 👍🏼 and the other side calls those people stupid.

I will just throw this into the mix. If you take a look at the box that contains your circuit breakers for the house you will probably find that all the lines that run through your house have 12 gauge copper wire. So explain to me why anyone would think that they need 10 gauge or thicker running the last couple of feet from the plug to the amplifier.

@raysmtb1,

Residential homes in the US are 250/125 volts single phase split running a 250 volt branch circuit 2 pole 3 wire is balanced voltage or load.

Because when you do it, a good audio system sounds better. 
 

How do I know this? I have tried it multiple times on different iterations of my system over the last twenty years or so of my fifty years in pursuit of great sound. You can see my systems under my ID.
