Power cords known to produce good bass


All the cable naysayers and deniers please step aside. We have heard your opinions more than enough already. Thank you.

Tell me if this train of thought is off base or not. I am observing that power cords made with a high strand count of fine gauge high purity wire can be very resolving, very refined sounding and very smooth sounding but, they do not provide good bass. Usually true? Yes or No?

Here's a couple of examples of power cord wire that I find fit the above description. Furutech FP-TCS21 and FP-SO22N, Acrolink 6NP4030 and 7NP4030 II. These are cables that are or were available in bulk for DIY application. I have pretty much done all the DIY cables that can be made using the ready made bulk wire that is on the market. 

Across three systems, I do have a lot of Transparent Audio power cords from the mm2 generation and the Gen 5 generation. All of them are re-terminated by me with Oyaide 004 cord ends.

I'm now looking for opinions about which other manufactured power cords are thought to have good bass. In particular I want to try something to go between the wall receptacles and power conditioners. At present I have two of the Acrolink 7NP40430 II cords in that position. High resolution but bass could be better.

Unfortunately, due to my hearing condition that is called hyperacusis, I'm extremely sensitive to brightness, harshness, shrillness, etc. etc., which means it is no dice on silver wire and most plated cord ends. Other than the Oyaide 004 ends, all of my cord ends and receptacles are un-plated copper.

So, any suggestions will be appreciated.

Wavetouch Power cord produces a good bass. My WT speaker equips a 5.25" woofer and I don't crave more bass and am satisfied.

The fatter the wire, the lower the bass…. I thought we all learned this the last time that we discussed power cords.

I tend to agree with @raysmtb1 about wire size on this one, although the speakers and the amplifiers driving them will have a larger impact than the PC, IMO.  You might try Triode Wire Labs Seven Plus, which is a 7awg power cord.  However if you really want good bass, the addition of two or more well-positioned and integrated subs will do much more to get you there. 

BTW, the TWL American Series cables are constructed using something similar to Western Electric stranded tinned copper wire, which many describe as having a rich midrange and full-sounding bass and so might help with your sensitivity to "brightness, harshness, shrillness", particularly in the higher frequencies.  Also, equipment with a well-designed and constructed power supply is IME less susceptible to those undesirable attributes.

The only power cord that increases bass is the one connected to a subwoofer.
