Zenwave PSR power cables on my preamp and phono stage. They are incredibly revealing and very neutral. On my Pass amp, I use a Zenwave PCR cable. Also very revealing, but just a slight bit of warmth that the silver cables don’t have. |
@rsf507 in both demos the set up was pretty simple, I like simple and streamlined systems. He had a PS audio Stellar Strata MK2, being fed by a streaming unit (forgot what brand or unit), paired with Paradigm Persona 5F's. I chose a familiar track (to me), and he played the track with an Audio Quest Monsson AC cable. He would then shut down the amp, replace the AQ with his, turn the amp back on and play the same track. The differences I heard were subtle, but noted. My wife who is not one of us had some comments. There appeared to me to be more focused sound overall, increased clarity, more open as well. Another listener said something to the effect that he could hear some reflection of drums within the studio recording. I wasn't necessarily paying attention to that. |
I am a DIY'er and that included assembling my own power cables over the years, usually with Furutech FP-SO22N Nano AuAg 14AWG cable and their F11 N1 connectors. That was my preference until a friend made some changes on her rig that now gets power via Emotiva XIEC-2 meter cables. I was impressed with the value, build quality and clean sound from her components. Rather then me going into detail just here check them out at and see what you think. Enjoy the music.
