Advice needed: Have 2 Power Cables only need 1 - Which is better?


Hello All - I have 2 I think similar power cables for my Holo May KTE DAC.  I’ve tried both and like both but am trying to understand which one if either is higher end.  I believe they are BOTH versions of the Cardas Golden Reference Power Cord.  One of them is Running Springs Audio Mongoose and the other looks like a later generation Golden Reference.  Which would you keep?  Any experience with both?

How can someone who’s not heard your system or has no idea what you like can tell you which one of the two cables is better. The only person who would know that is you.

And if you ask my opinion I would sell both and buy a kimber pk ascent. 

@audphile1 - Totally agree.  I think my point which I could have stated better is that I'm "happy" with either but trying to determine if others have experience with both to make a "tie breaker" call.   I think the Mongoose has a bit more ease/liquidity, but with some small sacrifice of detail from the Cardas Golden.  Love them both and both better sadly than the newer Cardas cables at least to my DAC.

There's no objective difference with cords and cables, especially power cords, so sell the one to another sucker that will bring in the most $$$.
