AC power cables that are not rigid?
Recently moved and am re-setting up my system. All of my AC power cables are Shunyata of various models and ages. The problem is that most of them are rigid as heck, creating a routing problem in my new set up. A couple are black, softer rubber that has some flexibility, or ability to coil to keep organized. But even those are rather large in diameter, making it difficult and messy. Not to mention the problem keeping the AC cables away from my audio interconnects. My situation is made worse as my set up at the old place needed longer AC cables, while my new place needs shorter ones, so I have “extra” lengths to deal with.
So can anyone recommend a brand or model of AC cable that is very flexible and easy to route behind my equipment? The current Shunyata were not the real expensive ones- I bought some new and some used, ranging from $250-$750 each, and would like to stay in the same price range used or new.
Thanks! Bill
Some from the list I tried… Audience AU24se variants or Studio One are very flexible Kimber PK14 base or Ascent (not as flexible as Audience but very maneuverable Shunyata Taipan Alhpa or Python Alpha, Shunyata Alpha V2 Fururech DPS-4.1 (not super flexible but maneuverable) Puritan Classic or Ultimate

+ 1 on Puritan Ultimate (but maybe outside your price range unless you can find them used). Also, Lavricables are thin and flexible. But super high quality. Lavricables grand-30-core-silver-mains power The Master line should be well within your desired price range. At shorter lengths, maybe even the Grand Line would still be in the range; it has even more conductors (30 vs 20) a bit thicker, but still very flexible i believe. I use the Master for a DAC; I’ve considered getting some Grands for amps, but have not pulled the trigger yet. (Been waiting for tariff situation to resolve.)
