It is possible that a power cable will not make a difference on some systems... likely budget or low fidelity. But on high end system they make a huge difference, often on the level of speaker cables. The largest change is typically on power amps, but the difference on other components is also significant.
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
