Power Cable Suggestions.


I am looking for a new power cable. I am looking into spending anywhere from $300-$500. I am torn between a Furutech Astoria Plus, DH Labs Power plus/cryo and last but hopefully not least, CullenCable Cross Series II. I just learned about CullenCables today and they look very nice. This cable will be used to power up a Naim SN3 or REL T7i. There is Morrow Audio which currently has a 25% off on all their power cables. I need a power cable asap. Any help will be very appreaciated.

@stormofkit-kat86 i happen to have 1 Zavfino 1.5 meter Legion OFHC 11AWG Power Cable  and 1 Zavfino 1.5 Meter The Majestic MKII OCC Power Cable 12AWG that i am no longer using; both under 1 year old and in perfect condition. Great cable, but they ended up being surplus to my needs as I changed gear. 

Feel free to PM me, if you are interested in them.

"jasonborne71, when you make blanket comments as you do you from time to time, you don't help new people in our hobby evaluate how best to invest in their systems. I know you dis many tweeks, but it's not helpful without context. I looked for your system configuration, but I don't see one listed in your profile. That would be helpful so others could see in what type of a system you have judged highly engineered cables to be of no value above zip cord and pressed RCA Interconnects. Please consider listing you components and a description of your listening space in your profile."

That will never happen. I've seen quite a few of his posts, and I can tell you they have nothing to do with cables, or audio equipment for that matter. He's not a skeptic. What's going on here is a psych issue. He posts to feed his ego. He needs to confirm he's intelligent, not only for himself, but to others as well. Given his personality type, he can't list his equipment. If he did, it leaves him open to criticism. And that's the real issue. It doesn't matter what your system is, there's always going to be someone to criticize it. That's why his posts are always so vague. The second someone calls him out on something,"Well, that's not what I meant.", If its not something as simple or undeniable as 2+2=4, he won't put himself in a situation where someone can say he's wrong.     

Personally, I would buy direct from James Pappas, owner/designer of Wisdom Cable Technology. Have a conversation with him about your needs & goals. He will build you a premium quality power cable that will rival any of the hi-end brands at a fraction of the cost. Except for a pair of LessLoss Stellar power cables, I now have a complete loom of his PC’s & interconnects without spending a fortune. I couldn’t be happier with the results.

I use Cullen Cable Crossover Series PCs for my system (SPL Audio Director Mk2.2, SPL S900 powering my Ohm Acoustics 4900 SSCs, Lumin U2 Mini w/ LHY Audio Linear Power Supply, Leak CDT & Furman Elite 15i) & I am very pleased.  For the money, they are an affordable solution over OEM stock & they complement my system very nicely.  I also use his Crossover RCA ICs, Nitin Digital IC, Crossover XLR ICs & AES/EBU Digital ICs in my system.  I've tried comparably priced Silnote & Morrow Cable PCs & prefer the Cullens in my system. The owner is "hands on" the entire order, personally makes every cable (which sometimes creates a backlog) & provides great communication w/ the buyer.  Big bang for the buck.

I have DH Lab power cords for all my gear - do not need/want anything else; yes they made a difference when I replaced the standard stock ones. but took some time to break-in. The Cable Company was running a 25% discount for one month on all DH Lab cords/cables...the timing worked well. Synergistic Research makes great power cords; last weekend went to a demo by the founder/owner. He was introducing their new LogiQ system = ground breaking stuff using AI. All the cables, interconnects, and power cords were Synergistic Research - great listening session. https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=925303187157418

I have not used these Power Cords - but they look interesting & can not beat the price point. Anyone have these - seems all are built to order too = handcrafted? They would be worth looking at.
