ARC Ref 3 Power Cord


Hi, I was wondering if anyone has replace the stock power cord for the Arc Ref 3 with some other power cord and has found it to improve the preamps performance? I have replaced the power cords on most of my other components and I am thinking of doing the same with the Ref 3. If so, is there anything good out there without spending an arm and a leg on?

That Signal cable is below what the REF3 deserves. You have spent the money on a fine pre-amp and need to support it with a good cable. I would likely just stick with the stock cable over buying a cord in that price range.
ARC gear is voiced using Shunyata Anaconda Helix Alpha power cords. This is what I got when I bought Ref 3. I have tried several other PCs since, but still have the Anacondas.

I am very interested as to how you know that ARC gear is voiced using Shunyata Anaconda Helix Alpha power cords. Can you elaborate please.
Give Leonard a call at ARC. He told me that the stock ARC power cords are really good and they also use the snake cords with their equipment in-house. There seemed to be some preferences in which of the none-stock oily cords they preferred with different ARC equipment. Oneobgyn, the SR power cords may be a good fit for your system, give them a try and let us know.
