Hearing is believing?........power cables.......


For anyone who is skeptical about the difference a high quality power cord can make in your high quality audio system........try it.......hearing is believing. About 10 years ago when I bought my first "entry level" hifi system (B&K amp/preamp, Canton speakers) my audio advisor dropped off a Tara Labs Prism power cord. He said just try it for a week and if you don't think it makes a difference just return it. I, like most unfamiliar with high quality cables, was skeptical.......how could a cable 1 meter long from the wall to my equipment make a difference? I put it on the power amp and yes I could definitely tell there was a more defined bass and overall clearer soundscape. I'm a musicians, so I figured maybe the "non audiophile" can't hear the difference. So my brother-in-law who is a bricklayer came over and we did a blind listening test. I randomly switched the Tara, sometimes trying to fool him......told him I switched but didn't........he could tell every time I used the Tara! So I was convinced that it was "wishful thinking on my part or particularly sensitive ears. If you don't think a great power cable can make a difference........take the challenge. Try one for a week and see (hear) for yourself!

Schubert--Shadorne likely gets a hefty daily aural dividend. What Rolex did you review that led you to that conclusion? Was it just looking at statistical time-keeping accuracy of a typical automatic movement v. typical battery-powered quartz? Or was it based on a comparison with something like, say, an Omega moonwatch? Or just hate the perceived injustice of it all.

There’s probably some kind of analogy someone could make, here, if no one has already...perhaps likening tubes/vinyl to automatic/mechanical and digital to quartz.


Shadorne--just a Datejust, here, but wouldn’t trade the hunk o' junk for a power cable.

Hey Schubert, which one is Richard Farnsworth and Wilford Brimley?
You or me?😀
I can never see myself as Robert Redford.
