Can a power cord increase the resolution of an Class D (SMPS) amp by more than 5% ?

Quiz answer,
Usb and or hdmi in my system.

Oops forgot the dc pwr cables powering my Network devices.

Any frequency other than zero Hz is AC, in that the direction of the current alternates at some rate. Digital signals and analog audio signals both contain a mix of many non-zero frequency components that are simultaneously present. Certain digital signals may have a significant DC component in addition to their AC frequency components, an example being USB signals which have one of their two voltage states at or near zero, and the other at some positive voltage. But a signal having both DC and AC components is nevertheless "operating in an AC circuit," it seems to me.

So the only audio-related cables I can think of which are "not operating in an AC circuit" are cables conducting the outputs of DC power supplies that are external to the component being powered.

Al,

This is how I have always understood this too but I may be wrong or missing something also.

As always Thank’s for your well explained statements,

""I am wondering where Elizabeth is getting her numbers from 2% not 5% for a power cord. ""

"might have gotten me a mystery and total snatched out of thin air 2% not close to the mythical 5%. "
I you read it, You can see I used the words mystery, snatched out of thin air." What more could I write to say where I got that?

Let’s see. The unicorn told me? Maybe I invented it? The Elves? Perhaps for just this discussion I pulled number right out of my bung hole!
When one discusses the impossible, all things may be true.

Fist off the op using the magic of a percentage of a fantasy calculation. Not that cords do nothing, rather the arbitrary percentage of judging how much any ’improvement’ means. It is all subjective.

I find the reality is we mostly overstate improvements. SO I tried to be more objective, and cut down the puffed up numbers.
Like my new 20.7 Magnepans are certainly better than the 3.6 I owned.
What percentage? based on what criteria? Applying a number is horse feathers.
