A certain online retailer asked me for a review of Pangea power cords..

Sad day in audiotown. The nay-sayers have invaded the place.. Like an infestation.

Yeah, sad day every day. More and more incompetent people trying to invade the place and space. This does make America great, no doubt.

Incompetent?   To whom are you referring, inna?

Love your posts madame.  Clearly you have good taste and relatively deep pockets.........No disrespect intended, this is a discussion.......Give me one real reason that an ultra power cord and/or magic outlet can and/or should make any difference to your amp/pre/cdp/TT..cat or dog.......Please don't say "because it does".....The stuff coming out of the wall is pretty consistent, a bit dirty perhaps, more so depending on where you live. When it hits your gear, which in your  case is very nice.....mine ain't so bad either......it gets filtered and regulated to the extent that the manufacturer deemed appropriate to GUARANTEE that his equipment will perform as designed for a given price point using the generic wall juice. Pretty much all high end gear is very well filtered and regulated because it's IMPORTANT and they know it..........If including, even as an option, an expensive power cord "upgrade", don't you think they'd be first in line? Come on Lady, I'm sure you're smarter than that. High end gear is ALL about sound.........and eye candy beyond a certain point. If an upgrade PC made any real or meaningful difference they'd ship it with one. Any of YOUR very nice gear come with a $500 PC or list of recommended outlets> I'm betting NOT.....if it MATTERED, it would have.

If YOU think you hear a difference and it makes you happy, it's your money and gear. Do what makes you happy, I do :)

I consider this, as well as any topic, simply a discussion and sharing of experience and opinions. It is not, nor likely ever to be, my intent to "dis" anybody, regardless of whether I agree with them or not..............A friend of mine has a favorite saying........."Nobody has a monopoly on the truth"....I respect that.

Hard to find two people who agree on much of ANYTHING in this hobby......maybe that's one of the reasons it's fun.

The plus is, the work is done. Between having others try out a high end duplex, or buy an aftermarket powercord.. they have already decided to try one.. I would say the effort is worth it. A few may decide the new toy is not going to do anything and return it. Others will discover new ways to improve the sound of their stereo. The naysayers can wander off and hibernate until the next thread extolling the virtues of good interconnects, or powercords, or what ever irks the nay-sayers into repopulating the threads attempting to put out the fire they cannot comprehend.Good Luck, I already am satisfied.
