Power Cord Flavors


Someone recently sent me an e-mail asking about warm and fullbodied power cords versus neutral, clear and extended power cords. I thought I'd post my opinion, and ask others to share theirs, too.

My system is tubes: VAC Phi 110/110, First Sound Presence Depuxe II, APL Denon 3910

Warm and full bodied in my system=
Purist Audio Dominus w/Fluid
Elrod EPS-3 Signature
Revelation Audio Precept
VH Audio Airsine

Neutral, clear and extended=
Shunyata Python and Anaconda
Electraglide Epiphany
Ridge Street Poiema!!!
Audio Indulgence Alpine Lace
TG Audio SLVR and 688
Z Squared
Absolute power cord

That's a scary list of power cords. I'm kind of shocked at how many I've owned and tried.

great thread indeed. I am using a combination of open and extended (electraglide epiphany) on my digital front end and preamp and also slighly sweeter, warmer (but not too sweet) on my power conditioner and Nagra VPA monoblock tubed amps - ISOCLEAN SUPER FOCUS - This one is a relative steal and you shoudl add it to your short-list, and a 6' length is "only" $1800 list.
To add to the fray, I am using a CRL FIM fold cord on my source, which provides a worm midrange thundering bass, and sweet highs!!!

O Dear. . . not again! Grant, I am afraid this is the 2nd time at least I call you Norm on these threads. Rather than sending you custom apologies each time, I should generate abject apologies automatically. Apologies once again!
