Sorry for this....but I had to post. How can anybody in their right mind pay $7000 for a 6ft power cable.....
Is there any empirical evidence to show that such a cable would be sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much better than stock? wow!!! http://www.amazon.com/AudioQuest-NRG-WEL-S...s/dp/B0055OM9WS This post has been edited by ron spencer: Jun 1 2012, 19:27 |

I guess that the worst problem is that if any equipment actually DOES work better with one of these fancy cables, one can reach only one conclusion, that being that the power supply needs help.

That consequence is the result of mere logical thinking. In the eyes of your typical high end audiophile true believer, any equipment that performs in an audibly degraded way due to anything but perfect power, has "Superior resolving power and detail". Sad but IME, true. |
