Power Cables

[Mikeeo]

The S:as I tried (can't remember which ones but not so high on their range) didn't do anything in my system (before Dev though). PC are something that work or not for me and of course, ears, system etc just will tell if it is a match or not.
With regards to the Petite being not so Petite it is just a name, logically though, for Sablons entry PC. Even if it is 7 AWG it is very flexible and much more so than the JPS Kaptovator (8 AWG) and some 10 AWG I have. What I noticed with PC's is that it is the outer cover or shielding/fillers that makes a pc stiff and hard to handle and not so much the AWG.

Keep on testing and enjoying the 'right' gear/Mike

Still don't understand why you need 7 AWG power cables on a devise with a factory rating of 6.0 amps at 100-120V and 2.8 amps at 220-240v.

The stock power cord is 18 AWG.

Unless your power cables are longer than 50 feet, you don't need a 7 AWG power cable to deliver 6.0 amps at 100-120V or 2.8 amps at 220-240v.

Hi,

For what it matters I do not care if something is made out of jelly beans or what ever and something is 7 or 18 of this or that as long as it does something of a positive impact in my system. In particular power cords serve no sense or logical meaning as such and I gave up some time ago to be rational about this. The proof is in the pudding, try and see (hear) what you think. Many persons I know including one of my friends who is a professional musician no longer deny the effect of the 'right' PC in a system.

Cheers/Mike

Thanks.

I have no desire to lay out $1500.US to try the "Petite" 7 AWG Sablons on my 400.

I'm going to build some PCs with Nanotec Systems #308 cable and Cardas plugs/IECs.

Maybe I can fit some jelly beans inside the connectors. ;-)

Great to hear! Well for me the outlay was worth it (even if I think we many times pay ridiculous amount of money on this hobby) in comparison to what the JPS Kaptovators cost per one PC. Just the Schuko and IEC plugs costs 830 USD for consumer so there you have a lot of the cost that is baked into the total cost. Plugs I have found to make a big difference even in mains applications and the Oyaide 004 stand above the rest I tried.
Please report back on your findings with Nanotech Cardas combination, the more input and cost effective solutions the better.

Jelly beans are magical/Mike
