In Reply to: There really isn't an answer "I want to hear". posted by hcman on May 6, 2010 at 09:42:55:
Materials, connectors and construction can be such that they inhibit a power cords ability to respond to changes in current demand.The reason I ask you why is because as audiophiles we don't need to know why and in all reality what we know or believe is going to be highly questionable in fact.
All we really need to know is if we consider the sonic differences heard as being improvements in our system.
Whatever conclusion we reach is a solution particular to our own application not one that we should expect to be repeatable in other situations.
We may believe the cord or wire we buy sounds better because it's silver or rejects EMI or whatever but the truth of the matter is that it might actually sound better because of construction or connector type. In fact it might actually sound better because it allows some degree of distortion instead of inhibiting it.
My point here is that stereo itself is a fairly fuzzy notion in the first place - there's no reason at all to consider that something has to be objectively bettter in order to improve our subjective take on performance.
We don't have to burden ourselves with the technology, which for all practical purposes is indistinquishable from marketing literature.
We need to learn how to trust our ears.
