Faster and less noisy impulse current delivery?
Why does the bass become so pronounced with after-market power products?
A good power cord should deliver power with less noise into the system circuit. This will improve the quality of the bass and overall system sound.Why does the bass become so pronounced with after-market power products?
Hello David and good afternoon to you. I understand what you are saying *but* wouldn't the additional current flow from proper connections (as in a PC) naturally produce deeper bass and not just extra bottom....or as you say, "coloration"?

Maybe because bass is what people think power cords improve. By paying attention to it they then hear its details that were always there but not captured in our memory/perception.Why does the bass become so pronounced with after-market power products?
How do you know there is less current? Or is current one of those attributes that you think can't be measured?Bass can have interesting change to less current response, or what I'd call loss of phase, due to feedback. Feedback can swing between overly punchy but flat to bulbous. Class D is usually the overly punchy but flat one; less than organic.
No, it is the opposite. Everyone is born with the same human abilities. You cannot override those no matter how great you think you are. What is retarded is to think that all the variables that go into your perception are under your control. They are not."Everyone is basically retarded" good addition Amir...

Wow, David. Our experiences can not differ further.
Tom
They have a different sound? Which one is the more neutral, less colored?
Aren't you an engineer? If so, why won't you use your engineering experience to measure and thereby, confirm your hypothesis?Measuring current is possible. I've never, ever, seen someone do it in such a way that it was relevant to audio playback for phase. I don't know if the equipment is sensitive enough to make it worth it, either. It would probably require some fascinating software for high quality evaluation.
Hi Tom,
I've read the same claims you're talking about, power draw is a question of wire gauge and IME experience 14 gauge is more than enough for most amplifiers but of course you can buy smaller gauges if you want to. As far connections go you can't beat a well made industrially soldered corded with moulded plugs compared to hand tightened plugs,

Not only that, a softer moulded IEC with a light flexible cord attached can give you a nice snug fit, compare to a loose fitting hard plastic with some heavy unbending anaconda attached tugging away at both ends.
