WAudio Hi-End Hifi Audio AC Power Cable, US Plug - 3.3ft (1m)

I installed 2 of these in my system. 1 on my amp and the other on my CD/DAC. I also installed a 2 meter WAudio cable at the same time on my pre-amp's power supply. As the CD/DAC is only a week old and I also changed all my interconnects recently, I probably will never really be able to tell if the power cords really make any difference to the sound. It will take weeks yet before the system settles down and all the cables, cords and the CD/DAC complete their burn-in. The only way to really know would be to do some swapping of the old and the new cords in a couple of months and see if there is any noticeable difference. What I seemed to hear immediately after installing them was deeper, tighter, more powerful bass. Not crazy amounts but noticeable. I think this can safely be considered as due to the power cords. Workmanship is excellant and the cords are visually very nice. I think they are heavier than really necessary unless you want to weld with them. :) The connectors seem to be solid copper and are not plated. The only negative notes are that as the plugs are rather massive, I had trouble trying to flip the power switch on the CD/DAC as the plug was covering most of it. Due to the size of the wires, the cable is a little stiff and also hard to twist to get the plugs into receptacles. All in all, I think these are a bargain and I'd recommend them to anyone that doesn't want to drop $500 on a power cord.

I've purchased two of these and they work great. This cord is extremely well made and is visually attractive as well. It uses 99.99 % oxygen-free copper which is about as good as it gets without paying for exotic wire with silver or other precious metals that do nothing to improve operation, just add cost. Some even mention using 24k gold (copper is a better conductor than gold!) as an improvement over copper. Moreover, the blades of the wall plug of this cord are copper or copper plated for improved conductivity, although most receptacles use inferior metals in their contacts. Some audiophiles insist on spending thousands for a power cord that claims to improve the sound. Absolute malarkey. The only important factors in a power cord are 1) adequate conductor size to handle the required current, 2) the length of the wire (which increases its resistance), and 3) the use of high-quality copper wire (not 'diluted' copper/aluminum wire). This cable employs 10 AWG copper wire, which will accommodate 30 A continuous current. Considering that the typical household receptacle is only rated for 15 A, this cable can easily handle twice the constant current that is available from the wall receptacle! Moreover, even 10' long by no means has excessive resistivity for use as a power cord for relatively low-powered audio equipment. Some manufacturers wax poetic about the shielding characteristics of their power cords. Shielding in a power cord is only a concern if one lives in an area with large amounts of radiated power, e.g., under a power transmission line. That said, these cords have both copper foil and braiding for shielding that should be more than effective unless you live next door to a power substation. The only 'downside' I've found with these cords is the size and heft of the IEC plug and its ability to fit into the rear panel of some equipment with limited space layouts. I guarantee that in a blind A/B test, not even the most discerning audiophile could tell the difference between this and a high price alternative beyond random chance. Don't waste your money on exorbitantly priced power cords based on the manufacturer's or a magazine reviewer's hype. They are both, after all, in business to make money. Further, many of the expensive power cords are made in China (for example, Cardas) and could possibly come out of the same factor as these!

Es un cable de muy buena calidad y funciona muy bien. Sus extremos no son pesados y se sostienen correctamente al ser enchufados. Su flexibilidad y rigidez son equilibradas y esto permite que sea acomodado fácilmente en espacios reducidos. Llegó antes de la fecha y muy bien empacado.

Plugged this anaconda in and let 'er rip. Did I notice a change? Time will tell...thicker power cables are audiophile voodoo but I am sure with the amount of copper in this cable it MUST be better? A great value for the money I think. Constructed well.

I ordered 2 of these cables to give them a try, and quickly ordered 2 more for the rest of my equipment. Right of the bat, i noticed how solid of a sound i was getting. Also noticed how snug the plugs were, and the quality of the build. I was very skeptical of if i would notice any difference, ans all i can say, is well worth the money spent. Update 3-3-2019 After using these powercords on amp, processor, transport, subs, and power conditioners, i can say these cords are by far a great cord. Many will say they are cheap, and sure dollar wise they are, but the are built like tanks, and grab ones attention in looks. I spent 5 hours yesterday at a local dealer, we compared the cord to a large brand name's cables. From their 75.00 all the way up to there 1000.00 cable. And after the 5 hours, both me and the dealer agreed, the audio cable wins. During the demo we switched from a home theater room, to a 2 channel room. We used several different pre amps and amps to do the demo. And on all applications we both felt the waudio cable gave more depth, more detail, and had better dynamics. We used, classical, rock, edm, and vocal music. There were instruments that just had a more natural realistic reproductions of sound. I was prepare to spent thousands if the big name cables sounded better, and since they didnt, i got a huge upgrade in my surround speakers with the money i saved on these cables. My suggestion buy them, because i plan on buying them for everything i own.
