Hi all-

I am using the KGSS with the Omega II's and really loving it. Currently, I am using the Cardas Twinling power cord ($130). I would like to stay within the Cardas family, if at all possible and I am wondering if any of their more upscale power cords might be a better match with the KGSS? Any power cords suggestions regarding this?

Thanks so much,

Jay

OT: But how do power cords actually effect the sound of an amp? Thanks.


Depends on the power supply design, and how (electrically) noisy your living environment is.

Most amps have poorly designed PSUs, which is why power cords can make an audible difference.

There is nothing fancy about rhodium plated plugs, it is very similar to the nickel plating, also most of the rhodium platings are done over a previous nickel platings first...
