Hi i just found a small cure for huge power consumption iMac 5K retina FYI.
I just tryid a bold gaged Luxman JPA-15000 power cord(which acctually made for 100W-1000W power amps.) for iMac 5K retina(about 120W power consumption), it much improved Stax HPs sound. surprised.
now any Stax HPs sounded much smoother and very musical.
I googled local sites which reported stock imac power cable is not so good. it sounds light/thin/bright etc. they said.
I measured iMac 5K retina power consumption by PS Audio power plant P3. it rapidly dynamicaly moving between about 80W-120W even when i dont touch mouse/keyboard.
Digital signals are accutually high FREQ analog signals. uneducated poeple dont know this simple fact. maybe iMac acts like big Class D power amp. so bold gaged power cords make diffrence? maybe.
hope this someones help.
cheers!
EDIT; i have read an interesting article which conclude directly out of walloutlet(cheapest) sounds best.
