Power Cords? Yes, I know; Power Cords should not make any difference. The power has come through miles of low grade wire, blah blah. But the fact of the matter is that they really do make a difference, and a pretty big one at that. Experimental data trumps any theory, especially banal ones that rely on ‘common sense’. In fact there’s more than just ‘current down a wire’ going on here. For a start there’s the rather strange load that a power amp typically presents. Somehow related to the music, but also not quite. Then there’s the fields – magnetic, electric – that both radiate into and out from the cord. But also you need to consider the effect that one component has on another, from the large current spikes that power amps draw, to the RF noise that digital gear makes.

Give one a try for 30 days and return it (if you can) for a refund.

Our new power cords are now in their third generation and has performance that seems astonishing to me at least. I feel sure that anyone trying a Black Magic power cord will stop thinking that power cords make no difference. All our power cords are hand made, with the cord itself constructed from copper wire with PTFE insulation, copper foil screening, hand wound. They may not look great but they sound fantastic.

Note : Our power cords are not for sale in New Zealand.
