This video highlights the importance of high quality power cables in powering pre-amps and amplifiers/receivers. In the second part of the video we learn how to make our own high quality power cord!
ATTENTION!: If you want a safe cable you should connect the GROUND to the external SHIELD/braid. This will avoid electric shock.
SHIELDING: Due to continues skepticism I am adding an important video ([ Ссылка ]) released by Paul McGowan ho clearly states how shielding is negative for audio quality in power cords. PS Audio does add shielding but very very distant from the conductor, which makes sense. I say go all the way and if you do not have interference go with out any shielding. The audio signal will greatly improve.
