Accuphase AC power cord
In Europe, even top Accuphase components such as e.g. C-3850 pre amps are delivered with a low budget AC power cord. The reason is that any power cable for the European market has to be certified according to specific EU regulations, a costly process.
Question to the Accuphase friends outside of Europe: what kind of power cords are delivered with your components. Are there different quality levels in Accuphase power cords? Jörg |

Do owners swap the supplied mains leads with "audiophile" product?

The power cord is certainly more than sufficient for the component that I own since its power requirements is all of 24 watts. |
I've found this one https://www.ebay.com/itm/Accuphase-4...880?rmvSB=true
It's not an Accuphase cable, but looks much better as the cheap ones... |

Ditto. I tried both, and the difference was not subtle. Even my wife admitted the difference (she was bored by the entire endeavor, but heard the difference).

Unfortunately the power chords had a big impact on the sound of my Accuphase E600 as well.
I had the most success with Nordost (Heimdall 2, Frey 2, Tyr 2). The generic supplied cord was ok. A Furutech Alpha 3 did not work well with the Accuphase. Overall the power cord did affect dynamic, flow, detail and openness of the sound. |
