Hi Keef,
I plug my power amp in to my Denali to very good effect. There is quite a bit of noise on my AC lines (see video here: https://youtu.be/g2SAj7aKXGo)

I find it works well with a Delta PC powering the amp and the impressive capabilities of the Denali and its QR/BB device are fully evident with a Simga NR V2 powering the amp and a Sigma XC powering the Denali.

And, yes, I am a CJ man, too. Been a huge fan and advocate of their producs for many years.

Puma, I have been doing some research and thank you for excellent explanations, especially with the Sigma XC.

How stiff is the sigma XC? If I keep my rack in the center I need about seven feet to reach my dedicated plugs. Not much bend but some.

Or if I move my rack to the side wall my plugs are right there but my amps are out of reach of the PD. And I would be forever curious how they sound plugged into the PD.

This is a new Sigma NR V2, 2m coiled up as far as I can manage. The first 7 to 8" i just measured is straight to the wall for best results, the rest is as flexible as shown, so alot!

Hi Keef,
It is very, very flexible, as shown in Mark's photo above. It is much more flexible than, say, the older Black Mamba CX power cords from years back, which were smaller gauge.

Thanks Fellas! Some of these cords can be quite a PITA like the old PSA Statement was almost like a steel rod!

I am thinking about starting off with a Denali and Sigma XC to get the party started and then adding additional cords later.

Sounds like a good place to start.
