That sounds good. Enjoy your drink, put on some good music and let the electrons flow whichever way they want.

Even if that means a "back EMF"?

That whole back EMF thing is way overrated. Mapleshade Audio was never afraid of it.

I too question this. Why is it that the speaker cable has greater impact than the interconnect? In my experience, the SC is more impactful upon SQ than the interconnect for sure. Since the interconnect carries a small, unamplified signal, wouldn’t it be more susceptible to signal degradation from a lesser cable?

I agree speaker cables too make a lot of difference, but not as much as power cables.

Is it silly to spend more money on a power cord that goes from the power “distributor” to the component than the component itself ??
