Blind Test of Power Cords. Archived from groups: rec.audio.high-end () procedures and results here: interesting because, in this case, a reviewer (Jason Victor Serinus) who'd positively reviewed the 'sound' of expensive power cords ($2500 Nordost Valhalla...

wire + banana plugs Anyways, recently a freind of mine was selling a pair of audioquest power cords (their best) with "rf stoppers".. Being a sceptic of "power cords" making a difference, etc, I still wanted to try it out so he gave htem to me for...
