power cords

[Forger]

<font color='#000000'>I'm shopping power cords for my receiver and sacd player. My question is should I plug them into my surge/conditioner or into the wall. The reason I ask is that the cords have filters as well as the surge/conditioner. Will this double filtering damp down sound too much. MY surge,Panamax 5300 does a fine job,but I'm in the tweeking stage now and have been swapping interconnects in and out looking for that last bit of detail. Little help guys.</font>

You should be cautious with exotic power cords as some can be more harmful then good. &nbsp;Filtering should be done at the outlet and in the hardware, not the cord! &nbsp;Unless the stock cord of your CD player is broken, there is little reason to change it.</font>
