Hi,

How important is the quality of power cords in a high end system?

**Not at all.

Does it really make a difference in sound?

**Nope. I prove this regularly to people who are deluded into thinking that
it makes a difference. Follow my logic:

I use an amplifier which has no speaker relay protection systems. Therefore,
when it is unplugged, it can still deliver power to the speakers, for as
long as the main capacitor banks can supply it. The main filter caps total
250,000uF. This means the amplifier can deliver a handful of Watts for
several seconds. Plugging and unplugging the amp from the 240VAC mains
supply is inaudible to all listeners. Therefore, there can never be any
difference between power cords.
