The MusicCord Pro is an AC power cord designed to enhance audio performance, and uses patented, multi-conductor power cordage geometry. According to Essential Sound, the multiple-conductor design “eliminates phase distortions and allows faster current delivery.” For certain, the cord manifests a superior quality of construction and design—using custom-molded IEC connectors and plugs, braided copper shielding, conductors soldered and crimped to the pins, etc.
The question on everyone’s mind when a subject like this comes up is: does it really make a difference? For me, there were two stages to answering this question. Before I tested it, one of our resident gearheads summed things up by pointing to the inexpensive power cord I was holding for the sake of physical comparison, saying, “You’re going to plug a $3,000 guitar into a $3,000 amp. Which AC cord to you think is going make you wonder if you could’ve done better?” Good point.
