Hi all. I just bought a Pure I20 to play the musics from my Ipod through my strereo system (DAC + amp). I was wondering if there is a better power cable for it because the original one looks soo cheap. Im sure a good replacement will also bring more audio quality.

I saw this pack option (power supply + huge power cable) but it is soo pricey :

Let me know if there is another option for that.

- does the one you have now supply power to the unit? if so, then you are good to go....

- the "you are kidding" was in reference to your sureness of "more audio quality"...

Thank you guys. So you are saying cable is not that important. Isn't it? Its not only about an Ipod dock system. I got some "hi end" units ( Elac BS 244 speaker + W4S DAC 1 upgrated + W4S amp STI-500 + Oppo 93 BDP) . I also have good cables ( Solstice 6 speaker cable + Wyreworld Starlite 6 digital cable) so thats why Im looking for quality and not only a simple way to play the musics from my Ipod.

Anyway, if you guys have that opnion , ok, I respect, but Im sure the cables are important as well.

You're right, the cables are important. Purchasing them makes measurable improvements in the bank accounts of their manufacturers.

Come on. Thats insane. Im not saying you need to buy 10K cables..etc..Im not stupid like that. However of course there is a big difference from a 5 usd cable and another one which is free oxygen.. pure copper...etc.
The same with speakers. You can't compare a Proac.. B&W.. Dali.. Dynaudio..etc.. to JBL...Bose..etc..

Anyway, thank you all for the answers.

Of course there are differences in speakers. But to say there are big differences in cables? What do you think a cable does, anyway?

it is a huge leap of (unsupported) logic to compare wire to speakers...

my entire system is glued together with inexpensive monoprice and tartan cables (along with monoprice speaker wire)... said system, fwiw, is far from low end...

to use your own words, it would be insane to do otherwise...

I noticed the OP has brought this topic to Audiogon. I am sure he will get lots of recommendations there.
