Belden ICONOCLAST Interconnects and Speaker Cabling

You may want to take a look at this thread and Galen’s response. At present Iconoclas is offering the BAV power cables and Galen is touting low DCR ground paths and the 10AWG conductors to minimize ground induced noise/hum. Also he highly recommends a properly installed 10 AWG 3 wire romex power feed from the electrical distribution box to the outlet(s) servicing your gear prior to spending on power cord upgrades. Minimizing DCR makes complete sense as do 10AWG home run feeds to your equipment. Personally I think there may be more to gained by taking it t the next step and experimenting with various power cords as many on the PS Audio forum have done. Make sure the selected power cords get the fundamentals right. Also keep in mind the power cord is to provide clean 60 hz ac power. In my opinion minimizing electrical interference can be a side benefit if done right; that the power supplies, components, and power sources are up to the task. Selection of various insulation types can add a slight level of RF frequency electrical interference attenuation if done properly.
