What Cables Should I Upgrade First?

We recommend starting with the source components, working your way to the speakers. After that, start upgrading the power cords. As a detailed example, start first by replacing a source cable, like from a CD player to preamplifier. Next replace the cables from the preamp to power amp. Idealy, if finaces allow, replace these two together to have our cables in your system from source to power amplifier. Next, replace the speaker cables, then start upgrading the power cords, starting again with the source components. Replacing your cables in this order will realize the greatest sonic improvements and enjoyment as you complete each step.

The Equipment We Use To Evaluate Our Cables:

Designing and building cables is a tricky business, requiring just the right balance of gauge, wire type and dielectric. It would be foolish to test our designs on a mediocre system. At Morrow Audio, we have only the best in our listening/ testing room, insuring that whatever system our cables go into, that they should provide great satisfaction and musicality! You can see our listening room here.

Product Full Description

Our power cables use 12 gauge stranded Silver-coated Copper wire in multiple runs for each leg. All insulation is high grade Teflon, complete with Wattgate connectors. Heads above the rest for an affordable price.

The MAP3 Reference is the best power cable that we offer and has more runs of wire than is found in the MAP1 & MAP2. It is designed for current hungry power applications like power amplifiers but will also allow amazing detail retrieval when used with the most delicate turntable or CD player.

The MAP3 Reference, with many multiple runs of wire on each leg allows excellent power transfer and low impedance to the component it is used for. The serious audiophile will enjoy the powerful bass, detail, the huge soundstage, realism and resolution retrieval that the MAP3 offers.

What Are the Differences?
MAP1 Model: 6 total runs of wire.
MAP2 Model: 9 total runs of wire.
MAP3 Model: 12 total runs of wire.
MAP4 Model: 15 total runs of wire with reference connectors standard.
