Any equipment that have a PSU that needs such a wire to work better it IMHO flawed.
In any other part of a system proper cables that match plays an important role. (I said proper, not always expensive)
Power cables should not make a difference. However they might do if the equipment is poorly designed.
But honestly those power cables are more an image than anything else. You just can't power your 100000$ amplifier with a 3$ cable. It would look wrong.
The marketing text is brilliant. Best laugh this morning.

Not only sound better but if you use them, they will make even s-video look like HD. 
You know what's really funny. How do you justify these ultra big buck power cables when they are plugged into fiddy cent a foot romex that is burried in everyones wall with all the noise that comes along with it.

Point taken Stefuel. That is why I only use audiophile grade receptacles, oxygen-free Romex rubbed on the thighs of virgins, circuit breakers with gold contacts, and have talked my local power company into a major upgrade of the transformers and switchgear and only buy free-range wind power electricity. I can tell you with complete certainty that it made a huge difference in the quality not only of my audio and video, but my sex life as well. I am breathless with anticipation for the delivery of my Peruvian volcanic rock video cable standoffs. No doubt that will top the bill!

I was a little skeptical of these claims until I had our local utility company upgrade our street drop transformer (Kryptonite core-solid silver windings) and rewire the street with zero-G molecularly aligned palladium interconnect (NOT "wire"!!)
the effect was instant and earth shaking, I have stopped working so that I can stay home and listen to my music.Even the old Sears console stereo sounds better!! the system is so efficient that my electric meter now runs backwards and every month the utility Co. sends me a cheque. I am now looking to buy a set of these for each of the G-7 leaders as my small effort to promote world peace.
sheesh

They also sell high end knives, forks and spoons made of solid gold and encrusted with various jewels. I'm thinking of trying them also in the hopes that they'll make my wifes cooking taste better.
But you know what they say, "I don't care what you shovel it with, $hit is $hit"

"The audition shows that the bearing capacity of current is
very high in the wire, it has obvious progress in the
acoustic fidelity and identifying capability, the music is
clearer. The whole frequency reflects quickly, sound field
is magnificent; especially the low frequency is deeper with
better flexibility."
You guys are thinking this stuff is funny but you just don't know. I bought one of these cables and pretty much all low frequency stuff is deeper and more flexable and I don't even have it plugged in on either side.

I wonder if I'd get the same tongue-in-cheek replies if I posted this at the A site in the 20K plus forum
It might be fun to try Does someone want to be a dirty bird and post a link there?

Yes, but that's a rather pessimistic way to look at it. I prefer to see it as a positive effect on infidelity.
