      none of the above.

      I prefer lamp cord. It's cheap and readily available at Home Depot. connectors are in the electrical isle one isle over from the wire.

        I bet the colorful one costs more, not because it's better, but because it's colorful...

          wait, isn't the real question, does either actually carry electricity??

          I know I'd prefer the one that's plugged in and playing sweet music on the system!

              What kind of fuel line do you prefer, the clear one where you can see the gas flow or the black one that gets all baked and crusty?

                I prefer the braided fuel line. (its a racer thing, I didnt say I prefer the braided power coard though. )
                I wasnt hoping for this to to turn into some big scientific research nor do I think its that big of a deal.

                Just trying to have a little fun, and when I had the two next to each other I had my own opinon, and was curious to what other would think right off the bat also.

                I know, its how they perform, not how they look.
                (after all its "just" an outlet plug.)

                oh well.

                  Looks better? The colorful one. Works better? That would be decided after a year-long series of quintuple-blind tests taken during various weather, tide and political conditions, all monitored by a mixed panel of Republicans, Democrats and Independents, and funded from a "black" account owned by the NSA.

                        I don't think it really matters as long as you bi-wire from your wall outlet onwards.

                          Race Car Driver,

                          I love your poll... :T ...and also the pictures.....

                          From all the posts, I think that a very clear message comes out here. Our "cleverness" when it comes to audio gear......we seem to know it all, but when confronted with such a simple task, we are rather embarrased to give our opinions in fear of sounding stupid..... :B
                          Regards :T,
