Your response brings to mind a perfect example of how two power cords, both featuring the same materials and geometry except for the gauge of the conductors can actually affect how obvious and profound the difference in loudness may seem; again with all things being equal except the gauge of the current carrying conductors:
The 10 AWG Acrolink 7N-P4030 II and 14 AWG Acrolink 7N-P4020III are identical power cord designs except for the fact that the 7N-P4030 II features over twice the cross section of the smaller gauge 7N-P4020III. Other than one being a larger gauge power cord, they are identical.
Anyone can tell the difference when comparing them, since the smaller gauge product presents a notably smaller scale soundstage (but with excellent focus), less forward image projection, leaner tonality, less dynamic drive, and most important to this topic, the sense of how loud the presentation seems via the 10 AWG power cord vs. the 14 AWG power cord, even for use with low-current source components. The difference is undeniably obvious, IME.
