Audioquest Storm Series power cables
I have been reading about Audioquest storm series here at Agon since they were released unfortunately they are so expensive and never bother to take them seriously. I like their mid price ic and speakers cables especially their old model.This past weekend Music Direct has warehouse sales demo and returns, I spoke to the rep ask for a good deal for three pc 2 hurricane High current 1 meter , one 2 m tornado high current pc.Bless to have a good deal. Hurricane went to my Plinius amp, one hurricane pc connected to my Ruby sacd player, tornado pc connected to my power conditioner, Indeed the musical impact did to both system is amazing , I will try to update after 50 hrs.
The AQ Storm is not inexpensive, but you can buy used and save a bit of coin. I heard them at Audioconnection when they came out. Yes, they really made a significant difference in sound reproduction (and, mind you, I never thought a power cable would affect sound quality, until then). Both I, and @ctsooner, heard what the could do. It was, and I kinda hate the expression, mindblowing. Bob |
westcoastaudiophile states... "I did compare expensive heavy $500 power cord with built-in ferritic RF noise filter clamp" The power cord (cable) you describe above sounds old & awful. A modern well designed high end power cable simply wouldn’t have the "built-in ferritic RF noise filter clamp". Have you tried any other aftermarket power cords against "stock" component cords? |
You say you've done AB testing. If you've done it properly, single or double blind, then @ghdprentice is being unfair to you. I suspect a tiny percentage of AG members have done that. And yet it's the only way of verifying that any changed perception of sound is not imagination. Any other listening results are totally invalid. Although they might give the listener a nice (& expensive) feeling. |
