DCCA PC stiffness?

RJA,

Yes, the newest versions aren't as stiff as the original versions, but they are still stiffer than other high end pc's that I have used. In other words, if you want a pc that is as flexible as a wet noodle the DCCA's are not what you are looking for.

However, as bigkidz has stated, these are outstanding power cords with a designer-builder (Don Ostrander) who will give you first class service. There aren't many manufacturers who will build a pc to your specifications without a significant upcharge. For example, if you need a 90 degree permanent bend in the pc he will do that for you. If you need the plugs oriented in a specific direction, he will do that for you as well. I think that by doing this some of the "stiffness" issues become non issues.

I would highly recommend these pc's and also would suggest that you contact Don regarding what you are looking for and the specifications that you require. I am quite sure that you will be satisfied with both the product and the customer service.

Best of Luck,

Scifi

I second everything Bigkidz and Scifi said, only I haven't had the opportunity to try the new 2006 models. I have one Powerwave II and one Reference for now.

I had not tried the earlier stiff DCCA PCs, but have tried the new 2006 REF1. Yes, it is stiff but no more so than many other high-end PCs I've tried. I needed a PC that could bend in a 4" clearance behind the amp and it worked just fine with the new REF1. If you need a *very* flexible PC, you probably need to look elsewhere, but unless you have an extraordinary requirement, the new DCCA PCs are excellent and definitely worth your time. Plus, I agree with Scifi -- talk with Don -- he's a great communicator and will definitely find a way to get you exactly what you're looking for.

Good luck!
