Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord?


   Considering the many, many brands of power cords I've tried in my very well accomplished high-end system, I have never been so impacted by these Core Power Technology power cords. Within a very short period(15-20) minutes my system literally came alive. Soundstage opened wider and deeper. The background became dead silent, space between instruments and stage members were more focused and everything sounded cleaner and musical than ever. My highs had a glorious crispness and symbols shimmered. Midrange through my 2" horn became more dynamic and punchy. My 15" bass driver tightened and dug low with great control. My Rel G1 which is a fabulous sub on its own but with a CPT 150 on it is another story. Running high pass from my sub to my Audiozen Noah amplifier, music depth is just stunning. Lower end bass is authoritative and clean with solid grip and impact. 
   My experience with these power cords is truly magical. The scary part of the above is I only have one 150 on my sub and one 300 from my wall to my 6 outlet bar. I still need 3 more to complete my system. I could just imagine the level after that...In closing, I cannot emphasize enough to try one of these in your system. I CANNOT and WIIL NOT take these out as they are that good. But hold your jaw, cuz what you've been listening to will just become real after Core Power Technologies. 

Cheers....and let the tapping begin.......

Thanks Kemp - you are probably right...

That data as you've noted is correct...

Thanks

yep - I was into physical measures and if I recall the site mentions only the size (and weight) of the 1200 model...
@icorem 

My apologies to you...

The 1800 weighs in now at 55 pounds. The physical size of the 1800 is identical to that of the 1800. 

Here to help...

Thank You,

Mark
Congrats, Mark, on the latest review, and the success of Emerald Physics (you too, Walter!) and Core Power Tech! 🎧😎🎸

Power Core Technology 1800

 

The day finally arrived, November 11, 2016. I was anxiously waiting for the arrival of the UPS delivery truck and my long waited for Power Core Technology (CPT) 1800.

The heavy-duty box had some weight to it and I lugged it downstairs to my dedicated music room.

 

Upon unpacking it, I found the 1800 enclosed in the typical plastic bag, totally surrounded by solid protective Styrofoam of some type along with a supplied power cord.

 

The 1800 is very solid, well constructed and attractive. It weighs in at 55 pounds and is 11.6” L x 11.6” D x 5” H.

The back of the unit has four duplex receptacles, a rocker on-off switch, a push button reset and main power cord IEC connector.

 

Out of the box with only a couple of minutes of warm up time I could definitely hear improvement with my music and as time went on the 1800 continued to burn in and is still improving.

 

I currently have my Transport, DAC and FM tuner plugged into the 1800, while my integrated amp is plugged directly into the wall outlet using the CPT 300 power cord. At a later date I’ll plug my integrated amp into the 1800 also.

 

The first four days of use I listened to dozens of my audiophile recordings that I always use for the purpose of demonstration and comparison. I noticed a lower floor noise; wider, greater depth and definition of sound stage; increased resolution, including more details; better vocal and instrumental harmony; improved timbre, better attack and decay elements, and bigger deeper bass resolution.

 

If you were considering some type of power filtration system I would definitely recommend the CPT 1200 or 1800. I believe you will find that it competes with the big boys at a fraction of the cost.

All Power Filtration provided by: Two Extreme Isolation Transformers (5 KVA each) from the main panel into a sub-panel that feeds all AC power into the audio systems. The Extreme Isolation transformers have a huge iron core design, noise suppression is -146 and they weigh 129 lbs. each. The isolation transformers actually sit on three 1-1/2" solid brass audio points that are on top of the cinder blocks and the cinder blocks rest on top of three hockey pucks that are on the concrete floor.

The CPT 1800 is an addition and improvement used in conjuction with my isolation transformers.
