HiDiamond P4 PC vs Nordost Valhalla PC

I am thinking of upgrading my main "from the wall" PC to Audience 6st power conditioner. Right now I use a Nordost Valhalla, which replaced an Elrod Statement (too unwield). The Valhalla is first rate, to my ears.

Would you consider a HiDiamond P4 be a step up from Valhalla, or a lateral step? Yes, I understand it is subjective, but only to as point.

Thanks,

Neal

If you are referring to the older Valhalla pc as opposed to the newer V2 version, the HiDiamond P4 offers far more density and extension from bottom to top. This is a significant upgrade. If you're using the V2, the gap is much narrower, more a matter of personal preference. The V2 offers a richer presentation than its predecessor but the HiDiamond to my ears is its equal and again has a density that's self evident.

Thanks, Frontier1. I have the original Valhalla. You have cogently answered my question. Refreshing.

So Neal, are you going for a P4?

I might, if I see a used one for an attractive price.

In the meantime, I have ordered a new LessLoss DFPC Reference. If it is a significant step up from the Sig, it should be exceptional. Have been a big LessLoss fan. Will report after receipt and burn-in. Thx.

Neal, You've gotta get a P4. I have tried so many power cords, and the HiDiamond P4 really is special.
