Musical Fidelity A5 CD-Player Powercord proposal

Hello!

I have a Musical Fidelity A5 CDP and need recommendations on a Powercord! I have Great Success useing a Synergistic Research AC Master coupler Active on my Musical Fidelity A5 Amp.

So it the CDP lefth then, so any recommendations??

I was thinking about SR Resolution Reference AC coupler.
But it´s hard, no dealer where I live in Sweden.

So come on Brainstorm som recommendations!!

Best Regards

Fredrik

I've had great success with a VH Audio Flavor 4 on my Wadia 830. Another cable I'm really impressed with is the Black Sand Silver Reference (check Black Sand auctions here on Audiogon). Both Black Sand and VH Audio have evaluation periods -- definitely worth a try.

After buying an MF A5 player, I emailed usedcable.com for Powercord suggestions. They recomended the JPS labs digital AC.
I only compared it to the VH Audio Flavor 4 that I already had in my system. The JPS sounded much superior in my system. The JPS can be had for $200-$250 used.
Happy hunting.

i owned a musical fidelity a5 and i also owned and later sold a jps digital ac. both were sold and neither had a warm presentation.

i tried many cords to reduce the emphasis upon the lower treble and couldn't find any. perhaps a dcaa audio ref 1 or source line cord.

i currently have them but no longer have the musical fidelity.

Mr Tennis, for the record, in your remarks "...neither had a warm presentation" are your impressions based on your peculiar requirements of a very rolled off upper mid range and highs (as you have in previous post indicated that you prefer) or is this comment meant in an absolute sense in comparison to other CDP's you have listened to in the same system?

Hello boys!

Thanks for all the answers!

The JPS Digital Ac seems like it´s worth trying I have a Dealer here in Sweden who got it!

Anyone who has anything to say about Synergistic Resolution Reference AC coupler? I am wery interesded in this cable because I had such A Improvment on the Amp with SR cabels!

Kind Regards
Fredrik
