Power Cord for Sony SCD-1

The player does need some time to break in minimum of 100 hours; some say longer. I have upgraded the power cord on my unit to a PS Audio xStream Statement with excellent results; better cleaner bass definition and blacker background.Happy listening

I would recommend a Foundation Research LC-1 dedicated in-line power conditioner.

It retails for $700 and comes with it's own power cable and does more than any standard power cable without the typical current limitations found in power conditioners.

What more could you ask for?

The LC-1 basically a power cable with a small 7" x 5" x 2" black box located about halfway into the cable.

-IMO

nororiously long break-in on these! don't make any judgments about the player for a while. plus, you need an equal amount of time to burn in both the redbook and the SACD. the sound you describe fits exactly the sound of an unbroken-in unit.
