Need some feedback on what P.C will work best with ARC LS 25mk2 and Vt100 MK3.Realizing the type of P.C is crucial in system matching I don't want to buy anything that isn't a good match. Thanks mike
I had great success with the Acoustic Zen Tsunami on both VT-100 & AR preamps. Dynamic, full, robust, smooth. Better than Synergistic AC Master or Virtual Dynamics Power 3.
I am using the Taipan Alpha (20A) with my Hydra 8. It is indeed a very "fast" cable. I have experimented with the Shunyata King Cobra, Black Mamba, Audio Magic and a bunch of $3000 PC. In my system the Elrods and NBS were the most neutral. The King Cobra was an eye opener when I tried it several years ago: I was amazed at the improvements in my system. Again, you need to experiment with different cables.
I just bought a ARC VT100 Mk III and tried my Audience Powercord that I have used on my Lamm pre-amp. Maybe due to how the amp needs to be grounded or some other electrical issue but the amp lost it's focus and the solid soundstage that I had with the stock power cord was gone. The stock cord is excellent. Don't mess with success, let alone waste your money.
