Had a somewhat similar startling experience trying a v1 Venom HC power cord on a Taranis Class D amp. As I recall, it replaced a Pangea AC-9. Used Venom HCs come up for sale fairly often. Might be an option for you (a pair, for that matter). |
A bit off topic, but 20 years ago living in VA I sold my McIntosh C15 and MC300 to a fellow in WA. He was an artist, and sent me 3 nice prints of water colors scenes he had done. I had them framed and have them to this day... I continue to find 90% of people I deal with on Audiogon to be kind and collegial. Don’t let the forums fool you, just a few out of many that like to be heard. |
To Stereo5.......Got it....makes a world of difference for the better.
The return label was smeared. All I can make out is Road Island??

@stringreen,
I appreciate the offer but truly not necessary. |
@ Stereo5
..just wondering if you drink wine |
stereo5, thank you for the reaffirmation that there are truly decent people still out there in the world.

@stringreen,
It went out this AM via USPS Priority. I sent you two PM’s. I had to spell out the tracking number in the second message. Enjoy. There shouldn't be a problem with the IEC, its molded on to the cord, easy fit. |
The reason most "audiophile approved " power cords don't fit is because the IEC connection must fit between the cooling fins of the bass amp. Most of these cords have a bulbous Iec plug. |
RV designed an excellent and rugged sub amp, bigger version used in 7’s. There are some threads on this forum about DIY cords for the sub as only a certain IEC fits.
Stereo5 has restored my faith in this place......
Also check out
the Vandy owners forum on the factory website... |
You made me verify…According to the Audio Pefectionist Journal review of the 5a’s…
There are four Class B bass amplifiers in each Model 5A speaker. They share a power-factor-compensated switching power supply but the amplifiers themselves have high-current linear circuits operating in a bridged configuration.

Free???? OMG an obvious scam! He's going to get your home address and ... and ... well ... yeah ... |

I take back what I said in another thread that this used to be a nice place. Gives me the warm and fuzzies. 🐶 🐰 🐼
All the best,

@stereo5 What an awesome gesture and after some recent threads here a real breath of fresh air!
|
@stereo5
Nice, friendly offer. This is the Agon that should be. |
@ stringreen,
I can mail you a Shunyata Diamondback 6 foot power cord for free. It was not their cheapest cord, it is one or two tiers higher than the Venom. In 2010, they were $225.00 each. I think it is 12 gauge wires, shielded and cryo’ed from the factory. These cords are well broken in. I used these on my GE Triton Ones with their 1600 watt class D woofer amps. Bass had more impact and the overall sound seemed much easier. If interested, PM me your name and address and I’ll send it out USPS Priority. |
