Virtual Dynamics Recall

1 month? Patience is a virtue. Speaking of Virtue, where is my Audition Powercord, Rick? I am tired of calling you and emailing you...

Yup, the ARC doesn't have an IEC thingy, but, as some of you know, I have a ps audio juicebar which I have a P2 cord attached from wall to bar. So, the ARC is still somewhat benefiting from the VD P2. You still get the best sound by connecting the cord straight into the component. The sound is smoother and less fatigueing, but the noise floor isn't lowered by not directly hooking up the VD cord to the amp.

I will look into maybe getting an iec thingy installed with a local arc dealer. btw, the arc component is an integrated amp built in 1997. I assumed all ARC amps built after 1990ish have detachable ac cords. I guess not for the integrated.

Oh, sherod, i am the 4am guy. I just wanted to place blame on gunbei cuz i am supposed to be in denial.

Ok,Viggen.I thought I had the 4 a.m. person right.Now we need to work on this "denial" thingy.Maybe getting the Power 2 cord hooked up directly to the amp will help.

Hah, Viggen always trying to shift blame! Gotta watch out for this one Sherod. :•)

OK, it's 8am Los Angles time, I'm having my coffee, and planning on installing the three Cryo'd Audition PCs after a brief listen of my current set up. Then later in the day I'll drop some nice NOS tubes in my Kora DAC and have some more fun.

Keep hitting that buy button Viggen! Ain't it fun.

Gunbei, ain't single life great? I assume you're single anyways = X. We can hit the "buy" button, and no wife will hit us back.

I just sent another reminder email to rick about the audition powercable today.

One thing about these Virtual Dynamic power cables, they are very hard to hide. They are like those very tall unmanageable weed that sticks out from the ground. My once clean looking system looks like something out of Terminator 2 now.

Good assumption Viggen. Actually, having no wife can be kinda dangerous with our hobby/passion. It's too easy to make a buy decision when we don't have to consider someone else. My last girlfriend thought my system was pretty cool sounding and looking, but she wasn't thrilled with all the time I spent with it.

Still no Audition PC? When my last PCs shipped from Virtual Dynamics, they alerted me via e-mail and supplied a FEDEX tracking number. Hopefully you'll get a headsup soon.

It's still early in the break-in process, but so far I don't hear a significant difference from the Power 2s yet. But we'll see.
