Warm sounding power cord for for CD player to suppress digital glare on vocals.

What would be a good warm-signature power cord for a digital component to suppress glare in the upper mids/lower treble? I listen to older CDs (and the Bealtes) and there is definitely some glare in vocals on many of these recordings, mainly in redbook. Thanks in advance.

Harry Pierson had an interesting observation years ago. He said that if you really wanted to enjoy digital, stop listening to your records.


YEARS ago ... 1970's?   LOL!!!

  Oregon, whether exotic fuses influence the sound really depends on the circuit design. In some circuits, it can make a substantial difference (eg: Ayon), in others; none (eg: Vitus), so you need to do your homework & talk to the manufacturer before laying down your hard earned quan.

According to member "Wig", exotic fuses influence his Vitus RI-100 Integrated amp.   I believe he finally settled on AH fuses.  Somebody is skipping classes again??

Its not a good thing to use cables as correction tools....just get a better CD player.

If you have nailed down your problem as you say " digital components glare in the upper mids/lower treble? " to be coming from your digital source.

Then time to maybe change it, as todays good digital sources can be just as sweet, extended, and transparent as the real thing.
