looking to audition Running Springs P C--

I have a Dmitiri, Haley, and Duke in separate systems, and I think they're quite special. However, I've heard from a former RSA dealer (who dropped the line after the sale) that ATI bought the company for its RTI cap division, with the RSA product line being merely incidental. While RSA might still be in business under its new ownership, the factory has been moved to a different region and the products will no longer be made by the same technicians. The founder, who was also the tech guru, is no longer involved. So for now I'm wary of QC and new ownership's commitment to these products.

I have a Jaco and am curious on what PC you are using on your RSA? The new Jaco unit comes with a cheesy power cord...

I have used the WyWires Juice II on the my Haley, with good results. But when comparing power cords on the Haley when I brought it up to blusnbike1954's place, we both agreed that his Kimber Palladium was an improvement over my WyWires.

But, as always, power cords are a matter of synergy. We had a Shunyata cord (forget the model) that just didn't work that well anywhere we put it compared to the other cords on hand. Things just felt a bit more restricted with it in place, but I think that it would be a power cord I would look into if I had an overly bright system.

And the Kimber Palladium wasn't great with everything. If I am remembering correctly, into the CJ amp the cord made things feel too bright or etched. But into the RSA and his CJ preamp, it was our clear favorite.

Thank goodness for the Cable Company and other sources of cables that provide the ability to try the cord in your own system. For the best fit of cords and power conditioning, this is a necessity IME.

I use home brew cords that a dealer-friend makes from Furutech cable and ends.

I use all Hidiamond 3 PC in my system, they have blew away many cables I have owned and demoed but haven't compared my 20a HD3 to any others but don't they would really come close, they are that good...
