wow! Buying an identical component to replace another in the event that your "fiddling" goes awry? Can you share you hi-fi budget with me, please?! :-)
I cut the cord and it paid off.
A while back I was considering cutting the rather thin captive power cord of my AirTight Atm1, even though I was getting the best sound out of all of the amps I have tried (many, many) ...I received many responses to leave well enough alone which I followed. Well...I love the Air Tight so much, I bought a 2nd one just in case ...so I have one here sitting idle...whats an audiophile to do? Yeah, I figured, cut one cord and see what happens, if it changes the sound in negative ways, I still have the stock 2nd amp. The result? I now have cut both amps, and once again the ability to use aftermarket cords on amps has only improved upon a good thing. Low level bass resolution has improved, the sound image has more focus. I am using PS Audio Lab
