Interconnect with great dynamics and bass slam ,

The Kaplan power cable that I am considering is the H.E. II model. John, are you familiar with this one?

Sorry, no, I have not heard any Kaplan power cords or cables. I'm currently running a Acoustic Zen Gargantua II on my CODA amp with good success. Other amp cords that have worked well with amplifiers previously are Elrod EPS-3 Signature and Statement (I currently have a Statement for sale), Fusion Enchanters and Purist Audio Dominus w/ Ferox.

All of those cords are powerful and dynamic with very good to great 3-D soundstaging abilities. The Fusion Enchanter has a tad more high end extension, but at the expensive of some bass weight. The Purist and Elrod cords can drive some serious bass.

As with all cables and cords, some sacrifices must be made at some point. No one product does everything well. You'll have to decide if you want more bass weight or more high end extension.

I'll take bass weight. I have top end extension covered.

Thank you for the informative reply John. Where does the Elrod cable that you have for sale fall into the mix?

I am so glad I know what I want, and getting very soon!, The Taralabs cobalt A/C power cord, retail $5,000.00 a 6ft cord!, that should do the my cd-player very good!, I am going to buy used and try to save as much money as possible!, I have a situation in the works now!, may take me 30 to 45 days, the seller has 6 to 7 of the cords for sale!, He told me He is sure that I may get one unless some one buys all of them at the same time, that would be unusual, however, my friend in L.A. californa sold all his at the same time, so, I will keep my fingers crossed!, My amp leaves on june the 7th, to come back a new one!, cheers!

@Waxwaves, Elrod cords are bargains on today's market. They are older designs, but still sound incredible. In fact I have an Elrod EPS-2 Signature on my Cary SLP-98P preamp. I actually had it on my CDP and the sound was so good that it made me wonder what was wrong with my analog front end. When I figured out it was the power cord, I switched the cord to my preamp, problem solved. Funny thing is, it is my favorite current power cord, but it cost less money than the cord I have on my amp and CDP.

The EPS-2 and 3 Signature were David Elrod entry level cords about a decade ago, listing for $1600. The 2 is for small current devices, preamps, CDP's, etc., while the 3 is for high current applications like the power amp or power conditioner. The Statement line was the top of Elrod's line about a decade ago, listing for $2700. It consisted of the Statement for high current applications and the Statement II for lower current applications. All of these Elrod cords are full-bodied, powerful and dimensional, qualities that I really like.
WARNING: The Statement line is VERY stiff and bulky, the cord I have for sale weighs about 8 pounds!

That said, I prefer these Elrod cords over current cords that sell for $3000 and more. Cords like Nordost Valhalla, Stealth Dream and Purist Audio Canorus, all of which I have owned.

I haven't heard any of the more recent Elrod cords. As with everything else in audio, David has gone way up the price scale. His current cords are selling for $5000 and up.

Here is a couple of reviews.
EPS 2 and 3 Signature AC power cords

Now the positives of the Elrod's: This is by far the best AC cable I have ever had in my system for amplifiers.
