Mark,
Monoprice sells them.
Yesterday my wife commented that "whatever you have done to the TV now shows all the makeup and teeth problems in the picture". I took that as a compliment.
Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord?
Considering the many, many brands of power cords I've tried in my very well accomplished high-end system, I have never been so impacted by these Core Power Technology power cords. Within a very short period(15-20) minutes my system literally came alive. Soundstage opened wider and deeper. The background became dead silent, space between instruments and stage members were more focused and everything sounded cleaner and musical than ever. My highs had a glorious crispness and symbols shimmered. Midrange through my 2" horn became more dynamic and punchy. My 15" bass driver tightened and dug low with great control. My Rel G1 which is a fabulous sub on its own but with a CPT 150 on it is another story. Running high pass from my sub to my Audiozen Noah amplifier, music depth is just stunning. Lower end bass is authoritative and clean with solid grip and impact.
My experience with these power cords is truly magical. The scary part of the above is I only have one 150 on my sub and one 300 from my wall to my 6 outlet bar. I still need 3 more to complete my system. I could just imagine the level after that...In closing, I cannot emphasize enough to try one of these in your system. I CANNOT and WIIL NOT take these out as they are that good. But hold your jaw, cuz what you've been listening to will just become real after Core Power Technologies.
Cheers....and let the tapping begin.......

Mark, The DarbeeVision DVP-5000S is an HDMI video processor that enhances sharpness, texture, contrast, and depth. You can find more information about the technology in their whitepaper, linked under "DVP Whitepaper with Tech Details" here: http://www.darbeevision.com/visual-presence/ Or the direct link: https://static1.squarespace.com/static/54823afbe4b023af78555735/t/54d905e6e4b02ab99da2ed4d/142350896... Or if you just want to see pics and videos of the processing, you can look here: http://www.darbeevision.com/images/ Quantum QRT was an independent company and technology, that was bought out by Nordost. Of course, Nordost redesigned the products in "fancy" aluminum chassis, and charged multiples more. The QRT will improve dimensionality and color saturation for video. You can find the current Nordost QRT products here: http://www.nordost.com/qrt-power-products.php |
Hello All, @benzman - thanks for your enquiry. New Metal is in the house for 1800's and 1200's - we are making 1200's from back orders now - and 1800's will be ready to go next week. One nice surprise is you'll note that the front panels are now Laser Engraved. The "blind" engraving is very beautiful and quite understated. That said - some folks wanted to "see" the Name and Model Number even better. Our Metal Fabricator made us a sample of the Laser Engraving and it's really quite nice. Bottom Line - all products shipping next week - good stock until the end of the year. @ozzy Yes indeed - word is starting to get out to the Projector Crowd as well - our Balanced Power Topology is really perfect for that purpose. I'm amazed and what I see and others are amazed at what they are measuring... :) @sadono - thanks for your info. I'm excited to try these enhancements. Best wishes to all... Mark |
ozzy, Were you using the DarbeeVision DVP-5000S? I've heard the older models introduced artifacts. Also, what percentage and mode were you using? All of that aside, if using a 4K TV, you're still at the mercy of the video processing and upsampling of your TV. This means every display will handle things differently. Plus, Darbee should be introducing their 4K processors this coming year. As to the Redmere active HDMI cables, many people have had problems using them with true 4K sources. They do not seem to have the signal transmission capability of thicker gauge analog cables, despite their claims. While the Redmere cables do lower the noise-floor, it is achieved through processing, equalization, and altering the source. To get an idea of what you are doing to your video and audio signals, look here: https://patentimages.storage.googleapis.com/US7936197B2/US07936197-20110503-D00001.png "FIGS. 1A-1C illustrate the effect of the limited bandwidth of a cable on the transmitted signals. FIG. 1A illustrates a high-speed signal to be transmitted through a high-speed cable, FIG. 1B shows a distorted bandwidth-limited signal received at the receiver end of the cable (before equalization), and FIG. 1C shows the received signal at the receiver end after equalization. As seen from FIG. 1B, the signal edges are slowed and short pulses are narrowed, not reaching the full transmitted amplitude." Personally, I prefer thicker gauge HDMI cables with silver. |
