While I have no reason to doubt the contention that, as stated previously, placing the Deep Core in front of the Equi=Core unit produces better results than between an Equi Core unit and an individual audio/video component(s), I wonder if that mitigates the rather prominent and unique capability that allows the DC user to "optimize the power delivery" for an individual component. My inference is that each component may (does?) require individual optimization to achieve best results. Presumably, placing the DC in front of an E=C unit will unavoidably necessitate some compromise of individual component power delivery optimization in favor of system optimization. I imagine that a no-holds-barred, gilded lily system would include a DC just ahead of every individual component, not likely in this household.
Any thoughts?
