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.......

Believe as you like sir...

This company has delivered nicely (with some delays from time to time)

Like I said in my note - there is always a risk of saying too much in public forums - but I feel I did the proper thing. 

We are shipping our backlog and looking forward to RMAF where we will have some units on display...

We are well in excess of 700 units now and I do believe @barbapapa  we've done a nice job with Product and Customer Service...

Best always,

Mark

Life happens and sometimes we are dealt more than we can handle for a season. Mark, I continue to pray this season passes for you and you emerge better for it.

Received my 1800 the other day and am burning it in as we speak. I already have a smaller 500 watt balanced power transformer (not from CPT) in my system so I very familiar with how much of an impact balanced power can have on the system. Right out of the box the 1800 seemed to have a little more of everything that I had in my old transformer so I am excited to see what it sounds like after I have burned it in for a good week.

That said, this was the most frustrating customer experience I have ever had in the audiophile world. I paid Mark for the 1800 back in July and was told at the time it would ship very soon. After a least 4 other promises via text and email that it was shipping in the next day or two I finally spoke with Mark on the phone. Mark told me the label was being printed out and it would ship the next day. Well it never did ship and over the next month I was told via texts that it HAD shipped that day or the day prior no less than 6 times. Last week it finally did get shipped but only after I requested a refund, and even then it shipped twice before it actually shipped.

Sorry for the rant, the product itself seems to be very good but I really had my patience tested with this purchase.

Mark,

The transformer in my CPT 300 has just stopped working. Also the breaker shattered in a million pieces. So I don't know if the breaker blew the transformer or vise a versa.
Please advise ASAP.

P.S. I sent a email and just left a voice mail message.

Thank you,
ozzy

It turns out the problem was only the breaker. 
I was able to jump the breaker and everything works.
What screwed me up was that I forgot that you can't check the connections with one of those circuit testers because the balanced transformer will show as no ground connection.
