Copper Sleeve over IEC

sgordon1,

Thanks for resurrecting this old thread.
As I ended up purchasing better power cords and/or added Furutech NCF fittings I found that the copper sleeve is no longer necessary. But for those power cords still using plastic type fittings the copper sleeve just might make that great improvement.
Anyway you can post a picture of the final result?

Ozzy, just try it!

(The $3495 SR cord  is no slouch, material-wise...)

How many times have you been pleasantly
surprised by experimenting?
Conversely, has a "sure thing" ever disappointed?

sgordon1,

So are you saying to try the copper sleeve over the Furutech NCF?
I am a little confused about the super sleeve and the cork.
Can you post a picture on your system page?

Great results placing small pieces of foam on top of sleeves
and/or inside of sleeves.  I use something like headphone pads (covers).              
A fit that is too snug (pinching wires inside a sleeve) can dull the sound.

As Ron Hedrick of Marigo Audio has said, "It's all about the details."
Also try pieces of foam on top of components and electronics like FEQ and
Schumann Resonators.  I also use Agora Magic Hexa (tweekgeek) in some
applications... yes, there is magic here.
