Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord?

Thanks Ozzy. I think CPT products, irrelevant of quality and function, have been tainted with the company issues over the past 12 months.

I think the 1800 needed more refinement to make it a really good product, as you and wig have proven with your own refinements. With both your permission, I will follow your lead and study each refinement  and see if I can adapt one or the other design improvements for use here.

Cheers guys. AG

Well I think this will be my last post referring to the CPT issues which have left a number of customers of the now defunct CPT company short.

Walter has kindly, and very generously sent 2 EQ=CORE 1800's that I had on order. Considering CPT folded with outstanding orders due, I think this was the best outcome of a bad deal. The 2 1800s didn't come to the value of my payment, but I have to be happy that I got anything at all.

My original order was to have the 1800's and Deep Cores converted for use in Australia. That didn't happen, so I will be doing these myself.

I hope that all the others that contributed here and were left with outstanding orders, had them filled, or deferred until the Deep Core product is a reality.

Good luck to all of you for the future. No doubt we shall be crossing paths in other forum topics. My good wife and I are "downsizing" to a flat level house with no steps to fall down. When I have my system back up and running, I'll post it (them) on the virtual forum. 

Cheers, Adrian

Ok, that was my second last post.

I was reflecting over what I had posted and wanted to say further. This whole sordid affair has taught me a good lesson. Do NOT believe every thing you read. Especially over the internet where any rubbish can be stated on a valid web site, and in my case I did not exert due diligence. Although I went into a purchase of what was supposed to be cutting edge equipment, I did so with blinkers and made an expensive mistake.

I will never purchase from less than reputable, "household" names in the audio industry again. My transaction could have been with anyone spruiking the latest high quality audio gadget and having the right words to suck people in. I know I wasn't the only person tainted. I was never aware of this person's past. Something I found out after I first found A'Gon. I was suckered, pure and simple. Never again. I am now forewarned and forearmed.

From my strident, and at times emotional exchanges with Walter, I will say that the gentleman is as good as his word. As far as what I received from this transaction, I am far less than happy. But I am grateful that I received anything at all. Thank you Walter. You took on transactions from the other side and made good. I got something. I can't use it yet but it's better than nothing.

I lost some money out of this. but I am grateful that I learned early on in this affair to be careful. As it was, the builder we had selected for our new house went belly up at the stage where we would have made our second payment. We would have lost $250k. Just like that!

Lesson? Don't believe everything you read. There ARE snake oil sales people out there ready for your cash. If you are paying money, pay buy Paypay or some other means to recoup your loss. Never pay bank transfer! Seek all other information about the product, company and owner by whatever means. Never fully trust the salesperson. They are after your money first up, and as much as they can fleece you for. Look before you leap. Go through the purchase reasoning several times. Make sure it makes sense and you can back track if needed.

I really wanted the best for my system. I forgot nearly all of the above. Had I followed my "wisdom", I would have a different system and money in my pocket. "Silly me", is all I can say in summary. Lesson learnt.

All the best. AG.
