Synergistic Research Galileo SX Power cord. (Opinions on sound quality appreciated).

thyname,
Aside from nonstop dump posting whilst hiding behind a fake moniker, do we even know if Georgie Porgie owns a high-end two-channel system? Because anyone who owns a high-end high-performance stereo, knows full well power cords and cables make a world of difference.

Ozzy, my experience too - it does shrink the center stage, but it tightens the images...you nailed it...I notice it on the powercell sx that I am demoing. It does the same thing...without the pigtail it acutally kind of sounds like it "opens" up the soundstage (maybe even a little more liquid), but you lose some focus...but with the pigtail, you gain focus but the image and soundstage kind of pulls towards the center....almost a tradeoff, yin-yang kind of thing, but for most listening I prefer the pigtail...interesting...

When you guys change these things, pigtail or whatever, how long do you leave everything undisturbed before drawing these impressions? Because I find everything up in this level takes some good amount of time to really settle in. Even moving a wire to plug/unplug, even if you try hard not to move any more than necessary, it still disturbs things enough to be at least a little while settling back in. 

This will no doubt make the PC deniers heads explode, but I figured this out quite by accident many years ago. It is, as they say, "a thing".

wisper,
I'm glad great minds think alike!

millercarbon,
This is something that is immediately noticeable.
But, I do think having the pigtail installed is the correct path. Even now after many hours.

I had Atmosphere Level III Euphoria and when using the pigtail to my ground there was only a very small improvement. A little less grain and grunge, not much. What I mean, I hear more improvement in the first 5 minutes playing a record. 

This was grounding it to my star ground. My system is kind of unusual with 240V stepped down to 120V and the whole system being on a ground rod driven into the ground under the house just below the system. Ted is real adamant there should be a huge improvement with the pigtail, but equally insistent it must be grounded to a regular house outlet and not a power conditioner. Sounds like that is what you did, and even so the pigtail is not that big an improvement? Grounded to what? Are you using one of his Grounding Blocks?
