I've been using Maze Audio Ref 4 power cords for awhile now, but just ordered one of the new ones from GR Research to try out (the B24). The Maze Audio ones certainly sound good for the price (running SR Orange fuses in the devices they're connected to). After a few weeks break in on the GR Research cord (should be here on Friday), I'll have a better idea of which ones sound better to me (at least in what scenario).
And, yep....couldn't agree more. Everything matters.
I got an idea. Put two fuses in Parallel, with the arrows in each direction! Then let the electrons themselves decide. Plus, double your profits. Wow, like every other electron would pick the opposite fuse, man.
yoby, My power cords: I am using the Synergistic Galileo SX on my source, an Audioquest Dragon High Current on my Niagara 7000 conditioner and the Nova power cords on my amps.
An update on my yellow fuses that replace the SR orange. I installed one in my Lampi Pacific and listened for a couple of days and slowly added one to my Pre-amp and Mono Amps. At first blush there was an improvement in clarity so I was happy, I then pasted the end caps with 1260 and went on vacation for a week. When I came back and listened to my music something major happened. I could not believe the difference. Better Clarity, 3D imaging, Soundstage and increased separation of instruments.
I am debating upgrading one fuse to Red in my Lampi as I think the source of my music is most critical. Man I wish there was a lending library as the $1400 price for a fuse blows my mind.
