Power Cable Break In - Such a Change!

@jpeters568 -

         The goal of the Scientific Method: to, "ANSWER" WHY observed phenomena occur.

     The steps of the scientific method include: 1) asking a QUESTION about something you observe, 2) doing background research to learn what is already known about the topic, 3) constructing a, "hypothesis", 4) EXPERIMENTING the, "HYPOTHESIS", and 5) observing the results  6)ANALYZING the data from the experiment and drawing CONCLUSIONS*, and 7) communicating the RESULTS to others.

     INVARIABLY: When one of the Sciences runs into a phenomena, for which it HASN'T YET figured out a method of TESTING (experimenting) the HYPOTHESIS, or: CAN'T YET understand (analyze) whatever data might been found during EXPERIMENTATION, there can be no categorical, "ANSWER*" to the question, "WHY?", and a, "THEORY" is proposed.

                  *English 101: without an answer, there can be no conclusion

     As an example: I've repeatedly mentioned that Science has no ANSWER or CONCLUSION as to what exactly makes up 96% of this universe, BUT: since Einstein's cosmological constant problem, Physicists/Scientists have been THEORIZING and spending BILLIONS, in search of an ANSWER as to WHAT'S UP?

 ie:  https://www.livescience.com/strange-theories-about-the-universe.html

     "And 96%?!?! Really? If you want to quote something so specific, about something we don’t know of, seriously, How smart are you?"

                                AS IF I made the numbers up?

      Get a clue! (fifty or sixty implied punctuations and interrobangs)

this ears adjusting to the sound can get ridiculous...I know I don't sit and critically listen for a few hundred hours while burning-in new stuff...I just check in periodically, so no "ear adjustment" here, and probably little elsewhere...

And, if you know your audio system as I do, I can tell the change.

@ozzy  Your earlier comment on getting foundational aspects in place is spot on. Proper wire, outlets, etc. Problem is when you change up gear the cable aspect can change. For me with Gryphon Mephisto/Pandora 2 cables each! The Dragon High Current had a brittle delivery. I don't even know if brittle is the right word? It sounded unnatural. The Furutech have a fluidity to them, a silky delivery without muddling detail. They have a very life like sound. I'm not saying the AQ are bad cables. I had Classe' CAM 600's, I think the AQ High Current with those amps would be a much better application. Maybe if the outlets were copper it would have been different? As noted I have Rhodium. I ordered a Taiko Extreme and am now attempting to figure out how I want to approach the power cable on that. I have actually heard of people using AQ High Current with Taiko. If I still have them I will give it a try Taiko. Not expecting great results. Typically copper melds well with Taiko. I'm installing a dedicated Furutech GTX-D Gold for Taiko, so I am thinking all copper cable with that outlet. Thinking DPS-4.1 alpha, with all copper connectors.
