Question for Acrolink / Mexcell power cord owners ; especially the 7N PC 9900 model


Hello Audiogoners - a quick question on the above mentioned power cord. I am looking into this power cord for my Esoteric Grandioso K1x CD player and would like to know your thoughts on the sonic characteristics of this power cord. If you have listened to it please let me know and if you did not buy one and possibly went with something I would also appreciate that information. Thank you in advance.

@garebear - I have not tried this power cable, but I am very familiar with cable design approaches and this cable looks to be very good.

However, another cable that would probably offer a very similar level of performance is the Hijiri brand.

So perhaps you could ask how these two cables might compare over on the Hijiri thread, since most people on that thread have used exceptional power cables before and they may have come across this cable

Your Grandioso has internal wiring made by Acrolink.  The cable you are speaking about is way too rich for my blood but the Acrolink 4030 power cord made a huge difference for the better of my Esoteric UX3.  I also use a pair of Acrolink mid priced RCA audio cables and a mid priced Acrolink digital cable and they were the best I heard for the money. If you can afford the cable, you can’t go wrong. 

Good afternoon Stereo5 and thank you for your response as I knew that there just had to be somebody out there that has used these cables and especially the power cords. I just retired and the Grandioso was my personal gift and I was told that I should get an Esoteric / Acrolink power cord for this CD player. I have obviously heard of Acrolink but I have never heard the cables. If you could ; impart your sonic opinion of what you think these cables sound like as that would be a great help to me. I just hope that they are not strident or too analytical as that is not the direction I want my system to lean to. Also, The Cable Company does not have any for loan.
