Audioquest source AC Hurricane vs FireBird

@chauncey SR recommends that you go up to the next highest fuse so you should get a 12.5A slow blow. However I’d check with D’Agostino first.

@kennyc Yes, spending about $50k for two pairs of ICs and a set of SCs is asking a bit much. My AQ dealer offered a home demo on the Dragon ICs last time a bought a Dragon PC. I politely declined.

If I was going to change my ICs, I’d probably give Sablon a try. I’ve heard good things about Townsend Fractal SCs.

QSA gear is very expensive, they have their own cable line now.

I’m very happy with a full loom of SR Purple and one Master Fuse.

FWIW in my system, power cables on the DAC and Pre Amp made the most difference.  That may be because my Pass Labs amp is already so good. After trying Audience, Shunyata and Audioquest PCs on it, the one that made the most difference was High Fidelity which seems to emphasize the XA25's strengths. 

For those who moved on from the AQ Hurricane, what do you have now?  I have AQ on most of my components but am wondering if that may be too much and whether another cable on my Bryston BDP-2 which I use to stream my be a good idea. 

I switched out my Audioquest Hurricane high current power cable from my integrated amp, where it was producing a little bit to much bass in my system, to my DAC and, WOOOOOOW!!!!
