Powercord to tame brightness and add musicality

Some other thoughts? Can you 'tame the room'? This can make a big difference. I would look to the room...and if you don't want to change gear, I would look at cabling. There is musical cable that has high resolution and there is 'detailed' cable that is analytical imho. Again, system dependent...play away...try a bunch and find the (sacrilege) color you like :).

Also, try some tweaks on your cd's - I have found that a combination of the following has made cd's more 'musical' -
Herbies audio mat and an audio desk and cryo'ing cd's. All the above brought me more resolution, more musicality, not what I would call detail, which can be confused with bright....in some instances.

Be careful with powerconditioners, yes, some work better than others, but my experience as been it is system dependent. One conditioner is NOT everyone's cup of tea. I have found them to be system and equipment dependent. For example on my VAC PHI integrated it comes with a 47 pound outboard powersupply. I plugged several conditioners in with either no to little to no effect to YUCK! depending on the conditioner.

I never believed in powercords once.
I tried all the fancy stuff that cost a fortune, $1000 and up and believe me, they sound different, thats all but for a used Audience ~$250. They do make a great difference or sources and amplifiers. I dont like the thickness of it but compared to some others I had, they are just incredible! Good luck

The DCCA pc will tame brightness and add more musicality,
naturality and neutrality.This are very consistent cables.
I tried them with 3 system, they all sounded very
good, they are unfatiguing.My search of pc is over.
