Power cord = steroids for a component--


The reason I used this steroids term is borrowed from member "Chuck".(in that) We both had CJ 8's and both switched to CJ' ss 350.Thus the 350 ss amp is like the 8a on steroids. (His term and I agree.)
Now we come to the "cable/power cord" part of this.
I just got a VD Master 2.0 cord for my AA Prestige se. (Installed this Monday.)--AA Prestige se on steroids is my best description. Before this cord I was using the original Shunyata King Cobra. I doubt I am exaggerating; I know steroids when I hear them.
Further, it's not like I'm saying somebody elses cord wouldn't yeild a similar result.--
Anybody else use this cord w/ a similar result?---OR--- What cord gave you a similar result?
Speakers are Wilson Soph. 2's-- IC's are SR, active x.--Speak. wire their 3.0--(VD). Audience conditioner--Amp direct from the wall.

I use Marigo Audio "Andromeda" power cords throughout my system. They are truly outstanding. They come in two different versions KX/TX tuning (depending on the power supply of the component they are connected to). Ron Hedrich will send you one of each tuning for a free 30 day in home audition. Enjoy!
The VD cords can have a stunning immediate impact, similar to the Nordost Valhalla cords in the way of impact. They are very bold, powerful and have sudden attack on the note. Many find this to be a very nice cord/cable. However, just as the leanness of the Nordost Valhalla wore on me over time, so to did the truncated decay of the VD cables/cords. Eventually I sought cords that let the resonance of the note decay into the blackness of space, like those from Stealth Audio.
Sure, they are not as stunning originally as the VD or Nordost, but I have found them easier to live with over the long haul.

Cheers,
John
