Cardas or Virtual Dynamics power cords? Opinions?

Transparent MM baby...if you dare to face the music.

Virtual dynamics gets my vote. The change was a dramatic one. Just changing the speaker cables[Master] was like a shot of adrenaline going throughout the system. I do plan on replacing every cable with the VD's. Soundstage is huge. I always felt my sytem was a bit lean in the bass and a touch bright. The VD cables put that to rest. I probably wasted money on changing amps instead of changing the cables.

Sounds an awful lot like transparent cables effect on my system..anyone compare them fully broken in? What kind of music are you VD guys listening to??

Dave B the music we listen to is VIRTUAL in every way.Some of my favourites are XRCD Flamenco Passion,Sarah Vaughn-mixed up and crazy,Cantae Domino,Opus3 Showcase which is incredible sound,Burmester.If you really think that Transparent is in the same league then you should talk to the Cable company to arrange a demo.To be fair you must compare similar cables and they must have at least 3-days for the vd cables to settle into your system ( this allows for a type of burn in for all components).Good luck-Dennis

I continue to be impressed with the dramatic change Virtual Dynamics power cords have made in my (Ayre Acoustics - Wilson Sophia 2) system. I added three Nite power cords today, and even though not broken in, the tonal quality is beautiful and the black background in the soundstage is stunning. I am getting Master speaker cable and interconnects Jan 29th, and will keep updating this as they are added, and as everything has time to break in a bit. I would not have believed that power cords could make such an improvement in an already great system, but it is a whole new animal now, and continues to increase!
