Bryan,
I don't know if a line conditioner in line with a line conditioner is a good idea but I will do a comparison and share my findings when Tweekgeek gets more cords in-stock.
Interestingly I got an email from Mike today. He asked that I not quote him verbatim but basically here is what he had to say:
"Hello Aslan,
I think I need to clarify a few things.
The Kaplan cables are not as good, not even close, to an all Synergistic system. However they are better than the Audience.
When you start mixing and matching different cable brands, things get very complicated, and that's when auditioning cables for yourself is really necessary. That is what I meant when I said:
"When you are using only one or two Synergistic cables in your system, its really hard to predict how they will stack up."
I have compared and all Kaplan system (power cords anyhow) to an all Synergistic system (completely cabled), and an all Audience system (completely cabled). Synergistic was the best by a wide margin, followed by Kaplan, then Audience.
I can send you Some Synergistic and Kaplan cables when you are ready. I would encourage you to evaluate them in your own system."
Mike asked that I not post the whole email so I have only incuded the basic gist. Anyway this should be a good shoot out.
