Cary sli-80 power cord


I just purchased a Cary sli-80 f1 and am wondering what other, past or present, sli-80 owners used for after market pc`s and what their ears heard. <$350 used, if possible.

I`m powering merlin tsm/mme`s with an audio aero prima cdp front end. cardas gr ic`s and reality sp. cables. cardas gp sp. cables in near future.

Thanks...

I use an Audience Au24 on my Cary pre but I am not a huge fan of spending tons of money on PCs. If I were buying a PC now, I would give the Cullen Circuit guy's products a very serious look. They claim to have been the OEM for some pretty high flying quality PCs. Other than that the usual suspects of decent well made PCs are what I would look for.
I don't know what I was thinking when I bought some more costly cords, as I honestly haven't noticed a real difference on my dedicated circuits. I do find that IC's and speaker cable make a big difference and think your Cardas choices are good ones. I do use silver ICs on my sources though.
When you get the Cardas also try it on your amp. The Golden Refs do well on amps. I never cared for it on the CDP. It didn't sound open and airy enough in my system but thats my system. Another buddy had the same experience.
Samzx, at least with the cardas pc try, you can usually recoup your money selling used on here if you don`t care for it. Bobby P. of Merlin fame uses all cardas for his speaker`s internal wiring, master rc`s, ic`s, pc`s and sp. cables.

I do consider him a true master of his craft and at least try his suggestions. They`ve certainly paid off so far.

I have an Audience in my SLI-80 and first thing I noticed is that it opens up the sound.
