suggestions--power cords

Running Conrad Johnson ET 250 S and ET 5 with Vandersteen Quatros--currently, Mccormick DP 2 for CDs---finding issues with getting sound I like---running my Kimber Palladian to the Pre--which seems to work great--but as for the 250 S----have tried numerous combinations---Shunyata Python, Cardas Golden Reference, ---focus is good, but sound and stage is muted. Ideas? Also, could use a good reference for power cord for Mccormack---another Kimber for the 250S? Any and all input from people with similar equipment very much appreciated.

Harry,

I recommend the CH Acoustic X20 power cords, they're my reference.

The CH Acoustic X15 power cord is also known as the Running Springs top-of-the-line HZ Crown Jewel.

You can read my review of the X15 power cords that I started with before upgrading to the X20 power cords here: http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?rcabl&1282568800&openmine&zzKrell_man&4&5#Krell_man

I second Sablon's Gran Corona. FYI, it's 4awg.

Thanks Chuck,
I will look into these too. Good power cords do make a HUGE difference in a system.
Ghost, I wouldn't mind checking out the Acoustic Zen as well.

Nordost Valhalla PC's are top notch if you can swing them; also LessLoss Sig's are right on their tail, so to speak.

Valhalla is phenomenal Neal, but quite the price tag too. Anyone try Cardas' power cables? Thoughts?
