HiDiamond Power cords...

Has anyone tried the Power 3,2,1 power cords from HiDiamond. If so can you explain in best detail the qualities, strengths and which component you chose it on. I'm also curious which cords they compare to within the market.

Wow Sabai, that's like about a $400 upgrade. That's almost double the price of a P3.....Did that price make it worth the quality increase?

Moonguy, I am not sure. I guess you will have to ask Robert from Worldwide.
I know I had discussed with him about getting a power cord with the IEC end detached for possible hard wiring. Perhaps just buy a Neutrik powercon connector and exchange the ends yourself.

Looks to me to be similiar to what comes on the HD Power cord 4.

@Sabai, I don't understand the reason for changing the connectors on a HD power 3 cord if you liked the P3 sound for its low price point compared to others. You now have made this a $900 power cord and you have just crimped the wire to the connector without soldering them. What are the positive differences with the new connectors compared to the regular P3 connectors?
