CH Acoustic X-20 PC vs Less Loss DEPC Reference PC

Guys,

Were you able to get together for a demo?

Thanks,

Unfortunately had to pass on the demo.

Larry,

I see that you now have a CH Acoustics X-20 cord listed in your system, along with several other heavy hitters from PAD, Stealth, High Fidelity and HiDiamond. Any comments on how it compares with these other heavyweights?

Cheers,
John

John,
I find them all to sound very good and I can't really choose one over the other. Sounds like I'm being vague and noncommittal but I'm not trying to. I truly believe it has something to do with my twin isolation transformers (5 KVA/each) in my power filtration system.

I received one CT-1 PC a few days ago. After doing some extended listening I have reached the following conclusions (this will be short and to the point)
In the past, I was not sure what I heard, but I'm now ready to commit:

1) The CT-1 PC outperforms the other power cords I own on my CDP and Preamp. I have not tried it yet on my amp.

2) The CT-1 Ultimate is better then the CT-1 PC.

3) The PC effect is even better when I have the CT-1U PC on my CDP and the CT-1 PC on my preamp.

4) I’m having a hard time coming up with the words to describe this so feel free to add your own personal thoughts but for me I think I hear is the HFC sound: all the music is more dynamic in a more natural sounding presentation.

5) One has to pay a lot to receive a tad bit more improvement, but I really like what I’m hearing ;-)!
