Audience Au24 SE power cord Upgrade
Has anyone tried Furutech FI-28(R) connectors on this amazing power cord?
Well, prepare yourself to be blown away!!!!!!
In my humble opinion, I heard higher resolution, smoother midrange and a very tight bass. And yes, I have tried the SE Cardas upgrade as well. While they are certainly better than the mediocre wattgate connectors, Cardas 'sound' was nowhere near the grand soundstage presented by Furutech. And how about Furutech's superb craftsmanship, fit and finish.
To put things in perspective, think about the leap you experienced when you upgraded from aR6-TS to aR6-TSSD. Reluctant at first, I got sold on IC's SE upgrade instantly. Both RCA and XLR's greatly benefits from the new connectors. I have not tried SE upgrade on speaker cables yet. I honestly feel, Cardas power connectors leaves room for further improvement.
My system consist of Classe Delta series, B&W 800 series, Raysonic, Marantz, Core Audio, REL B1's, Audience Au24 power cords, IC's, and a pair of aR2-TSSD's / aR6-TSSD.
The A/B comparison was conducted with 6 power cords between pre-amp, CD player, amp, subs and aR6-TSSD.
PS: No offense Mr. McDonald. You will always enjoy my utmost respect and appreciation. I hope to enjoy Audience superb products for many more years until my hearing totally gives up!
