Bflowers,
I'm glad you are enjoying your RLS-1. I hope to upgrade my RLSs to the RLS-1 soon. As for the power cords, I found that there is a wonderful synergy between the RLS and the Elrod Statement power cords. Each is addressing AC issues that the other didn't address completely. So, technically, their functions are complementary, not synergistic. There is also a cumulative effect with the Statements; the more I added to the system, the better it got. It was a real eye opener...I mean ear opener. (An audiophile buddy had the same experience in his system.) Now, all my power cords in my primary system are Elrods. If you do try the Elrod Statements, make sure you wait 2 to 3 days before critical listening. It takes that long for their magic to really open up.
Best Regards,
John
