Power Cord Preferances

I agree with Brulee. The FIM GOLD is incredible, but is very stiff. If you have the room around the equipment for sweeping bends and the patience to manipulate cables as required, then give FIM a listen. I don't believe you'll be disappointed.

I agree with Garfish, I also have dedicated ac lines (4 20-amp dual gang outlets) and use the Synergistic Research Reference AC coupler to cd transport (this made a really large improvement in dynamics,detail & bass over MIT Z-Cord II),Syn. Res. Master coupler to passive preamp (no noticeable change over MIT Z-cord II),Kimber PK-330 w/watagate plug to Genesis Digital Lens (this made a unbeleivable improvement over stock cord),Syn.Res. Master coupler to DAC (moderate improvement over MIT Z-cord II) & Syn. Res. Reference coupler to amp (large improvement in bass & midrange over AQ AC-20 cord).Also my front end has less brightness & larger soundstage with a Chang Lightspeed CLS9600-ISO power conditioner (amp sounds best & more dynamic plugged direct to seperate outlet. Good luck. Don

The biggest benefit I have found is with a very good cord on the preamp and transport. Cords on the amps haven't made much difference for me.

I like ElectraGlide myself, but haven't tried everything.

KW6 it was a no name brand and it was Europe and the guy with the cables came from beyond the Iron Curtain of all places. (Hungary, if I remember correctly, where the Kadar regime at the time allowed a bit of private interprise. To us the guy was just as exotic as his cables, but he made good money coming by every six weeks or so, with his LADA full of wire. Must have been a good commie or had friends at high places (audiophiles maybe) otherwise they would not have let him out in the first place.)
Great post by the way, I am glad that so many are convinced, so I - always the sceptic - am perhaps not completely delusional after all.
