Part 5 Moving P3 cord into Dac
Previously
-P3 cord from wall to juicebar
-Lat Int. AC2 from juicebar to Dac
Now
-Lat from wall to juicebar
-P3 from juicebar to dac
Comment: There is tremendously more air at the lost of lower frequency oomph. I have 3 individual theories, althought they can be construed as one:
1) Because the Lat cord is connected to the juicebar, and the Lat does have an airy sonic signature, the rest of my system's signal production has become airier, especially the amp since its getting a double dose of Lat cord's effects now.
2) Since my dac uses tubes, the P3,being directly connected to it, is revealing more of its characteristics.
3) Since the amp is no longer getting the benefits of dynamic filtering, it might have lost some of its lower current abilities.
Conclusion:
I love the added airy quality to my system; 3 dimensionality has improved along with better better ability to recognize subtle details; it almost sounds like an all tube system. I would like some of the lower frequency to come back. I might have to go back to bi-wiring. I assume I will lose some cohereny in the midrange if I do that.
An obvious solution, one might think, is to add another VD cable to either the juicebar, the amp, or both. I am sort of quagmired; would adding another vd power cord improve the current sound or merely alter it, trading in air for dynamics. Also, since money is tight, assuming I am to get more VD cords, should I get (2) more P3 or should I get (1) P3 and (1) Audition. I am under the assumption that my trans will harness more audible improvements by using Audition instead of P3. Wishful thinking?
I shall continue another night. I am pooped.
