Virtual Dynamics + Ensemble Power Cords- good mix


I recently received an excellent power cord from Rick & the crew at Virtual D- his top-of-the-line Power Signature. VERY revealing (like a shot of adrenaline in the system). It has yet to break in fully, and Rick has said his new 'cryo' process will take it to yet another level- he is now offering the additional process on all his cables I believe...

OK- I have been using Ensemble Megaflux PC's only for quite some time, and love the natural tonality, however things seemed not quite as 'alive' as I would have liked. The VD cable brought things to life with just the amount of increased resolution I was looking for, without a higher noise floor.

In my 2-ch system comprised of 4 tube monoblocks in a bi-amp setup, I have found great results using the Virtual D cords on the amps, and keeping the 2 Ensemble cords + one Isolink transformer on digital(Audio Aero Capitole 24/192 CDP).

Same 'virtual' benefit in the second HT-based system- Theta Dreadnaught 5-ch amp is excellent natural-sounding SS, however perhaps a tad on the warmer side of neutral. Installing the VD Power Signature cord here again gave me the resolution I was looking for (kept an Ensemble Isolink and Megaflux PC's on the HT Processor). The only other cord I have wondered about for the Theta amp is the Custom Power Top Gun HCFi- I used to use the regular Top Gun on my old Rowland Concentra integrated, and it was a fine performer.

Anyways- don't hesitate to try the Virtual Dynamics cords- Rick has apparently now added interconnects and speaker cables, and an exclusive cryogenic process for all. As mentioned, they can be put in a 'mix' quite well with other cords too- in fact, I believe mega-cord Audiogon reviewer 'Tekunda' might be using the same VD/Ensemble mix of power cords last time I saw one of his posts. I believe Rick also has a $$$-back guarantee. If you ever speak to him, you will also find him very passionate about what he is doing, with the science to back it up.

Hi Turbo, just 20 hours and you like em? That's pretty encouraging. What differences have you noted from your previous cables?
If Sandra Day O'Connor and Ted Kennedy can have a vote and share their personal opinions, then I think Tekunda should be able to also. Unless, of course audiogon already has a policy in place that forbids Tekunda from his personal opinions without disclosure.

Personally, I think cornfedboy should disclose the fact that he is a lawyer and act's as legal advisor to audiogon.com.

Tekunda, I'd be interested to know what you find as I have a VD pc also.

stehno: << If Sandra Day O'Connor and Ted Kennedy can have a vote>> means what? ted kennedy is one vote among 100. sandra day o'connor is one vote among 9. sandra day o'connor can throw a presidential election with her vote, and did. poor ol' ted doesn't have quite so much power, despite what he may think. and what does my being a lawyer have to do with anything? what do you do for a living, john?
CFB, you seem to have some pretty fervent opinions about Sandra Day. Like I was surprised. I only threw Teddy in there just give you the impression that I am fair and balanced. :)

Me? Why, I've been umemployed for quite some time now.

sutts: please accept my apology for going even farther off-topic. but.......

stehno: i really have a number of opinions about justice o'connor, depending on the context. i think her rise from a misplaced female on an arizona ranch to the highest court in our land is certainly admirable. i empathize with her battle with cancer and respect her usual independence of spirit. what i decry is the supreme court's unprecedented involvement in the presidential election process of 2001. as a would-be scholar of constitutional law, i found this remarkable insertion of the supreme court into the legislative process to be very disturbing. nearly a throwback to the days of dread scott. that has nothing to do with my political affiliation. i haven't any.

FWIW, if your current unemployment is non-volitional, you have my sympathy. both of my daughters in law have been "laid off" in the last 30 days. it hurts me as it hurts them. as it hurts my sons.

peace and regards,
