Which Cord Are U Using On Your Stealth?

I don't consider myself a Stealth basher but my experiences were similar to Kana's. I think that power is different for everyone from the components you have to if you live in an apartment in the city etc. I preffered the sound of my system plugged into the wall when power was good (late night, early Sunday morning) compared to being plugged into the Stealth any time of day. When power was bad the stealth improved the sound but so did ferrite clamps on my power cords. In other words midday listening with the stealth was not as good as late night without it and late night w/o it was better than with. Other than it's euphonic coloration, the Hydra was better late night than having my system plugged into the wall.

Morasp. that is a useful and quite interesting comparison. I know that here in the Bay Area (California), the power is inconsistent between periods of the day/night. I shall do some comparisons of my own as you have done.

4yanx- Looks like I'm not the only person that found out that the Stealth doesn't improve the sound when the A/C power is decent.

Hope you and your magic plastic box live a long and happy
life together.

A hui hou aku.

Hmm, if your AC power was, in fact, decent, why try a Stealth to begin with?

My AC here in the Bay Area, CA cannot be called decent and the Stealth does a fantasitic job in my system. Sounded a bit a constrained at first, though better overall, and patience, as is often the case, was ultimately rewarded. Same results that I've heard from about a dozen or so users. Especially when compared to some other units I tried, it is worth the coin to me. I will give the comparisons noted above a whirl to see if peak usage times yield different results. Bummer to those feeling their money has been wasted.

Oh, and goodbye to you, too, Kana. Good to see you've stayed consistently sarcastic and hope that you can find your "magic" by other means.
