Feedback,please on new Electraglide Mini Khan Plus

I would like to get some feedback from users of the new Electraglide Mini Khan Plus( all silver foils) power cord. What's your impression of this cord compared to early models from Electraglide? What component(s) have you found it to work best with? How long in your opinion did it take for the cord to fully break in? ( I've been told by several people that it takes a looooooong time to break in)However, one user told me that it sounded better than most cords fresh out of the box. Thanks for the input.

Rgs92, That is interesting that you preferred the Kimber on the CDSD. Did you try using Mini Khan's on both the CDSD + DCC2 together ?

Did either Rgs92 or Springbok10 ever compare the MiniKhan's to the Harmonix Studio Master X-DC (similar price used), as it has been also highly recommended with the emmLabs. What about comparison of MiniKhan to Anaconda Vx ???

No, I did not like the MiniKhan on the CDSD (I tried it finally to experiment). For some reason, the Kimbers worked best, making things smoother, if a trifle less detailed, but somehow very pleasing & clear. I actually have an Anaconda Alpha on my Hydra 8 (from the wall to the Hydra, with the 20 amp IEC connector) that is great (neutral, all the pieces just fall into place with it; expensive though... I could only spring for one.) I would actually be curious to see (hear?) how Anacondas sound on the EMMs.

Quick update--picked up an Anaconda Alpha for the CDSD. In short, the best yet, mainly a more relaxed sound, but actually more detailed. I think this is a permanent cord for the CDSD. I did some switching around to check the best combo, and still found the MiniKhan best on the DCC2 (for air & smoothness). I also tried out the Kimber PK10 Palladium on both, and still found the above matches better.
So, my final setup is: DCC2 with MiniKhan Plus, CDSD with Anaconda Alpha, and Edge NL12 Amp with Kimber PK10 Palladium (excellent, detailed bass on the amp with the Kimber). (All plugged into Hydra 8 using an Anaconda Alpha to the wall.)
