Mating power cords with APL 3910

While waiting for my (Denon) APL 3910 to arrive, I need some help in coming up with a short list of power cords to audition with it. In addition to listing the PCs you liked best with this unit, it would be most helpful if you could provide some specificity. In particular, what sonic and musical virtues are the offspring when the particular PC is mated with the APL 3910? Sonically speaking, which PCs didn't do as well with it? Are there any PCs that mate well (or don't mate well) with digital sources in general?

Tvad and Fplanner2000,

Thanks for your responses.

Fplanner2000,

Other audiophiles have claimed that the Statement makes a huge difference from wall to conditioner, especially in a large room (which I have). So, its on my priority list. If you should have an opportunity to audition the Epiphany X, I would appreciate your observations. I am very curious to know how it differs from the Epiphany.

Enjoy the Music,
John

i replaced the epiphany feeding my hydra 8 with the 'x' version and the latter was bigger, more open and showed greater frequency extension. that said, it's also rather expensive. i recently had the opportunity to compare with a 20amp wolff gain and the latter was less detailed but fuller sounding. the difference wasn't great and the choice would rather depend on which direction your system needs to be nudged in

Colesey,

Thanks for sharing your observations about the 'X' and the Wolff gain.

Good Listening,
