PC: KS Elation, Elrod or Stealth?
Regarding my last post, I do not try to tell that powercords make no difference, yes, it makes difference in positive way, but there are always trade offs. If result is a jaw dropping, or night or day, hell or paradise, then, it means something wr... 
PC: KS Elation, Elrod or Stealth?
jfz said ''I also have used the Elrod Signature cords and many others over the years. NOTHING, however, prepared me for the diffence I heard when I inserted the Statement Gold into my system. In fact, I might even say it is the single biggest impr... 
PC: KS Elation, Elrod or Stealth?
puremusic,When I bought Krell, I knew it should be directly plugged to AC. I did exactly what factory said, but, I bought an audiophile grade 5KW line AC regulator for entire setup or the line which feeds all living room. Than I changed every fuse...

AygyroA+ to Argyro, nice statement. Btw, you have nice setup, and have very tricky interconnect.(Stealth Indra) 
PC: KS Elation, Elrod or Stealth?
Puremusic''In my book, there is a big difference between being happy and "No Chance". Am I interpreting your words correctly to mean that you are now agreeing that power cords can make a big difference? Or, if you are still standing by your first ... 
PC: KS Elation, Elrod or Stealth?
JFZI am not here to discuss how new generation Elrod cables perform. I already mentioned here what Elrod cables I had in my setup. I personly think David Elrod maybe is the most honest person in cable business. But this is not the case. I pay prem... 
PC: KS Elation, Elrod or Stealth?
Puremusic and pentaI only partialy agreeYes my setup is highly resolving one as well. I am not against powercords. I still have most of my powercords(upmarket) but I still do own in house modified manufacturers own cords and happily use sometimes....

please forgive me, if powercords change the things such a magnitude that you describe, it means something quite wrong with your setups! The best cable or wire is the one which doesn't do anything! (except pure elect. trans.) 
Wilson Sasha's - All evolution in Wilsons are.....
I don' have any reservation regarding Sasha Krell or pass Sasha combination(power amps). They are both fine with Sashas.One thing is for sure Sasha is not a piece of cake load for amps. However, neither full Krell nor Pass setup will yield max. ou... 
Anyone heard the Nordost Odin cables ?
Odin does everything better than Valhalla does. After having heard Odin, you can't live with Valhalla anylonger...That's why I sold mine and bought dcs Puccini and send back the Odin where it came. However, the sound of Odin, if desired, could be ... 
Anyone heard the Nordost Odin cables ?
Audiosu as you commented, Nordost Odin is...................It is truely magic. But which is not to be understood as ''correct'' as far as sonics concerned. However, neither Valhalla, nor Indra is ''correct'' If you are ''Alice in Wonderland'' you...

ToffenG,Since none of us knows the character of Burmester electronics, we all be speaking to ''air''. Simply because, we don't know the faults of burmester combination.(sonicaly speaking) However, all we know Sophia 2, at least I do own actualy si... 
Meridian 808.2 CD Player......
KijankiI don't care what J.A said about Meridian and dCS. I stated my own opinion about dCS. I bought the Puccini in 2008, May and clock 2009, February. J.A covered Puccini by 2009 December. Check all publications when Puccini first appeared as a ... 
Meridian 808.2 CD Player......
Fafafion is right. Forget what John Atkinson said about dcs and meridian. It is the red book performance what makes puccini so special.(I prefer redbook over Sacd) Plus you always get it upgraded by dCS. But not the Meridian! 
Best way to hear a puccini?Direct or thru preamp?
I totaly agree with Elberoth even I own ARC Ref-3 as well. If your purpose is only listening music and having fun, than go direct with a very very good interconnect since its role gets critical.
