A New Superstar Power Cord

Inevitable?

Sure, you know, the inevitable release of the
LessLoss Signature Reference power cord. ;)

Neal, thanks for the tip, I may have to investigate further. For clarification purposes, could you mention some other high end cords that you have compared these to, and how the new LessLoss bettered them? Stealth, Nordost, Elrod, Purist, CHacoustic, HiDiamond, etc.?

Cheers,
John

Thanks Neal. Smoother and more natural than the Elrod cords? That's saying something. Does it present as deep and 3-D soundstage as the Elrod's? I wasn't much of a fan of the Audience and Kimber cords, I found them pretty bland.

The Valhalla could be stunning to demo, but I found that I could not live with it in the long term. Too much information, which led to shorter listening sessions as listener fatigue set in earlier and earlier. I am a big fan of the Elrod cords though. I've only heard the original LessLoss cord, and though it was good bang for the buck, it was not anything really special.

Thanks for the heads up Chuck, but I've seen that ad. I'm looking for a 20A cord at a good price, not a 15A cord at a bad price. LOL!

Neal,

I think very highly of the Valhalla cords too. If I were to demo my system to try to impress others, the Valhalla would be my go-to cord. I have just found that over the long haul, I can not live with them long term, as they tend to decrease my desire to listen for extended periods. I have tried them several times because they are so impressive initially, but I always seem to catch myself listening less often, I feel due to information overload on the brain, so out they go.....again. LOL! I found that in my system, the Stealth Dream provided most of the resolution of the Valhalla, but with just a hint of musicality that allowed me to use them over a longer term.

The Elrod's are a different animal altogether, more like the Purist Audio and Kubala Sosna power cords that I've owned. Full bodied and musical. Not as revealing and articulate as the Nordost or Stealth, but with more musical weight and power. I've yet to hear a cord that does it all. Those that provide more resolution tend to also be leaner, while those that add more weight tend to lack resolution. I tend to blend my cables and cords to try to get a little bit of both, but I probably lean more towards the warm side now than I did years ago, when I was chasing the higher resolution. Now I'm more about just relaxing and listening to music rather than having to hear that last minute detail in the recording. As always, YMMV.

Cheers,
John

Cool....I'm glad that you are thoroughly enjoying your new power cord Neal!

The new super star power cords- The new Tara Labs Cobalt Referance, The new Evolution Omega power cord, The New Evolution Grandmaster power cord.

LOL!! Ever the comedian!!! You crack me up Keith!!

I'm not the one proclaiming new super star cords that he hasn't even heard yet. For most normal people, hearing is believing, but for you, just follow Tara Labs blindly. It's so funny it's sad.

At least wait until the cords are out until you proclaim them the best. Then you can pretend that you heard them and they were awesome! Your subjectivity is unparallelled.

Not saying there are no other champions; can only comment on what I have and actually have heard.

Well said Norm and Neal. Let's try to keep all comments to cords we have actually heard.

I'm glad that you are enjoying the LessLoss Reference cord Neal. I hope to be able to listen to one someday.

Thanks Neal, enjoy! 
I saw a used one for sale for  $795, and was thinking about grabbing it, but it sold quickly. Maybe next time. 

@nglazer , Neal, are you still living happily with your LessLoss Reference cords?
