As a steady user of Electraglide power cords I must say - people who state that the Epiphany X is tending to be unmusical are talking bullshit. There are for sure components like Nagra where EG Ex dóesn´t work and PAD is better - right! But for some brands like Audio Aero, Convergent, BelCanto or Ayre you won´t find a better match. On some components I needed to shift from EG to eg. Shunyata Helix series (Wadia cd-player) and Virtual Dynamics Revelation Signature Series (power plant) but generally spoken: the Epiphany X is a mighty fine power cord and excells 95% of all power cords I´ve heard in terms of transparency and detail retrieval as well as musical flow.
Electraglide Epiphany , Upgrade or Downgrade?
I have seen lots of Electraglide Epiphany (not X) up for sales, especially from dealers - people must be buying or maybe not at all. I am using one on the cd player and very please with it. For those of you who have owned this cord - what other cords have you tried and do you considered it an upgrade or downgrade? Keep in mind, powercords like other interconnects are system dependent and I am only interested in your opinion based on what you hear in your setup. For those who do not own the Epiphany need not to comment.
