All power cords are system depended and for that matter any cable regardless of cost.
You can read this thread of people who tried the same Pangea AC 9 and both had different results. This is normal for any cable regardless of cost.
Though I should add some gear when you insert a new power cord can take time to adapt to it. So those who say it's too dark and slow might just need to run it for a month and see if things improve, you just never know, I have learned the hard way.
If you purchased the cord and finding it dark let it run for awhile. I purchased those cords to try and I am finding that open, light sounding thus far. I am putting them on my TV system and sub to burn in for a month and see what I think then.
But I am not finding them dark, only when I first inserted them, fat bass, lack of detail and openness, now it sound the exact opposite, so go figure. My guess that they settle in somewhere between the two extremes.
I think for the money they cannot be beat and worth a try, what you may find out they one power cord may work wonders in your system when used with your current power cords.
Mix and matching sometimes brings the best results.
Only cable I have owned and still own that seems to work well with all gear is Lessloss and I think that power cord is very special out of all the power cords I have owned over many years.
You insert that cord and you just never feel the need to what to replace it. The Pengea will be great for my TV/Audio system though and that is why I purchased it.
I just ordered the 14SE due to only having the AC-9 on hand. I will mix and match them on the video system and then try them on my preamp and CD player just to see what they do to my system once the two LessLoss are pulled.
The cables Pengea are well made though I must say.
