I own one Black Mamba and 2 Sidewinders. They replace Harmonic Tech pc which was an improvement. I was in Hamilton, Canada last weekend (near Ontario) and heard the Foundation Research line conditioner/power cord in a friend's system. The improvement was obvious. The design concept uses "filters" in both directions so that your components do not pass any signal back into your ac. They are basically a shieled power cord with a box in the middle. I plan to replace all snakes at once then individually with these for evaluation. Will report on impressions. Has anyone heard of Foundation Research out of Canada?
PowerSnake Owners Unite!
OK PowerSnake owners, I think it's high time that we combine our efforts to completely familiarize our fellow Audiogon members with the power cords that we love more than any other on the planet. I'm asking owners of the Sidewinder, Black Mamba, Cobra and King Cobra to tell everyone honestly what these cords have done to improve the sound of their system. Believe me, you haven't really heard what your components sound like until you've heard them through a PowerSnake.
