Power Cords for Spectral equipment


Hello again everyone. First off, thank you to everyone who responded to my post re/CDP isolation. Today, I am once again in need of advice in which I have little to no experience. I would like to hear your recommendations on power cords for my Spectral DMC 20 Series II preamp and DMA 200 power amp. I am currently using the stock power cords. I know from their website that Spectral recommends using MIT Z cords (I or II). Are there any other cords that may work better? I don't know if this is important, but I am using all MIT MI 350 Reference IC's and MH 770 CVT Twin speaker cable. Thanks.

MIT Z Cord II and a nice MIT Stabilizer MKII for amp......been Spectral user and I still think that MIT is the way to go. :D
I, too, have a Spectral DMC 20 II ruunning into a DMA 150. I use all MIT cables and ICs(350s & 770s) also. I'm running all these through a Z Center and only use Z Cord IIs for power cords. That's what Spectral recommends, but respected Spectral dealers do too! I'm sure there are better power cords out there, but these seem to do the job quite well and besides, they're quite reasonable in comparison to other cords currently on the market. I'm thinking that if I were going to spend big bucks on a power cord, I'd probably want it to be the one powering my Wadia 850. Does anybody have any suggestions?
IMO, the spectral/mit combination is the result of an economic conspiracy between the principals of the companies, as well as the expected self-dillusional subjectivism of the unfortunate purchasers of these products. i'd advise your trying fim pc's and doing a/b's with the most outrageously-overpriced versions by mit you can put your hands on. better, replace all the mit in your system and reveal how it congests and restricts the sound of which it is otherwise capable. BTW, if carl_eber is monitoring this thread: yes, i have heard mit in numerous systems in very good accoustic spaces, including my own listening room; it invariably manifests a fog or cloud that is quite peceptively removed when replaced with better wire, e.g., cardas, nbs, fim, etc.
Ucmgr- I have a Wadia 860 and the Powersnakes King Cobra powercord was an amazing improvment, it was shocking at how it improved literealy every aspect of the sound in a major way.
