I'm wondering what a "blind spot in the power strip" is exactly, and what does it sound like?

Here is some additional cable information

Harshness/Brightness from "Good" Speakers - Why?

Why some cables do better with some equipment and not others may be related to something called an electron pool that is available. If you ground plane is small cables that can provide additional pooling may be able to provide something extra....

Steve,
You still haven't wrapped your digital cable in foil yet? I'm telling you, try it.

So, this thread is still in the Cables forum. For a minute there I thought it was a gonner...

I always soak my cables in the toliet bowl, it makes the sound that much smoother!

These threads take on a life of their own. I am pleased that you did take up Rick's offer to try another cable. As you say, VD would have been within rights not to deal with us after the beating they took in this thread.

I have been pleased and impressed with the cable I got and will buy another one for my source as money allows. I was a very skeptical person with respect to power cords. They have forever changed my mentality about power cords. Their pricing is stratospheric and I would hope they would consider that and look to put a cord or two within the novice range of cost. The power 3 is in that range and I will spring for another power 1 before they stop their pricing special.

Thank you VD (Rick and Matt) for having a thick skin and sticking with us.

I don't think you have done much damage to VD with your thread. Peaple who replied was mostly cables haters ...

I heard Power3, Nite Platinum, Master 3.0, Verastarr and 2 differents gauge standard powercord.

They all sound different ...

You gain speed, dynamic and details. You can gain more soundstage (width), coloration (warm, neutral or cold) ...

You can change your gear, change your interconnect, powercable, powerconditionner, opamp, tubes ...

Just begin with the less expansive and keep going till you happy. 8-)

My overall impressions of the Power3 are quite good. I have several power cords to compare it to, and it's one of my favorites.
