just got my 3m ps audio statement powercord, oh boy its big, stiff and heavy , can't really lift the cable up with 1 hand.
a nice improvement over the zu mother soundwise, fuller bass and smoother vocals...speed and details are similar.

If it was a REAL power cord, he could use it in place of the bar on the bench press!

zu mother has good speed and detail, BUT it is more noisy (not enough shielding), smears up the cymbals and vocals a bit (sibilance) and doesn't have the bass magic like the ps audio statement...
i am using both of them on my headroom max, well statement is much more expensive than the mother , guess thats why.

Man, this is really overkill . I mean a 5KW airconditioning unit uses a smaller powercord. Can you still bend the thing? I hope you could post pics of it installed on your Max.

Damn, thats one big PC! The cord is as big as it plug, and PS Audio's plugs are huge.

ps audio loves to stuff lots of copper and multiple shielding layers into their cords and cables, thats why they are HUGE .

Heheh, the best part is when I first plugged in my PS Audio Plus cable (which is "thinner" than the Statement!) it nearly pulled my amp off of the table from it's weight.
