I already said I was willing to take the challenge. I'm confident of a difference in my power cord choice over a stock cord and the ability to choose it in my system or a system of its calibre. Since you have no system listed, I would want to know that I am not taking this challenge on a Radio Shack receiver driving Bose 901's. (no flames please) I would also like to know who will be the uninterested party that would hold the money and conduct the test. You already changed the rules from "I'll give anyone $10,000" to "it should cost you $1000 if you lose."
Post the rules, system, and test, so that a educated decision can be made.
