Modwright Platinum Truth Sony 999ES

Let me add one more thing that I forgot about...

Power cords have made a positive difference for me in the Modwrights as well.

I like a VD Nite II or a Xindak Gold on the 9000ES itself, and the Poiema III fits the bill on the power supply.

I hear that Purist Audio Dominus are very good matches for both positions, but they are too rich for my blood, and I haven't heard them yet.

I have two local audiophile friends, each of whom owns a Modwright 999ES as part of reference systems. They have both experimented with several power cords on the player and power supply including Poiema!!!, DCCA Extreme Reference, Revelation Audio Precept, TG Audio 688, Soundstring, Elrod EPS-2, and PAD Dominus. The clear winner has been the Dominus. I believe the current configuration is Dominus Fluid on the player and Dominus Ferrox on the power supply. Neither of these guys was particularly keen on spending the money for the Dominus cords, but when they both heard what the Purist cords did to the sound, they opened their checkbooks...

Playing around with power cords is something you do after you put in Mundorf sliver/gold in oil coupling caps!!! Coupling caps are directly in the signal path along as with grid stopper resistors which I had Dan put in a quad of Audio Note Tantalum resistors and a pair of Mundorf silver in oil caps. My Sony 9000 is very detailed and yet very smooth. My pre is a passive autoformer which lets through all the detail and dynamics the machine has to offer.

Can someone please recommend good power cables for Modwright CDPs and Power Supplies that are flexible and easy to place? Thank you.
