DCCA Source, DFPC Signature or Elrod EPS3

Thanks John,

I had read somewhere that the EPS3 is warmer than the EPS2. Do you find this to be the case?

No, I cannot say that I have noticed this. Make sure that if someone is claiming that they are comparing both cords, that they are doing so on the same piece of gear. I have tried both the EPS-3S and 2S on both my CDP and preamp with very similar results. They both worked very well on my CDP, but not well at all on my preamp. Sometimes people may say that one cord sounds warmer than another, but they may not be using the cords on the same piece of equipment, which obviously can lead to different interpretations.

Also, make sure that if you are comparing the EPS-2S with the EPS-3S that you are not using a high current amp or conditioner, where the 3S would have a natural advantage as that is what it is designed for. I've found that within it's power range, the 2S sounds very similar to the 3S, possibly even slightly more dimensional.

Cheers,
John
