Power Cord Flavors

Can anyone comment on the Virtual Dynamics, Xtreme, and Oyaide Tunami power cords?

Thank you

I have just posted a relatively detailed listening comparison of the Shunyata Anaconda Helix Alpha and Anaconda Helix VX on a thread entitled "A Tale Of Two. . . Anacondas (Helix)". You will find it at:

For the comparison Babybear and I connected the Anacondas to the X-01 Limited in his system.

Hi folks, I think some of these suggestions cause some readers to be psycologically driven. This thread I think, sometimes guides your expectation toward a certain level of sonic characteristic expectation of a cord before you plug it onto your gears.I just wondering whether we listen to the music or the cords ?

Leanbean, I believe you miss the point of this thread, which is to provide potential buyers with an idea of what they might expect when inserting specific cords into their systems. The thread is intended as a resource. A tool.

Those who don't believe that power cords make a difference to a system's sound will find no value in this thread, and in fact the thread was not intended for them.

Once you experiment with a few cords, then please come back and comment on what you heard. Your opinion counts.

Personally, I've found it's almost useless to compare PC's in different systems without looking closely at the # of components in the system, and the # of lines used to power the system.
A system which has 3 components (cd, pre, amp) plugged into one line, will always make the PC's sound 'different' than say a system with 5 components plugged into 2 lines (transport, room correction dsp, dac and preamp in one line, amp in the other).
Everything you plug into your ac lines changes the sound, even if it's not in the music signal chain. IMO, this makes evaluation and comparisons nearly impossible on a system-to-system basis. The most likely reason for some PC's getting rave reviews on many different systems, is that the systems aren't really that different, from an ac standpoint.
As someone who has spent many hundreds of hours evaluating PC's and ac line devices as research for my upcoming AC power cable introduction, let me tell you, it's VERY difficult to predict what a PC will sound like in a given system.
