Using shunyata power cords with a synergistic research powercell 10 UEF

Just for the record I am using older synergistic cords right now and am trying to get away from using cords with the Mac wall wort and the extra cabling that goes with them and as their is a vast quantity of used Shunyata cables for sale that is why I’m asking and yes I’ve conserved the level 2 and level 3 atmosphere by synergistic research, just not that keen on spending that kind of money right now especially since I’m from Canada and with the exchange on the dollar it adds quite a bit to the final cost.

Voodoo Cable can make you a 15A to 32A Powercon adapter so that you can use/try any number of power cords on your S/R PowerCell 10 conditioner.  I believe the adapter costs under $100.00 

Here is a SR Atmosphere Level 3 (no MPC or wires) for your Powercell (with Speakon connector) for sale used (40% off list) right now:

Hi Gents,
im not talking about the 32 amp wall to conditioner cable I’m talking about if anyone has any experience using power cords other than synergistic research power cords from the components to the powercell 10 conditioner and especially Shunyata Research power cords.

My SR 12UEF works delightfully with a mix of SR, AQ and Marigo cords. I think you should have no issues and can find the cord that works best for each solution 

do however look into what is under your PowerCell. Mine currently sits on a custom Marigo slab which made a obvious difference to timing and clarity

Folkfreak,
Thanks for the response and suggestions, I was kind of hoping you’d chime in on this. How do you like the newer AQ power cords.

Ive seen photo’s of your system so I’d say delightful would be an understatement to how it all sounds, absolutely beautiful setup.

Thanks for the kind words spinner1 -- I do like how the system is performing at present but I can always think of ways of making things better!

I'm a big fan of the new generation of AQ power cords -- especially what they do for power amps. My experience is described here

I've not tried them on any sources as I'm quite satisfied with my mix of SR Galileo's and Atmosphere's -- my current moves are more around optimizing the footers under the cords. One thing I do like about Shunyata is the attention they give to cradling the plugs and ensuring you get a secure fit in the socket - this is something I've had big issues with with both SR and AQ cords into my powercells - the plugs tend to pull out under the weight and tension of the cables

from what I see and from what I know about your equipment you’ve put together a very revealing but also very musical system, could you tell me your impressions of the atmosphere power cords and also how they stack up to the Galileo power cords. 

Sorry @spinner1 although I own both Galileo LE Digital and Atmosphere L3 digital I have never compared them Head to Head (I need 4 digital power cords for my DCS stack). The atmospheres were the newest ones I got and they replaced a Tesla which they clearly outperformed.

If I was buying today from scratch I would go with atmosphere and Galileo UEF so as to avoid the need for a separate MPC setup but if you are already heavily invested in older MPC compliant cables then investing in Spallone upgrades or a transporter is probably a better next step then swapping all the a cables out.
