Suggestions for fully shielded power cord...

Audphile1, I always establish my short list (cables to audition) based on design and construction. Then I listen. I'd be happy to provide you with info about your choices, but have never had occasion to research those particular cables, so I don't have it.

Clio09, as you know, I'm a card-carrying Purist fan. Purist has never let me down. A perfect example occurred today: All my (significant) cabling is either Purist Venustas or Dominus. But I still have some oldie/goodies (MIT, Straightwire) in less critical places like FM tuner, cassette deck etc. Musaeus is the entry level Ferox shielded cable, and I decided to replace the oldie/goodies with it as the opportunity arose. Today I received a 1m Musaeus RCA bought from a member. I swapped out the old MIT 330 from my modded Technics tuner which I only listened to casually for NPR and background classical. I'd decided the recent mods and alignment didn't accomplish that much. Well boy was I wrong! Real "audiophile" sound came out, I was quite amazed, mainly because I wasn't expecting anything spectacular. You know, there was a time (ca. 1990) when MIT 330 was the best IC you could buy! Anyway, you're interested in a PC. According to the Purist specs, the Musaeus PC is 14 AWG which should be perfect for your Hagerman. It is foil shielded though, not Ferox like the Musaeus ICs.

If it is still available I'll give the Purist Audio a whirl. Otherwise I may lean toward the Silver Audio Powerburst 2. I've been wanting to try Purist Audio cables for a while (actually my Joule Electra LA-100 MkIII is wired with it) and as you said Nsgarch I did know you were very high on them.

Just wanted to provide an update. The Purist Audio Museaus arrived. I purchased it from the Cable Company and thought it was used, but it is actually new in original packaging. Solid cable and very well constructed. It is also flexible so it can be maneuvered easily. I plugged it in to the phonostage yesterday and it sounds great right from the start. I imagine it will only get better as it continues to burn-in. I may have to try their ICs next.

Clio, I am trying this very same power cord on my cd player right now. My first impressions are that this cord is pretty neutral sounding, although I haven't run an "A/B" against my Audience PowerChord yet.

Audphile - The Audience is a tad warmer than the Purist Audio Museaus, at least that is what I am hearing now. After the pc has had a chance to break in we'll see if that remains the same. My guess is it will, and it will exhibit some more of the transparent qualities and detail that I am hearing now.

I still will be using the Audinece, next on a new CDP I'm getting. This pc is very versatile and has been used on my preamp, DAC, and transport at various times, with very good results.
