Opinions: PC's with strong lows roll off the highs

In the past months I've been trying quite a few different power cords in my setup. A fellow Agoner that is very knowledgeable about power cords stated that power cords that support strong low end performance generally roll off the highs. More and more, that experience seems consistent with me too. I'd sure like to find a reasonably priced cord (closer to $500) that can support powerful low end performance and maintain extended highs. Do you have an opinion on this based on your experiences? We know this is all system dependent, but have you found a power cord that can perform both frequency extremes with no roll off?

I'm auditioning the Tesla T3 pc starting on my Blue Circle BMPH integrated and now moving it to the PS Premier. On the Premier the holigraphic (3d) affect of the T3 has really taken affect unlike any pc I've had. On the Premier The T3 has also improved on the upper clarity and midrange detail of the system. It's done extremely well and I'll be ordering one. Highly recommended.

What happened with the Tesla cord(s)?

Grant, before I placed the order on the T3 and returned the demo, several days went by, and with additional time the sonic presentation changed to something I could not live with. (this was with over 300 hrs of break in on the cord)I experienced listening fatigue that actually made my ears hurt. Changed my mind on placing the order.

I tryed about 1/2 dozen cords on my PS audio Premier and I always go back to the VH flavor 4 with the Gold connectors, It gives my the best lows as well as the highs without losing the dynamics as I find with other cords. Maybe It's because of the large conductors the flavor 4 uses.
