Audio Magic Power Cords

I had the Stealth XXX with the latest mods (I can't remember what they are called). I was disappointed. The sound was very compressed no matter what combination of switch positions I tried. I compared it back to back with an ExactPower EP15A and a Richard Gray 1200S. Both were so much cleaner sounding WITHOUT sacrificing sound stage than the Audio Magic. This was a Simaudio W5,P5 system with Von Schweikert VS4.5 and Exemplar 3910 for source.
YMMV

Mr M- How many hours of burn-in did you allow before critical listening began? The Stealth XXX has to be powered quite a while before it performs well at all.

M297904,

I don't know what to say...I've owned the RG 1200s and others. I currently own the Audio Magic Nexus as well as the mini ref. They both replaced the 1200s being fed by a RG Substation (240v). I couldn't be happier with the AM gear. The service from Jerry is second to NONE as well.

Good Luck-

I had the opposite effect after leaving it one for a few days. Sort of windexed my system in a positive way. this is odd because im a tone freak and usually care more about lushness then squeeky clean sound. But in this case im enjoying it. MAybe its the old building and new york city power thats so crappy to begin with.

Anyway. thanks for the replys. Any particular suggestions on Cords . Im thinking about the sorcerer only because it seems to be middle of the line. thanks

I've extensively used their powercord from the PowerDrive to the Clairvoyant.

As you proceed up the line, there is a consistent improvement on the previous model. The Sorcerer is very good, being 6ga copper with silver coating. The sound is very direct, dynamic and punchy. It allows the equipment to breath.

The first place to start with the powercords is from the wall to the conditioner. That forms the foundation for the entire system.

If you haven't heard your system completely wired with AudioMagic cables, you should try it. There is a synergy which adds up to more than the sum of its parts. Even with the entry pure silver Excalibur range, these sound excellent and represent extremely good value.

Dealer disclosure.
