HiDiamond Power cords...


Has anyone tried the Power 3,2,1 power cords from HiDiamond. If so can you explain in best detail the qualities, strengths and which component you chose it on. I'm also curious which cords they compare to within the market.

Ldworet,
The Bybee GG SE Speaker Bullets took the system to a whole new level of refinement. The SR Powercell did some of that but on a much more modest level.

I have the Symphony Pro -- the precursor to the QX products from Nordost. Nothing dramatic to write about. Subtle improvements. I am interested in the QX products but I think -- from what I have read -- that they are probably over-priced for what they deliver. I have read reviews where Nordost often delivers four or more of the QX4 to reviewers. They say you need multiple units in your system to experience the best results.

Well, let's see now, at about $2,700 per unit that's 4 x $2,700 = $10,800. That's way out of my league. One unit would be my max. So, always looking for the best bang for my audio buck, I am saving up for a Steinmusic Harmonizer System. Word has it that this product is a real winner -- probably a much bigger bang for the audio buck than four QX4 units -- and no chance of buyer's regret at about $2,000 for the system with rave reviews on all sides. I have yet to read a tepid review of the Steinmusic System.
Sabai; I'm wondering if I could get HiDiamond to put a 32 Amp powercon connector on a power 3 cord and plug that to my powercell 10 SE to my Teslaplex SE(wall) Outlet. Could you imagine the results I'd get.
Bacardi,
You could call Robert Neill at Worldwide Wholesales to see if they do custom work. But there is an easy way around that. You can patch in the Power 3 to the cord leading from the Powercell by using a burn-in adapter. That's what I do when I run power cords in series. You might even find that you like the synergy of the two cords together.
Bacardi, Voodoo Cable makes an IEC to 32amp Powercon adapter for $129. Here is the link http://www.voodoocable.net/VAPA.htm

While that is not cheap, HiDiamond my charge as much or more. Also they might not be willing to do the Powercon connector. Even if the are willing and the prices are close which of the two would be easier to sell if you do not like it over the stock Synergistic 32amp power cable. Maybe Voodoo Cable will give a 30 day trial.
I am thinking of buying but with no home audition and no
major publication review I am not sure if on par with synergistic and shunyata.

I know some people here like it a lot but some have also sold them when moved abroad!

A few comments elsewhere indicate they are perhaps a tad too warm sounding?
