I give my thumbs up to Michael Wolff cords, Eichmann Express AC and the Bogdan AC.
Hey Redkiwi,

I did try just about every powercord I have in just about every possible application.

I am lucky that I found a way to enjoy the Eichmann cable in my system. I've had it for months and never really like it until a Furutech ETP60 arrived a few weeks ago, which is a power distributor. The Eichmann connects the ETP to the wall, and it does a damn good job here. This combination brings infinitely more music to my system.

As of this morning, I took the Eichmann out and put a wolfcord that just arrived in its place. I will let the cord burn in then do some more serious comparisons. So far, the eichmann gets the nod. However, when connecting to the audiomagic stealth, the wolfcord is way better even without burn in.

So, so far, I have a positive penchant for this cord from down under just like I do with those bullet plugs. I hope my experience helps you a bit.
Hey Ox,

I have both the Gain and Source cords but have only used the Gain on the Stealth so far.
Hey Oxia,

I use components with rather low power requirements. With that being said, the Eichmann really only excel on the Furutech power distributor and not on my amp, cd player or on the AM Stealth Mini. So, I don't think it is a current or power issue that makes the Eichmann and Furutech combo work so well together rather they have sonic attributes that synergizes well. The same can be said about the Wolfcord and Stealth. However, I surmise that your system's AC might be too filtered rather than its power being choked off when you have both components hooked into the Stealth. In this case, the Wolf cord might or might not be your ticket. The Wolf cord does give the Stealth more ability to sound less filtered being that this cable has more clarity than the others I've used. If, however, you feel your current is being choked off, you can try the Wolf cord or their new Gain Squared which supposedly is a higher gauge cable.
TBG,

I cannot absolutely say which cable is better than the other: The Wolff cords just works better in mine. Being that my system is a digital based and not an analog based one, emi/rfi being taken into consideration is important to me. And Wolff cords do this more so than Bogdans.
