A question for JC-1 owners...


I'm trying to determine if it is worth the expense of upgrading the stock power cords
as I'm not sure if I buy into the whole PC mystique. The amps are on dedicated 20amp circuits.

1) Is it worth the expense?

2) What PC are you using?

3) What are the benefits and are they only subtle?

Well, with the addition of the pc's, sometimes it feels like it's gonna take off!
I was very skeptical that pc's would have any or little effect, I was pleased to be proven wrong and it was money well spent. The Starship lava lamps' finish complements the JC-1's
to a "T" and they look pretty cool with the lights off as well!

Hmmm...I wonder if I can improve the lava lamps perfomance with aftermarket pc's???
Tvad, I know about the SLVR's and have had some discussions via e-mail with Mr. Crump.
But at $500 a pop, I feel this is a worthy discussion topic. If a high percentage of JC-1 owners post that they have upgraded their pc's and it seemed to help little or not at all, then I'm not buyin'.
I'm trying to find out if this whole pc thing is just a bunch of snake oil.
I know this is a fairly old thread but I thought I would update it anyway. I bought new Harmonic-Tech Pro AC-10 pc's for my JC-1's. At first I wasn't impressed, in fact, the bass really leaned out. But after 20-30 hours, things improved greatly. Detail, imaging, soundstaging and tight, taut, tuneful bass. I am extremly impressed with the improvements and enhancements these pc's made to my system. I want to also mention that they plug into two seperate dedicated 20amp circuits with Furutech FP-2G outlets.
