Affordable Power Cords

Haven't counted to see if I'm too late. Did I miss out on another deal?

I was fortunate to receive a free Virtual Dynamics Power 3 power cord from Rick, and the folks at VD. I've had it in the system for a short time, but have already noticed some very nice changes. The overall sound quality has been lifted to another level, like someone pulled heavy covers off of the speakers. When I posted my virtual system, I had commented on how the CD player had a much narrower soundstage than the analog end. After installing the Power3, it really opened up, and I find that I'm listening to CD's more now. Played Steely Dan's "Everything Must Go", and was moved by how much better it sounded, more real, more there, actually performing in the room.
Thanks Rick. It's getting closer to where I want to be.

My system sounds so much better with the free VD Power 3 cable I received, I decided to try a set of VD David IC's that were for sale here on A'gon. I put them between the CDP and the preamp, and they made the Speltz Anti-IC's sound like filters. They improved everything as much as the power cord had, so I figured I had to fill out my system with three more Power 3 cords. I'm waiting for delivery with much anticipation. I always thought my system was lacking, and couldn't figure out just what it was, until I got the freebie. Clarity, dynamics, etc. It's just so focused, Everything, from the pluck of a bass string, to the thwack of a drumhead, is just so focused. It's not only heard, but felt. Remarkably so in my system, since I was only using stock cords which were supplied with the equipment. I thought everyone was blowing hot air about the power cord improvements. I figured you just can't improve on simple A.C. How wrong I was. Now all of my music sounds brand new, and I'm having a hard time trying to figure out who I want to hear first!

Audiofeil, as interesting as it may seem about the fact that they were free, the change was dramatic enough where I just ordered 3 more Power 3's last night to fill out my system. I feel lucky to have stumbled into the free Power 3 give away, since it showed me just how much importance good cables make in the system. I'm sorry you think the way you do. I would have guessed you knew that whether free or not, an upgrade is usually an improvement.

Sherod, since I'll have Power 3's everywhere, I guess the next step would be the outlets. Everything is on a dedicated circuit, so that's already taken care of. Thanks for the suggestion.
