Equi=Core 1000

I just bought an Equi=Core 1000 which will be here this Friday. I am currently using an Audioquest Niagara 1200 which I like but don’t truly love. So, I started looking for a new conditioner and found the Equi=Core on the Audiogon website. I read many articles about the 1000 and the 1800 and everyone of them stated how great both conditioners are especially with the new transformer. Many compared the 1000 and 1800 to conditioners costing $3k-$4k. Also, I chatted with Walter a few times before purchasing and he took the time to answer all my many questions. So my question is (even though it’s too late), does anyone use the Equi=Core, and if so, how do you like it?

 

thanks

Got ya.  Looks like I confused the numbers too so added still more confusion.  Will be very interested in any additional comments.

@stevebohnii  Considering the same two conditioners so very interested in your comments. I'm a bit confused by your timeline though.  You got the 1200 on 9/23 but it was not right so you exchanged it.  A day later you have the replacement unit and like it more than the 1200.  Is that correct?  Another weeks gone by. What are your thoughts now about how the 1200 and 1800 compare?

@stevebohnii - thanks for your additional comments.  Interesting that you're getting more detail with the Equi=Core.  Seems like it is doing a better job than the Audioquest at lowering the noise floor.  6 oulets is all I need so would probably opt for the E=C 1000 if I go that direction instead of AQ.
