Excellent reference power cord made in Russia

I took a chance on a hi end power cord made in Russia named M.S.M Reference 1 sold on eBay. The cable is very thick and stiff but stays in shape when bent. I wasn't sure how it would fare against big name heavyweights in my system/collection (Elrod/Sablon/Verastarr/Vitus Audio/Jena Labs. I was astounded by the most coherent sound I've heard in my system to date. The M.S.M has everything: a bottom end that is jaw dropping, pristine highs with no glare whatsoever, vocals which are tonally correct, a glorious mid band and excellent transparency. These guys really know how to make a truly reference cable! The eBay listing states a current price promotion which makes this an incredible bargain. Highly recommended for any hi end system.

Devaka,

MSM Reference 1 sounds like a giant killer in your system. The fact that you use First Sound Presence Deluxe pre amp, I can assume you are nut about tonal purity. Could you share with me what are the rest electronics and speakers in your system?

There are many insanely priced cords, and it is hard to find a truly neutral cord. Forget about crappy stock cords, they are thrown in as bundled accessory, nothing more.
