Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord?

   Considering the many, many brands of power cords I've tried in my very well accomplished high-end system, I have never been so impacted by these Core Power Technology power cords. Within a very short period(15-20) minutes my system literally came alive. Soundstage opened wider and deeper. The background became dead silent, space between instruments and stage members were more focused and everything sounded cleaner and musical than ever. My highs had a glorious crispness and symbols shimmered. Midrange through my 2" horn became more dynamic and punchy. My 15" bass driver tightened and dug low with great control. My Rel G1 which is a fabulous sub on its own but with a CPT 150 on it is another story. Running high pass from my sub to my Audiozen Noah amplifier, music depth is just stunning. Lower end bass is authoritative and clean with solid grip and impact. 
   My experience with these power cords is truly magical. The scary part of the above is I only have one 150 on my sub and one 300 from my wall to my 6 outlet bar. I still need 3 more to complete my system. I could just imagine the level after that...In closing, I cannot emphasize enough to try one of these in your system. I CANNOT and WIIL NOT take these out as they are that good. But hold your jaw, cuz what you've been listening to will just become real after Core Power Technologies. 

Cheers....and let the tapping begin.......

@corepowertech What would be the interaction of your power cord with other power conditioning equipment:

- Isolation transformaer: Torus
- Power regenerator: Purepower, PS Audio
- Passive filter: Shunyata.

Really appreciate the input

@corepowertech,

Thanks a lot for your input. Regarding your new products in the future, will you look to make large power conditioner than your current 300W?

I just had a shoot out between a CPT-300 power cord and high current GE blue power cord. The result as follow:

My setup:

Source: PC
Dac: schiit yggdrasil
amp+pre: audio-gd
speaker: magico s1
all front end plugged into furutech ftp 615 into torus avr2 16A.
all cable are GE ICs, blue power cord(no yellow/red)

the blue GE was break in for 100 hour
the cpt 300 is brand new

first i replace the cpt 300 with the blueGE connecting my furutech(all front end plugged) and torus. the sound stage sink and compressed significantly. the sound is much thinner and less warm. the inustrusment separation and black ground got a little better. the details and dynamic got worse.

i try the cpt 300 into the wall socket thinking the torus may have affect it. the result still the same.

this shows that GE blue cable is better than blue/red
CPT 300 needs to clarify their cable interaction when plugging in other power isolation transformer

When I plugged in the CPT 300, the sound stage got compressed hard and the sound was very thin to the point I was unable to listen. I also notice the volume was much less louder compared to the GE cable, which is very different from everyone finding

i live in Vietnam, using 220v. 

Btw, the connector /plug for the CPT was not good that it sparks every time I plug into my Hubble outlet( torus avr20), furutech ncf(act outlet)

although ge ge cable is cheaper, this never happen with their cable

will continue to break in and further report

Hi barcadi,

the result still the same when i plug CPT straight from wall. I am just surprised at this performance gap. Let see how much the burn in could help. Uwill report back in 2 weeks

Hi Mark,

Its great to see your always prompt reply and strong support behind your product. i dont think the product is not working properly. The spark i mentioned was the spark whenever a male connector makes contact with female connector. Low quality plug dont have good contact and create this spark.

I have trust in CPT product with its unique balanced design which would helped with my front end. lets hope burn in process will help and validate my thought.

if things turn out to be alright. i will order the 1800 to go with my PC. 

P/S: you guys really need to work on the cord flexibility. the shorter end(male plug) is way too tough to move around. ac inlet for end-user power cord of choice may be a great idea.
