Has anyone used Supra AC connectors ???

Oyaide are "nice"? They are the best that money can buy. Their line offers a lot of choice. Supra are five-and-dime for both build quality and sonic quality. They have one "model" -- if you want to call it that. No comparison whatsoever with Oyaide. If you are in the market for Supra you can save yourself the time, money and effort by going to the corner electric store.

Agisthos, you hit the nail on the head. Supra is a low-priced cable and one can expect appropriate sonic attributes. Their plug/IEC connectors are an embarrassment. They belong in the 5-and-dime store.

Have you seen and used the Supra plug and IEC? Have you seen and used Oyaide plugs and IEC's -- any Oyaide version? If so, you might change your opinion. I cannot imagine anyone A/B-ing the Supra against the Oyaide saying the Supra sounded better. Can there be any doubt that some products are truly inferior -- and that stating this is OK -- and really and truly clued-in?

LoRad is a low-priced cord and one can expect appropriate sonic results when compared with high-end Synergistic Research, Bybee Ultra or ASI Liveline. The HiDiamond is also supposed to be excellent but I have not tested it. Can Supra LoRad possibly compare with SR, Bybee or ASI? Not in my experience. Perhaps in "special" systems. But certainly not in really high end systems. LoRad will "dumb-down" a high end system and this will be evident if they are A/B-ed with the aforementioned cables.

Other inferior cables will also "dumb-down" high end systems. This applies to all inferior cables. The system will be brought down to the weakest link in the sonic chain. I know what my system sounded like with LoRads and I know what it sounds like with the aforementioned power cords. No comparison. It is hard to imagine that other high end systems would not respond in a similar way.

Some people just don't like strong opinions. I have no problem with that. It does not mean I don't have the right to my strong opinions. Or that there is something wrong with having strong opinions. Better than having wishy-washy opinions. IMHO. Check out Musicxyz's recent posts. He does not mince his words. Why should he? To please those who cannot bear hearing strong opinions without an IMHO after them. It is a shame everything has to be politically correct these days. I remember when there was no such thing as politically correct.

I wire in series and in parallel. I am using Bybee, ASI Liveline and Synergistic Research and one Cardas. I have not found a single company that does better than series and parallel. There is something in the synergy that just works -- and I am not talking about a subtle difference. There is no explaining this except what the ears say. I tested my hearing recently and it is excellent -- above the norm for my age. Maybe one day I will find a single wire that works as well as or better than wires in series and parallel. I have an open mind about this.
