Have you been surprised by power cable changes? s


Having been listening to music for over 30 years the tweak I had resisted was power cables and mains blocks. 

I took the plunge spent £400 on mains cables and a mains block through Mark Grant cables in the UK. All hand made. It was easy for me as he lives 15 mins away.

The quality of the product is excellent the sound difference, just tighter, clearer, no noise,  it is like lifting a veil off the speakers the whole sound just seems clearer, greater separation and increasing the width, height and depth.

I recommend you look at your power cables and mains block rather than spend £0000's on new boxes. I wish I had taken the plunge years ago. I have never heard Marc Cohn or Jackson Browne sound so good. 

I have a nice set up. Amplifiers Croft Epoch Elite and Croft Twinstar 1 both modified by Glenn Croft,  Melco Streamer, Exposure Dac and Piega Classic 40.2 speakers with Lfd Speaker cable and BK sub Xxl 400. I could not be happier.

Enjoy the music.

Anyone else notice how many rave reviews the new top of the line Audioquest power cords get, like Hurricane? You know, the ones that are controlled for directionality. Do any other power cord companies do that? I tend to doubt it. What’s weird is it’s not even the audio signal that’s traveling through power cords, at least not as it’s usually thought of.
I have learned rather recently the sound is considerably better without power cords. And without cables, fuses, transformers, and big honking capacitors. A simple ultralight battery-powered headphone system is the way to go if you’re looking for the lowest possible noise and distortion in your musical waveform. There’s no substitute for signal to noise + distortion ratio! 🤗
