I purchased a used Mamba Cord from usedcable.com for $250. I found this cord works well with my Pass Aleph P Pre Amp. Although I thought it was supposed to be broken in, I found after 2 weeks the Pre amp lost any coloration that was once there(before the cord) and the noise level dropped significantly. I did however find that I need to change out a pair of interconnects that went from Preamp/amp. Although powersnakes web page says there cords don't make your system bright it sure made some sonic differences. So I replaced some Audioquest cables with some smoother AIR 2 cables by tara labs. I couldn't be more pleased. I hope some day I can be rich like some of you guys or girls here and buy a Black Maumba or Cobra. hehe
