Phillyb and Drummermitchell hit the nail on the head. Especially if you like to experiment and audition many different components - that you know are likely not to stay for a long time - the DFPC Original cords are unbeatable tools, since they will show the gear as it is (even if you might find an even better partner for a particular component in the context of a particular system).
As to the original question, I have experimented with a Mini on CDP and headphone amps. Unquestionably great value for the money, nevertheless, even for the lowest power consuming gear, if you've already had the original DFPC, you will be left with the nagging knowledge the latter can do remarkably better.
