If you read my previous posts, I always supported Pangea cords AC-14 especially the SE version, but I agree with O.P. As I move them to my main system, the Pangeas show their weakness relatively as O.P described.
Pangea AC14 Review
I tried this power cable as an experiment with the Rega DAC. I allowed it over 100 hours of burn in time.
Compared to the stock cord from rega, the Pangea sounded brighter and perhaps a bit more open/air around instruments. But after even more burn-in time it remained too bright for my tastes and I returned to the stock cord. So in this case the budget cord had results, but not favorable ones.
Cheers,
Rob
