Power cord = steroids for a component--

The reason I used this steroids term is borrowed from member "Chuck".(in that) We both had CJ 8's and both switched to CJ' ss 350.Thus the 350 ss amp is like the 8a on steroids. (His term and I agree.)
Now we come to the "cable/power cord" part of this.
I just got a VD Master 2.0 cord for my AA Prestige se. (Installed this Monday.)--AA Prestige se on steroids is my best description. Before this cord I was using the original Shunyata King Cobra. I doubt I am exaggerating; I know steroids when I hear them.
Further, it's not like I'm saying somebody elses cord wouldn't yeild a similar result.--
Anybody else use this cord w/ a similar result?---OR--- What cord gave you a similar result?
Speakers are Wilson Soph. 2's-- IC's are SR, active x.--Speak. wire their 3.0--(VD). Audience conditioner--Amp direct from the wall.

The three best power cords I've had beyond the VD are the Stealth Dream, Dream State and Silent Source. I've also had the old Synergistic power cord, but haven't heard the new Tesla series.

I agree with John 100% about the difference between the VD and the more natural Stealth Dreams.

The Silent Source Power Cord ( $900.00 ) is not well known, but a real sleeper that you might try. This is the blackest, most revealing and most true sounding tonally power cord I've ever heard.

In my system, I went with the Dream State Spritual Dream series ( Lucid, Veridical and DreamCatcher ). They're warmer than the Stealth Dreams and work extremely well for me. IF you have Dream State power cords on EVERY component, the soundstage is a hologram.

You stated and asked: "Further, it's not like I'm saying somebody elses cord wouldn't yield a similar result.--

Being audiophile upgrade addicts, we were trying to give you our thoughts on the VD power cords that we had and the paths that we took from there.

Sorry to have been a "Kill-Joy".
