Question for Acrolink / Mexcell power cord owners ; especially the 7N PC 9900 model


Hello Audiogoners - a quick question on the above mentioned power cord. I am looking into this power cord for my Esoteric Grandioso K1x CD player and would like to know your thoughts on the sonic characteristics of this power cord. If you have listened to it please let me know and if you did not buy one and possibly went with something I would also appreciate that information. Thank you in advance.

Your Grandioso has internal wiring made by Acrolink.  The cable you are speaking about is way too rich for my blood but the Acrolink 4030 power cord made a huge difference for the better of my Esoteric UX3.  I also use a pair of Acrolink mid priced RCA audio cables and a mid priced Acrolink digital cable and they were the best I heard for the money. If you can afford the cable, you can’t go wrong. 

@garebear ,

Congratulations on retirement and the Grandioso, it is the top tier of Esoteric. The Acrolink cables are very special. I will say after installing the power cord and interconnects, my bass was even tighter than it had been and there was a richness to the sound that wasn’t fully there before. I do not like analytical and the Acrolink doesn’t fall into that category. I wish I could afford to wire my entire system with them but the cost would be astronomical.   I tried the Cable Co. but found it to be a waste of time.  I bought mine used from here.  I bought the power cord from Perotta Consulting and the interconnects from a store in Canada.  The digital cable came from a private seller here.
