OP, I wouldn't go with Hurricane (too steep a loss in treble but I assume you know that) or Cardas Clear (too fuzzy, from choke I presume). I've heard Clear Beyond XL is better and it shoudl be. I agree amp has most effect, but my Aries is affected by PCs about as much as my DDC which is < DAC < amp. Since you say it was the Bryston that caused this change in sound, then I think fuse and PC are good to try. You can swap out one of your better cords elsewhere and then swap that onto the Bryston just to see for yourself what changes they would make with the streamer. Any decent repair place could replace the fuse for you, but would void any warranty. The newer v2 Shunyayta's might be good, and I was looking at Kubala, Audience, RSX and GR Research's 2 PC options which are also money back. I have an older The Statement PC too, and use it on my sub. It's better than stock or cheap PCs and has a nice tonal balance but it's downside is resolution. A little fuzzy but not as fuzzy as Cardas Clear. Hope this helps. Ignore the the Objectivists unless you want to encourage another debate on cables here. :)
Quick Question About Power Cables
Hi All,
I recently bought a Bryston BDP 3 streamer/renderer and love how refined and relaxed it sounds. I would like it more if the bass was a bit more controlled and had a little more impact. A friend and Audiogon member suggested I try an Audio Sensability Statement Power Cable. He bought one for his tube DAC and said the bass got tighter an offered better slam. Anyway, for those who are PC savy, what are your thoughts on the matter? Thanks!
