Spectral DMC 30SS& DMA 250, need advice

Great! Happy listening!

I suggest you listen and then decide. Spectral is particular about interconnects, at least so they say, but from what I know, not with power cords. I had the same DMC 30 with the 360 monos and used other pcs with good effect. Cannnot recall which though.

Again - sorry gentlemen to partly disagree - Spectral also loves other cords. I've lived with Spectral for a long time, have used their cords and still have their power conditioning but have found that Spectral's love can be fickle, as far as powercords are concerned. They live happily in sin with other wire as well. So Teddy bear don't worry, experiment and use your ears.

Keithr, please forgive me, but what would you expect them to say: "Yes please use a powercord from our competition". Do you really believe that? Whatever, this is powercords not interconnects and even there, I remember when the Spectral 360 monos were being reviewed by Harry Pearson of the Absolute Sound many years ago, against all warnings, he used Nordost ics with good effect.....and so did I for many years and only switched to MIT later, thanks to the good services of Equus Audio, because I preferred the sound. Not so with powercords though, wished I could remember which I used. All I remember is that I used Bybee tails on them with good effect.

My apologies Keith, I see your point of course.
Teddy, I am not familiar with those cables. the SC's are nothing to worry about, it is the IC's Spectral is warning about. If I were in your shoes, I'd try those IC's softly at first at low SPL and see what happens. Probably nothing, but then you can never be sure. Maybe follow Keith's advice after all, or get in touch with Joe Abrams of Equus Audio. He advertises here on A. He is very kind and helpful. Give him my regards and say I sent you.
Cheers,

I had hoped someone other would have taken this up, but then:
Teddy, These networks MIT uses to voice their SCs with. But then you can use any other decent SCs with your gear, as my experience has shown. I had used MIT but also NordOst. If in doubt, ask Joe, as I had suggested before and give him my regards.
