I haven’t tried Audience PCs in my system. As the guy who put the Premium Power Cord survey together a few months back, it put a big smile on my face to see contributors with exceptional systems (and pretty good ears) taking a deep dive into the sonic characteristics of some of the best examples of premium PCs on the market. Well done. Thank you. |
This is a test, trying to reproduce blocking of a post I tried to submit a couple of hours ago. That post included this link, which although dated, reviews 27 power cords, including Audience and Audioquest. https://audiobacon.net/2019/08/17/27-audiophile-power-cables-reviewed/ |
Okay, it posted, so now I'll rewrite the text I lost the first time: I have lots of experience with Audience cords and cables, rising from the SE's through SX's to a full loom of Front Rows over several years. Every change brought significant improvement. But I don't have any experience with the more advances Audioquest cables, so I can't offer comparisons. However, after I got to a full loom of Front Rows, I tried one Snake River Signature Amp cord. (See the review above of 27 power cords, which persuaded me to try one.) Swapped in place of a Front Row power cord, the Snake River yielded a dramatic improvement - clearer air, much more depth and dimensionality, cleaner and less bloated images (I hadn't heard the bloat prior to this comparison), and high definition way into the back of sound stage. It was as if someone turned on the lights back there and suddenly I could see the drum kit in detail. Then I gradually replaced the whole loom with Snake River Signature cords, getting the same kind of improvement every time. And I sold the Front Rows as I went, pocketing a nice dividend because the SR's were significantly cheaper than even used Front Row prices. |
