DCCA or Shunyata help?


I've realized quite a nice increase in detail after installing some NOS tubes in my 300b integrated amp. Now, I've kind of got it in my head that this improvement has revealed a need to upgrade power cords. I'm currently using an older Shunyata Taipan and am looking hard at a DCCA Eminence PC. Any shared experiences and thoughts on these products will be appreciated. Also, I'm more than willing to hear that I should stay put.

Horchai,

I started with the DCCA Eminence on my preamp which is an audio horizons 2.2 and then added one to my DAC which is also an Audio Horizons 3.1. It was a cumulative effect as I added one and then two of these to my system. I then moved to my amplifiers which are Canary CA160 (EL34 based amps) and WOW the bass really fleshed out as well as an overall increase in soundstaging.

I am using Merlin VSM-MME's which are extremely revealing speakers so it isn't hard to hear changes made to my system....both positive and negative.

My room is 14' wide by 20' long and with the Eminence (after about 200 hours of break in) added to the amps the soundstaging expanded to virtually be from side wall to side wall on some recording. It was pretty darn amazing to hear the differences.

I still have one more Eminence to buy for my transport but as you have stated at $1k per cord it isn't cheap to continue to make these upgrades.
I would like to say if you are looking for the magic with just one Eminence power cord in your system to use it on your source component. I think you will find the greatest sound improvement in this position. I would also like to say that one of the problems I have had in the past was maybe the speed/pace of my power cords were somewhat off...slow to a point maybe...corrected that issue with the Eminence's design. Detail is also much more present in this new design without losing the body and weight in the sound....which was a key factor of creating this sound...not to lose...just to gain in all areas.

another note, I can also tonally adjust the Eminence to: warmish & lush, neutral or best of both. The choice is yours!
