Voodoo Evolution Speaker Cable Review
I see this is an old post but of specific interest. Mind if I ask what you are running for power cords? I recently swapped out my Voodoo Vision power cords from my receiver and amplifier to Shunyata Delta NR on both. I am happy with the Shunyata b... 
Dynamics and resolution...
@douglas_schroeder I reread the article. I see there was a voiced concern in regards to going this route between active preamp and amplifier. It appears you were using a passive preamp at the time. Have you since then experimented with active prea... 
Dynamics and resolution...
@douglas_schroeder I do remember reading a write up in regards to doubling the interconnects. Quite possibly yours. AQ adaptors using half twist to even out signal travel distance if that's the one.  I wanted to experiment with it quite badly. My ...

@bryhifi Looking in to the Audio Art. Thanks. @enaud I only use the Venom HC to power my Shunyata PS8. Stepping up to the Delta NR line on my receiver and amplifier has had an enormous difference.

@dave_b Exactly which $4000 power cord and what $12000 interconnects did the Anticables beat out? 
Dynamics and resolution...
@dave_b I had noticed/read about the Anticables over this past winter. My concern with them is simple lack of shielding. In my system everything is in close quarters. When I contacted Anticables to ask two questions one in regards to a direct comp... 
Overwhelmed and under experienced...
I am using a dedicated 20 amp circuit. Components are run through a Shunyata PS8. The PS8 and amplifier are both plugged in to a CruzeFIRST receptrical. @itsjustme You say run a "GOOD" outlet strip. Do you not consider the Shunyata PS8 to be a goo... 
Any voodoo power cable users
Few things I forgot to mention. 1. These are quite large cables. 8 and 10 AWG construction and heavily shielded. 2. These cables do not comfortably make tight turns. If considering one either be sure you have room or have them terminated with 90° ... 
Any voodoo power cable users
I use two in my system at the moment. Jusssttt pulled the trigger on a third 10 minutes ago.I have a Voodoo Powerwave on my subwoofer. I purchased it at $250 directly from Voodoo. It's at closeout price. Probably discontinued. I originally purchas...

@falconquest I have been curious about any benefit that could be had from running all the same manufacturers wires and cables. I've only heard reference to doing so a couple of times. Never came across where there were individuals truly touting th...

@erik_squires I do realize room acoustics play a much larger roll than most people realize, but this system is in our main living area and used daily. Thankfully there are a few helpful things going for it, large floor rug to help control first re... 
Cable upgrade path...
@lak Curious what cable you switched out for the Voodoo and what your thoughts are afterward? 
Cable upgrade path...
@ lak In regards to the Forte F3 cables. I was thinking that may have been one issue as well, so today I contacted The Cable Company to inform them I am returning them. I am replacing them with Voodoo Ultra Wave power cords. The Voodoo Ultra Wave ... 
New to audiophile and need HELP.
A couple of thoughts/suggestions:First, it sound like I'm similar to you. Though many find it very odd, I listen to everything from Chopin to Korn to Deadmau5. When building the system I use in my living room and use  every day I researched the he... 
Tekton Double Impact vs. Vandersteen 2ce sig II
Though the Vandys were most definitely on my list of "if I ever see a deal on some" I can say by the time I did it was to late. I had already bought my first set of Tektons. First, Eric Alexander and his team are fantastic to work with. The very f...
