sound difference MIT ORACLE AC1 vs ELROD vs PURIST
I mean that the addition of each Elrod's power cord adds more features, according to a cumulative effect. The fact which a power cable may affect in so higher manner the sonic performance of the components, i think depend by many factors. First, t... 
sound difference MIT ORACLE AC1 vs ELROD vs PURIST
I had few time to test the cable but the first impressions have been confirmed. Sound scene is more open and detailed. High frequencies are "real", not harsh. The sound image as a whole seems to be more deeper, larger and palpable. Many users in t...

Zephyr24069, I see in your system (which is great) you use all Elrod's cables. I have all spectral gears so MIT cables are the best I ever heard. May you describe the improvement you found introducing interconnecting cables?thanks 
sound difference MIT ORACLE AC1 vs ELROD vs PURIST
dear Highend4me, as you know hi-end is like "esoteric". You "feel" sometimes the music instead to "hear" the music. I was skeptical that a power cord, was able to change the sound. It is obvious that if you listen to music while running in the hou...

finally I received the EPS-2 Signature.This cable seams to be magic. I compared it to the Magnum AC and Elrod seems to give more depth and more body to the sound. The cable is connected to the Quantum QB8 Distribution. Kharma speakers seem, even m...

thanks,I will try to use it as input of my Quantum distributor and then switch to Berkeley.I will test it to replace the quantum cable which I found very attractive in term of lower bass extension.It is incredible how the power cables can modify a...

Thanks Linkster,I acquired the ones which Zmanastronomy suggested me here on Audiogon. I Will test it and then I Will write here my notes.one more question, the Elrod PC,s are specialized with regards to the components ? ( like Stealth for example... 
sound difference MIT ORACLE AC1 vs ELROD vs PURIST
I noticed that especially the BADA is subject to the modifications induced in the power cord. With the assumption that the final result also depends by the system as a whole, but what kind of change can be described with the addition of Elrod? or ...

Dear John & Richard,thanks for your kindly response.Currently I use a MIT Magnum AC1 to the Quantum QB8 Distribution. From the distributor to BADA and Spectral, two Quantum PC's (which I found as excellent price/quality ratio).I prefer more da... 
Why do digital cables sound different?
After 11 years this thread is still alive. I didn't read all the response but I try to give you my contribution. I think The hirez music could have impact on the digital cable position into the system chain. The high frequencies and the amount of ... 
Best Amp for Magnepan 1.7?
I drive my new 1.7 with Spectral DMA 150S2 directly coupled to a Berkeley Alpha. MIT Magnum M1 (interconnect and speaker) as cables. The result is fantastic. I compared it to ASR Emitter I, the Spectral is better in all the spectrum. Spectral are ...
