ABX testing with AQ Dragon power cords
Yes, but only with the Dragons. I'm returning them on Tuesday so I plan to listen to them for 2 days and then swap back for a couple.

I guess that's why blind comparisons are better.

I'd been considering a PS Audio 12 or AQ Niagara 5000.

Way ahead of you. I already moved them both to the wall and compared again. No change in sound but I'll continue tomorrow. But it's a power bar, the two units draw <2 amps, nothing else but this system is on the circuit, how is it being choked?...

Oh relax. I put an ammeter on the surge protector that the amp & pre are plugged into and while playing music at my typical level they were drawing under 2 amps. The unit next to the Lumin is the Sbooster power supply as detailed in the OP.

I've moved the speakers out & closer a bit. The center of the speaker is now 55" from the back wall. The speaker centers are 82" apart and the listening position is 82" from the center of each speaker. I listened for awhile & I do like the...

@zuesman I’m talking about the wall behind the speakers too. The front edge of the speakers is 4 feet from the wall behind them. But I’ll give it a try later today & move them another foot from the wall, change the toe-in and see what I think.

@zuesman The front edge of the speaker is 4' from the wall. I've tried other positions and this was the best for me. There is a 7" monster bass trap behind each speaker and a 17" square soffit trap in the corner. The soundstage is great.

@audphile1 The owner of the amp/cable company heard no difference. He still thinks that there is a reason for it and is working to help me determine why. Unlike you, my mind is not closed to other opinions. I have no skin in this game, my ego does...

@rodman99999 If I believe in science to determine whether cables make a difference you say I'm in a cult. If I trust my ears and audition cables and decide there is no difference you ignore that and c/p reams of arguments that have nothing to do w...

I am?                    Thank you for telling me how I feel!        The shouting caps and repeated reference to the Church of Naysayers were my clues. That's not typically how calm differences of opinion are discussed.

When your proof relies on such words as speculations,  seems likely (at least to me), lends credence, I would hope it's a given, just seems to me, not a big stretch to believe, I haven't tested this, it wouldn't surprise me.. you know you're speak...

@rodman99999 I did exactly what you’re describing, I didn’t take anyone’s word for it, no one told me what to expect, I experimented with new cables 3x now and found no difference. I trusted my own senses. Yet still you’re pissed off at me for doc... 
ABX testing with AQ Dragon power cords
You posted a ton of it no doubt. You called me a liar, misstated what I'd posted repeatedly and I addressed every question, every lie and still you’re not happy. Just imagine if I’m right about the identical nature of these cables how much money ... 
ABX testing with AQ Dragon power cords
Yes, let’s. First you refer to my experience as lies yet keep telling this $80k lie even after I corrected you.The Transparent Super speaker cables cost $2,200 and the two pairs of Super XLR cables sell for $1,600 each. The Dragons sounded the sa...
