Coincident Dragon MK I vs MK II
Kudos to Sablon Audio! I have been listening to the new version Gran Corona power cords on my Coincident Dragons and I'm hearing at least a 40-50% improvement. I didn't know how flat and asleep my stereo sounded until I began using these power cor...

I'm in Ashland. Anybody else from Southern Oregon? 
Coincident Dragon MK I vs MK II
Charles,That's right. When I tried the MHDT Stockholm dac, I came closer to hearing what I was missing. So I decided to keep the Dragons. As mentioned already, the Dragons are true to the source. The MHDT is still not quite where I want it to be y... 
Coincident Dragon MK I vs MK II
My sub is in the shop getting repaired. I decided to keep the Dragons and I'm trying a different dac to bring more organic warmth. I've now got an MHDT Stockholm that is delivering this in spades, maybe a little too much. I think I can tweak the M...

Porter Ports or Cabledyne Cryo Hubbell 5362
Another vote for the Porter Ports here. It was the best $36 I'd ever spent on my system. I was shocked at the improvement that it provided over the cheapo stock wall sockets. 
Power cord recommendation for DAC
How did the HD3 compare w/the Grover? 
Visualize the music....
I like it. 
Which USB to S/PDIF converter with Metrum Octave?
Lewinskih01, I would highly recommend the Off Ramp. I've bought my OR4 since April and it took my dac to a whole new level of performance. There is an OR4 that just popped up here on audiogon. I know it is more than your budget, but I'm sure you c...
