Topping D50 vs the "Big Boys"
Read all the different Amazon Topping listings with a 1 rating and you will see exactly what I said. That’s all. I was going to order one, but decided against it. From units buzzing, not working as they should, DOA etc....it’s all there.  One list... 
Topping D50 vs the "Big Boys"
Read the amazon reviews.  Many units just don’t work or work properly.  DOA or after a week or so.

No issues at all.   Just the opposite......better sounding music!

Yes Doug.  I have made quite a few of these for folks and I also use them now.  I like the greater sense of ease and control as well as the improved mid to deep bass foundation and larger stage size in all directions!

I have built and sold many of these SM ICs to users of class D amps and not one issue!  
I wonder why......
If the stock cords sound as good as the big dollar ones, then I am sitting on a gold mine! Have to go now and list some nice power cords.... 
I wonder why......
What lengths should they make? Then they have to design and build the cables when they are not cable makers. Then they have to charge for it? Adds cost to an already high priced product!  Then we Aphiles will say we prefer the one we have or anoth... 
Caveat about the Cable Company return policy
I also was frustrated as they seem to stock very little and have  long lead times.  I have moved onto other vendors that can turn my orders around faster.

Oh my, so sorry to hear this.  I enjoyed conversations with him and a set of his speakers.  
Crossover Capacitors for Accuton Tweeters - Solen -> ClarityCap -> Jupiter -> Duelund
Cal7313, I am most happy for you! I realize it is risky to spend big money on a part that you were not 100% sure would deliver the sonic goods you hoped for and expected. Turned out to be a great investment in your enjoyment of music. Good for you! 
Crossover Capacitors for Accuton Tweeters - Solen -> ClarityCap -> Jupiter -> Duelund
The new Duelund tinned copper CAST caps are easily the finest sounding capacitor I have heard. They are fantastic and to my ear significantly better than the standard CAST Duelund Capacitor and Jupiter copper foils.  However, they are so darn expe... 
Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord?
Thanks Al. My real point is the outlet’s AC voltage varies that much anyway. At least every home I havelived in. It varies that much at day and evening. Also, in my past tube builds that have voltage regulated B+ power supplies, they held the VDC ...

Your gear may and should be voltage regulated so you should not hear any difference with a 3-5 vac change.  Voltage from our home outlets often vary that much throughout the day and night. .
