Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord?
benzman,Yeah as much as I liked the PS P-10 the CPT 1800 is much better. It is smaller, lighter and boy does it improve Video and Audio. Now, I’m probably part of a lunatic fringe when it comes to power products. At my breaker box, I have the Mad ...

glory,I owned the Nordost items you mentioned. The CPT 1800 is a different animal and yes, you will really like it even with the Nordost "stuff"I am using a Pass Labs X350.5 with my 1800 and the CPT 1800 makes it sing!ozzy

bassdude, Thanks, I will look into your suggestions.The Audio room is in the basement with a carpet (no padding) over concrete. The stands have some serious pointy spikes.

Thanks for all the great suggestions.How about using some self sticking feet that are stuck to the bottom of the speaker so that they fit on each side of the top stand plate on the outer edges? What would work is something that sticks pretty well ...

Thanks soix, I have lots of Blue Tack so it can't hurt to use this along with my Herbie big fat dots.(love the name). BTW, I super glued the bottom of the Herbies to the metal top of the stand.steakster,What did you find worked best?ozzy

Thanks for the suggestions. My DIY cabinets are not quite so DIY. I purchased them in a high gloss finish with tapered sides. I mounted dual speaker posts in the back for bi-wiring. To enhance possible future tweaking options, I made custom boxes ...

Bob,I owned a Audiodharma cable cooker for years. With some cables, break in can be terrible due to sharp, tinny, closed in sound. Thus, making them too tough to listen to until they are broken in. But your cables sound pretty nice from the start ...
