Elrod vs MIT
Glide3, You are absolutely right. I should have elaborated a bit more. My suggestion was meant only if Nirodha35 is not able to get a comparison (direct or indirect) between the MIT and Elrod. In that event, I didn't say my suggestion "will" be he... 
Elrod vs MIT
Nirodha35, I've been extremely happy with the Elrod Statement Gold power cords which I reviewed last year. (http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?fcabl&1243482931&openmine&zzPuremusic&4&5) In the last 3 paragraphs of my revie... 
PC: KS Elation, Elrod or Stealth?
Jfz,Although there is some overlap between the sonic benefits of signal carrying components and the non-signal carrying ones, it's like comparing apples with oranges. So, the way I try to compare them is to ask "Is the degree of improvement result... 
PC: KS Elation, Elrod or Stealth?
I will cut the chase short: Powercords must be last thing you may deal as long as you setup a system.......before reducing EM/RFI, we need to match electronics and speaker, then interconnects, speaker cables........the voltage must come before the... 
PC: KS Elation, Elrod or Stealth?
If result is a jaw dropping, or night or day, hell or paradise, then, it means something wrong(not matched) particular electronics.Mert, Among other things, it could *also* mean that the specific technology designed into the power cord to reduce E... 
PC: KS Elation, Elrod or Stealth?
they act as equalizersArgyro,What is *wrong* with even the super high-end audio systems is the contaminated AC and an atmosphere full of RFI. And the high-end market is full of products, including conditioners and special power cords, that are aim...

Mert,Congratulations on recognizing that every aspect of the electrical system can influence the sonic presentation. You obviously have an open mind and are willing to experiment. I've been chasing the electrical culprits for the past two decades.... 
PC: KS Elation, Elrod or Stealth?
I agree with Mert. If powercords change your sound so much, you either have a problem with your system or the powercords act as equalizers somehow...Argyro, It seems to me that you agree with Mert's first post but not his secord post. In his secon...

Correction to a typo in my first post above: I have 3 Golds not 5.Mert, In your first post, you wrote:if powercords change the things such a magnitude that you describe, it means something quite wrong with your setups!However, in your second post,...

if powercords change the things such a magnitude that you describe, it means something quite wrong with your setups!Mert, The components Newly listed in his system are highly resolving as are those in my system (listed in the link above). Generall... 
PC: KS Elation, Elrod or Stealth?
Newly, Last year I replaced 5 of my Elrod Statement power cords with the new Elrod Statement Golds and was shocked at the phenomenal improvement. For detailed observations, see my review "Elrod Statement Gold PC compared to the old Statement":http... 
The Hub: Futterman H3: Seen one lately?
Two decades ago, when I was upgrading my audio system, I traveled to New York to audition varies components at several high-end dealers. Someone suggested I should hear the Futterman OTL. Until then, I never heard of it or of Julius, Harvey, or Ge... 
Wilson Audio speaker jacks
I found the Wilson jack extremely useful for precise placement and toe-in of my Maxx2 speakers. You can roll the speakers on their casters to optimal positions but when you go to replace the casters with spikes without using the jack, you will nee... 
Let's hear about Elrods new Silver or Gold cables
Simontju, "liquidity, finesse.....ultra transparency" That describes my experience with the Gold PCs as well.John 
Elrod Statement Gold PC compared to old Statement
Bostonbean, I can relate to your predicament upon your initial audition of the Gold Statements: "I just about wet myself it sounded so beatiful." You're in for even a greater treat as they break-in. I agree with Robert that "you haven't heard noth...
