Review Audioquest Hurricane (part 2)
After a long talk with Audioquest, I decided to order another Hurricane in lieu of the Dragon. If I had the money I would have purchased five Dragon power cords, but I submit four Hurricanes and one Tornado is a good compromise. I pray that I’m done! 
Audioquest Niagara 5000 or 7000
Maybe some think made in or assembled in China some how makes the component inferior to components made in the USA?  
Torus or Furman power conditioners which is better?
Sorry I can't answer your question directly.  I will say I went from the Torus RM15 to the RM20.  I submit it should be very easy to hear the differences between the two, with the RM20 providing a more natural,  dynamic sound.

I decided to borrow another Audioquest Tornado to go from my preamp to the power conditioner. I didn't expect much, because I already have three Audioquest cords, but I was wrong. So wrong, I decided to purchase one 15 amp Dragon source power cord...

hicr49, To be honest I didn't have the opportunity to compare the Hurricane, Tornado, and Thunder to each other. 
What Center Channel are you using in your Home Theater?
My experience suggest that it's very important to match the center channel to the fronts. I went from the Monitor Audio PLC150, to a Gold C350, to a PLC350. I have Monitor Audio PL500s as my fronts and it just didn't sound good with the PLC150 and...

So, I ordered two Hurricane power cords and one Tornado. I have one Hurricane going from my amp to the power conditioner and one from the power conditioner to the wall(Shunyata outlet). I use the Tornado on my DAC. I want to be as succinct as poss... 
Antipodes DX or Aurender N10?
I’ve compared the Antipodes DS GT to the DX generation 2. I preferred the DS GT and submit it’s a much better value than the DX gen 2. I haven’t heard the DX gen 3 yet. I hope to have one soon.  
Power Cord
Scott,Thanks! Yes, I've had Wireworld in my system for a year or so and agree that there are better choices for my system. There are just so many options out there, is very hard to find the right cables and power cords in my price range that has s...

Review Audioquest Hurricane (part 2)
oem-wheels,I agree about the improvements in sound...more to come. I want to be honest in my assessment; therefore I must talk about their weaknesses too. My dealer told me to take a piece of electrical tape and put it on the plug to get a tighter... 
Power Cord
Done with power cords. I purchased two Audioquest Hurricane power cords and one Audioquest Tornado power cord. I will order one more Hurricane in a couple of weeks. 
Review Audioquest Hurricane (part 2)
chazzzy007,Thanks! I will post my thoughts by the end of the week. A couple things for now; the Hurricane is very stiff and unfortunately the IEC plug doesn't have a tight grip which exacerbates the stiffness. My friend has the Hurricane and he th...

Replacing my power cords with Audioquest Hurricane power cords is one of the best upgrades I've done. It's the icing on the cake for my system. 
Review Audioquest Hurricane (part 2)
I received one of two Hurricane cords that I ordered. I should have the second one on Monday and the Tornado I ordered by Friday. My system isn't connected at the moment, so I won’t have any feedback for a couple weeks.
