In Reply to: REVIEW: MSA's Giant-Killer Power Cord @$139 posted by Winston Smith on June 18, 2014 at 19:53:22:
I find this "review" to be a little over the top. I agree that better PC's can lend subtle improvements, but during 45 years of audio interests, I have never heard ANY passive or active component do what you claim this power cord does.Can a "leap forward" be "massive"?
I would never own any music, piano or otherwise, that makes me say "OW" and cover my ears for any reason at any level of playback. There is nothing benign about a product that magically makes crappy recordings sound good.
By the way, you forgot to mention how much this thing costs. If it's as good as you claim it is, I might try one on my microwave to see if it will turn hamburger into steak.
Seriously, if you toned this down a little, some tempered enthusiasm would lend credence to your opinion. As it stands, you seem close to coming unhinged over a miraculous power cord, and generally such an extreme perspective doesn't persuade anyone to accept your endorsement.
Peace,
