for the Flavors 1, 2, and 3


I just received my 3rd Flavor 2 power cord, and my fourth VHAudio product total. This Flavor 2 is also the cyro'ed version with the gold furutech connectors, and will be used with my preamp. I'm using the other Flavor 2 cords with my amps. When I first installed the Flavor 2's, I noticed how the soundstage became smaller. Once the cables broke in (somewhere around 200 hours), the soundstage came back , along with better dynamics, tighter bass, and better extension.
Construction quality is first-rate, and Chris is excellent to his customers. After I spend some time with my new cable, I plan on trying his other cables made specifically for digital components.


Product Weakness: Nothing really except for break in period, which is not a weakness
Product Strengths: Dynamics and construction qualtity are excellent
