In Reply to: Where to use a good IC. posted by claud on October 9, 2016 at 17:10:49:
Like when I bought some more power cords.. So some were 'regular' and some 'upgraded/deluxe" versions.
The only way to decide was to try out the powercords in various places.
I was surprised where some upgraded ones were best! And where they made the sound worse...
In the same way, trying out for yourself is the only way.
One suggestion is to place your new cord in the current one's position. and use the old better one to experiment.
Then you are testing with a well broken in IC... Instead of a brand new one. (You already know about that position and the better IC benefits there)I recently bought a new IC, liked it and have more on the way.
I plan to check out where the new ones could work out best.
