I like the Pangeas in general but do prefer the AC-14s reterminated (not that it's easy to reterminate the AC9SEs, obviously). I use the same Furutech FI-11 Cu models that you do.
Bob offered the power cable with a choice of no-termination at the AC connector, which I opted for, and therein lay a problem. When I got it and put the Furutech connector on it, my continuity tester didn't like the result. Seems the red Chinese AC and IEC connectors he uses are labeled "backwards." That is, the L (Line) and N (Neutral) pin indicators are reversed. This doesn't matter if you're using these things on both ends of the cable, but it sure matters if you're just replacing them at one end of the cable. I had a hell of a time trying to explain this to Bob. Eventually I switched wires to the original IEC end -- the one that came with the cable -- and all was well. Should have used the Furutechs on BOTH ends and probably will.
The cable is currently linking my deHavilland 222 tapehead preamp to a PS Audio P10 power regenerator after bombing out on the link from an Aesthetix Calypso linestage to the P10. By bombing out I mean that it seemed to make everything connected to the Calypso take 1-2 sonic steps backward. Really blah.
