Thanks Robin, Your kind comments are very much appreciated.

Yeah, it's difficult to see me chopping-and-changing either. The P3 is so good in my setup that the chances of screwing things up seem greater than the chances of gaining a slight improvement, so I'll probably leave well alone for the time being. That sets a bad precedent for an avowed tweaker, but sometimes you have to recognize when enough's enough... :-)

The Power Port wasn't a bad product, but I agree it could be bright and harsh. It was very fussy about which cables you connected to it and (surprise! surprise!) I found PS Audio's own brand to work best here. The P3 is by far the better product, though.

The thing is: when do you stop? I've got a P-1000 Power Plant that has five old Power Ports round the back. Will things get even better if I replace them? My experience with the first P3 suggests yes, but My God! The price! It's thoughts like that that'll kill ya every time :-0

Thanks again
