I have the opportunity to purchase a Crystal Cable Crystalpower Standard power cable at a very good price. Has anyone here tried it ? It would replace a 3 week of Shunyata Venom HC which I am currently using. Last night I had the chance to try the Shunyata Digital power cable (which is a step up from the Venom HC) and immediately there was a sense of bigger soundstage and better imaging. I suspect the Crystalpower Standard power cable would be just that much better than any of these two cables and probably kick it up a notch or two.
While I haven't tried the CrystalPower Standard I use Crystal Cables Dreamline & Ultra exclusively on power, speakers, analog/digital IC's and XLR's. All terminated with Furutech carbon fibre rhodium plated terminations. Since 2009 its been the only cable/cord brand I use. Reason being, once you try one you're ruined for anything/everything else! My cable collection now would cost well over $85k to replace with new but I've only ever paid retail once and that was the original. Simply put, the best I've ever used hands-down on EVERYTHING they make! Only config I don't have CC's for is Toslink.
If you can buy it "right" I say go for it!
