He made me a very custom power cable that feeds the Devialet with one 'tail' and the two Sonos boxes with two other 'tails', all connected to the same wall plug. It clearly beats the Audioquest Z3 in my system.
I mean running anything in the lineup with a Z3 is doing the amp a disservice. But I believe it!
I was the OP for the AQ Z3 thread and have no issue with the product nor with any peeps that may be disinterested in it but your consistent and negative posts about this particular cable are odd and, to me, suspicious.
When used in a D440 monoblock system served by a Niagara 5000 to a pair of Magico Q3's in dedicated sound room (in wall dedicated 10 amp wire twisted between studs as per MSB recommends) the level of improvement was immediate and undeniable.
Your continual negativity does a disservice to all the posters on this site that have easily heard these improvements and this may unfairly dissuade someone from simply having a listen. Your recommend of the Shunyata entry level PC as an superior cable is, to my mind and experience, just laughable.
