No but I use Zu Audio Mission Power Cords everywhere except for a Running Springs Mongoose from my Power Conditioner to the wall outlet. Mark.

Hi Mark. Did they make a big difference compared to the stock cords? ZU is selling them on EBay and they can be had pretty cheap.

Thanks, Geno

I know, all mine were bought on ebay. I had started with the Decware silver PCs but was having problems with a Hot high end..too bright. Getting the Missions was part of the process to correct that. It's been too long to remember if there was a difference. I have always thought that PCs make the least difference...after all what about all the wiring before the outlet etc. Probably just an excuse to not spend a bunch of money on PCs :). Now I do think interconnects and speaker cables make a difference and have spent a lot for mine.

Bottom line, the Zu Audio Mission PCs get the job done and it satisfies my need not to settle for stock cords. I have no desire to upgrade the PCs and when I have a new piece of gear and need a PC...I buy another Mission. Now there are many here who'll disagree and have spent thousands on PCs...ask my good friend Lon :). Hope this helps. Mark.

Hi,

All my cables are from Zu. I have their Event mk1 power cables on all my system components and their Mission mk2 XLR and RCA for all interconnects. I"m also using their Mission mk2 digital coaxial and AES cables for all of my dacs. I'm very satisfied with them and I think for the money they are hard to beat. They started out as a specialty hi-fi cable company before branching out so they know their cables.

However Zu has recently gone to a worldwide distribution network and have raised the cost on most of their line. Its still worth it I think but something to think about. If you can get it for cheap on Ebay from them, definitely go for it.

That’s good to hear Kevin. Depending on whose bidding, I might be able to get the Event power cable for just over $100. ;D

Thanks, Gene

Good thoughts, all of them.
Being a “LearnOphile” I want to establish a base. I’ll be in search of a few more DHC-1’s, and one DSR.
Please let me know if you’re interested in moving to a solution, and would like to move the stuff you have.

Best,
Scott
