Hi
,
not sure if this will help with supplies, if it is the same cable, this company claims to be able to supply 1000000 metres of it a day!

Even if not exactly the same, they may be able to help.
all the best. Guy

I may have had the first Mk3 in the wild, with the 16A IEC the Chord Power Amp needs.
That was a huge jump in SQ, but from a vanilla, Chord original lead so it had to be better, but it did come as a huge surprise.
Acid test came yesterday when freshly fettled Ultimate Mk3s arrived.
A very stiff 2.6 cable version and the normal.
This was the high spot of a crap day yesterday and I almost didn't plug them in.
(apart from waking up of course, that's always good and a lot better than the alternative)
So a short session, more to come Sunday
System warmed up nicely for a good couple of hours.
Test with Kimber Signature running the P10.
Good.
Change to old style Ultimate
Wow. That is a huge jump up in SQ for sure. Great opening of the whole soundstage.
- This is a mains cable running a mains regenerator - crazy or what.
Change to Mk3 Ultimate
Ooh nice, like that extra detail, the sound was masked before, now revealed even more clearly.
Change to Mk3 Ultimate 2.6 cable
Small increase in SQ, well worth having.
2nd round
Isis CDP wth Kimber Signature- very nice
Change to Mk3 Ultimate
Oh just wonderful.
<internal voice> You are knackered, must go to bed
<other internal voice> keep listening !
Few more tracks and I called it a night
This morning a bit more with
Mountain Goats and Gary Numan - there's stuff going on there I haven't heard before
Felt like I was sitting in with Mountain Goats
Tomorrow will be very nice

Great, Mike, mirrors my findings exactly. The combination of carbon braid and filters are doing something for sound quality, which is amazing given that you and I both run regenerators. There's a lot to power treatment that we don't yet fully understand.
