for the BoK power cord

This is just a note from a former skeptic of power cord claims. After all, how could a cord do anything unless the stock cord was under sized? Even so, I would expect only an improvement in bass (high current). So when I sat down to audition this cord with its money back guarantee, I was fully prepared to be utterly disappointed and be sending it right back. But instead I was stunned. Background quiet, focus, bass definition, detail, imaging, extension - all significantly improved. Who's stereo was this anyway? I wish I could say more but I have no other reference than the stock cord.

Product Weakness:	How?
Product Strengths:	It works!
