Other than a butt-ugly DBS, the build quality of the Thunder is outstanding; a really attractive cable that even looks like a great value in its market segment. Very confidence inspiring to replace whatever you had in your system with one of these!
I put a Thunder on my ma252 a few weeks ago. The DBS doesn't really bother me it's hidden behind the amp under a desk. I had a hard time justifying a $600 power cord on an amp that was only about $3,500. But I viewed it as investing in a power cord that was almost like a power conditioner and cord in one. I think that it works great and I am not looking to add any other power conditioning. 20181006_120754.jpeg
