'A LITTLE OVERPRICED'
Strengths:
It does improve the sound. Russ andrews customer service flexibility.
Weaknesses:
Overpriced.
Overall:
In it's day this was a breakthrough product. It's basically TC speaker cable wired in to a mains plug/IEC and uses the Kimber weave to reduce EMI/RFI interference.

Using the cable versus a stock cable you get a clearer sound with less background noise and some valve amps will suffer less from hum.

Time has moved on and there is a lot of competition at this price level. You might think about Kemp as an alternative and also Black Rhodium.

The thing that it does have in it's favour is Russ Andrews customer service. They will provide alternative terminations such as Male to female IEC so that you can daisy chain your Quad amps. Most manufacturers will not provide this.
