It also surprises me a little how silver cables can sound. Many claim that silver sounds bright and thin. Probably from those who haven’t tried it yet. Silver-plated copper may have this effect in the wrong place. I think there are other factors at play as well. My old XLR Berendssen silver cable and also an Audioquest wild blue yonder played very warm and soft, a bit too much of a good thing, nothing with cheeky highs. My switch also has a positive effect on the sound. More calm, details, just a lot more musical. Depending on the fuse and cable, the LPS changes the sound again permanently. The Audioquest Hurricane source sounds good on the switch. If I exchange it for a Furutech dps-4.1, the sound stage opens up again significantly. That’s why I’m thinking about getting a high-quality cable. Then I can play with it. I can then replace the Hurricane. But it can also be that the sound then tilts and I have a Vmax experience.
Oh, I did not answer your question regarding cord on switch. I have tried more than 5 power cords in LHY SW-10 and I felt they made minor differences when I first got it.
But that was not the case when I tried later! It could be that I tried them before SW-10 was completely broken in, or some other gear was breaking in at the time. I tried some before I demo PSR, and they did make bigger difference. It turns out the best one is a “Orion2” cheap copy of silver-plated cord from AliExpress. What made the improvement was after I replaced the plugs with Furutech I48 plugs (cost more than the cord), and added a 3M tuning ring. The SQ was transformed from good to great!
I still feel the switch did not make as much difference as other gear. It could be due to the F.O. link between it and the streamer which makes the difference smaller. However, PSR was the one that made more difference this time.
By the way, one of the cords I tried was a Stealth Dream V10. Yup, this “modified” silver-plated cord sounded better. It sounded a lot better than PSR-14 as you know (But with all Dragon without PSR-11, 14 becomes the best sounding one again). 
Is stealth really that good? In the Netherlands, a dealer sells various used stealth cables. Maybe an alternative. I have also had the best experiences with the Furutech connections. I also had a cable with pure silver Iego connectors. It sounds good but hidden details. Maybe Furutech FI 48 or the good Fi 50 would have helped. A cheap Supra power cable with plug that can easily be played on a small stage. When I tried Furutech FI 48 on it, the difference was like night and day. The stage was huge, detailed and dynamic. I think plugs make a very big difference. Better a cheap cable with Furutech connectors than an expensive cable with simple connectors. Perhaps another solution is to simply swap out the connector on my Hurricane source. The July newsletter is interesting, by the way. A backup comparison. The new hi-tuning diamond is also described for the first time.
The SR Master bargain exchange purple has been extended until August 31, 2023. Should I part with my purple. 
The Stealth V10 is a beautiful sounding cord! It has excellent detail and black background. It looks like an expensive cable too. but V10 is the lowest in Dream series, and the bass is not as tight as Dragon. I need to go to V16 or higher, but the cost is crazy and my gear is not worthy for such level yet. 
Dragon HC sounded as good as V10 with a much better Bass. vmax had a V16 loaner from Al sometime ago, and he thought Dragon is as good.
Another plus was that my Stealth V10 was used and I paid $1k, and a few weeks ago I sold it for $1.1k. It was the only cable I was able to make money from. 
Oh Donald, I have to revise my statement about my Sbooster LPS for the Melco switch. When I got the Edge NQ preamp on loan last Thursday, I traded in the Purple. I had used in the LPS in place of the AM Ultimate Premier. I’ve now heard Standard Backup in Vor and Purple in LPS as many are reporting the benefits of purple digital components. Before that I had the Purple in the preamp and the AM Ultimate Premier in the LPS. I just switched back to AM Premier Ultimate in LPS. Compared to the purple, it gives more authority and sounds much more natural. In my system an Ultimate Premier in the LPS for the switch in conjunction with the Audioquest Hurricane source should be the right choice.
The Audioquest Hurricane source has tight bass, nice sweet and full mids, but they lack energy and resolution in the highs by comparison. The AM Ultimate Premier, which produces rich bass, thin mids and sometimes cheeky highs, apparently merges with the Hurricane to create a very balanced sound. Since both have their flaws in different places, they cancel each other out and complement each other perfectly. Now I am no longer dissatisfied with the AM Premier Ultimate. For an Audioquest hurricane, the fuse seems like the perfect playmate.
relief for me. I could swap the Purple for an SR Master.
I am waiting for the next Master killer fuse from AM, and I hope its price does not encroach into QSA level yet.
The sound is now good even with the standard fuse in the preamp/streamer. But more resolution, detail and cooldown couldn’t hurt. Now the question of all questions arises: Is an M1 or SR master the right choice in the preamp? Do I want to wait that long, Donald? The question is whether the two companies will release another backup in the near future. One is the masterpice and the other is called the master. Will there be M2 or a boss?
I can say that with M-1 vs master in the LPS for my switch.
The m-1 sounds more natural and gives music life like qualities.
Funny thing I liked stock fuse over purple in the switch also bu M-1 was more lively in comparison too! Even the flatulent Purple sounded better than Master.
I proved there’s no need to wait snd you can have two versus 1.
My system, with a bundle improvements on the streaming chain, the Mt. Top FW, Furu NCF plug/plate, plus Zenwave PSR-11 in pre, just sound incredible this afternoon! Seriously, I have not heard a system in any show that would make me envy now!
I am all set! No more fuses, cables, gears, and tweaks for the rest of the year. Oh, I still need to order that darn cord.
What is the baseline of AM M1? The Ultimate Premier played in front of the speakers, the Purple far behind the speakers. The SR Master is slightly behind the speakers.
M-1 Without Bacch DSP the vocalist center Image is about 18 to 24inches forward of speaker Occasionally some mixes the effects would get further out in room six or seven feet. It does height well flor to ceiling. Depth can go way into forward walll
The M-1 home theater effects satellite speaker images are about two feet out too.
Mastter fuse everything stuck inside speakers wheter 2 Channel or HT and about 80 percent of Bacch DSP. Its like the fuse inverts the phase.
This may help in finding the right fuse. So far I’ve been missing reviews of the virtual soundscape.
It may not be a bad thing if what is happening is happening in front of the speakers and the listening distance is far enough. If the listening distance is small, it can be an advantage if what is happening is shifted behind the line of the loudspeakers. Of course, everything is a matter of taste and the distance between the rear wall and the speakers will also be decisive.
…the PSR 11 also gives you the freedom to switch back and forth with the Dragon between the socket to the P15 and the preamp.
I’m ready! No more fuses, wires, gears and adjustments for the rest of the year. Oh, I have yet to order that damn cable. Donald, you’re only saying that because you promised your wife.
you are right on both above. 
You’ve changed a lot lately and I think you’re already on the finish line. Now enjoy your fruits and in the meantime you have enough time to think about what else there could be.
Tme for Bacch dSP. I set my wife in front of it at 11. She was still listening at 1 AM. Me I was in bed. A change of roles.
Well, you never know. I am afraid my Master fuse will act up crazy like yours when Bacch shows up. That thing is kind of complicated to say the least (compare to my other upgrades).
The Master Fuse has nothing to fo with BACCH. It acted the same with my Home Theater and with all system DSP turned off. Its not for my system is all.
