STS Digital Sixpack

Marja Vanderloo and Henk Boot have posted a review of the STS Digital Sixpack power strip (€1000) at 6moons. Their conclusions:

Our Tri TRV EQ3SE phono stage suffered a bit of dulling when the Nanotec and Harmonic Technology cords disappeared inside the Sixpack tunnels. Here the ‘naked’ approach was better. Our PS Audio PerfectWave converter meanwhile got more lively and forward when its power cord was additionally shielded.

We thus conclude that the STS Sixpack can be beneficial. As with many accessories or tweaks the difference is small and very much contingent on context. Cheaper less elaborately shielded power cords would seem to be the most likely beneficiaries. This could make it attractive to deliberately settle for a set of more affordable cords and ‘finish them off’ with a Sixpack. It also upgrades up to six existing power cords.
