I bought a Powerline in Feb but have had the house full of visitors, DIY and bits of work such that I’ve never had a chance to use if with my SN3 in a stable listening environment.
Tomorrows the day!
Will I be chuffed, over / underwhelmed or indifferent?
Bought blind as it was a great price at the time!

Preloved Power-Lines are always sought after so if you don’t find it beneficial then it’s a very easy item to move on with little or no financial loss.

It will be better but not that much.

I have PL’s on my SN3 & NDX2 and have done back to back tests with the normal PL Lites and cant say I hear much of a difference, if any it’s subtle.

Well, it’s nice. Subtle, but nice. Some notes last a bit longer, and a tad richer (maybe). It frees up my PL lite for other duties too.

Sounds like my experience. I was surprised that my PowerLine sounded best on my HiCapDr, go figure!
Power-Lines work nicely with non Naim kit too. A very decent cable and not a silly price either, especially if buying pre-loved. As some of these have been around for a quite a few years, it’s worth checking the terminal connections are tight in the mains plug and replacing the fuse with a genuine Bussmann 13A one.
Tidy job I’d put ferrules on the strands to stop this happening.
You got the fuse the right way round too.
Hope you polished the pins.
Left them as they were from the factory, but I understand what you mean.
Phew
I’ve not done that since my LP12 days. Where’s my Duraglit…

Very neatly done. I do have some Duraglit in the garage, so I may give my pins a polish, just for old times sake

Ahh… Duraglit… I used that stuff to polish up my Norton 650 SS in the 70’s…

You can always resort to one of the cable burn in topics.
