Original Shunyata Hydra Owners


Anyone who has or had an original Shunyata line conditioner.Did you upgrade from the included power cord(which was a Sidewinder I believe) to any other Shunyata cord with the Nema connector plug.If so,what were the sonic differences/improvements?

I am a dealer and have tried several along with other brands. Your dealer should be helpful and also let you try different ones. That's his job.

There is only a handful of power cords that are a real upgrade while most are just different.

Even in the Shunyata line there are differences between models. The only Shunyata I didn't like in it was the second from the bottom cable where as all the others worked well but had differing degrees of improvement.
The Running Springs may roll of highs which can help a lot of equipment but the Hydra does not and what Kina is missing from the Monster is the grain that he thinks is highs.

My amp and pre-amp have a 10 Mhz. bandwidth at full output and the Shunyata didn't roll off those highs.
