Shunyata Ethernet Cable User Experience- Delta vs Theta


Yes, I know it depends on my individual system, cables don't matter, etc....

I would really appreciate hearing from a few Audiogon members that have experience with either/both of these cables.  I plan on purchasing one of these to replace my DH Labs Reunion ethernet cable, which is solid but I am willing to go up a step and try a new cable out.  I know the Delta has been replaced in the Shunyata lineup and was a higher level cable - I can pick up a lightly used one for the mid $500's.  A new Theta would be right at $500.   Any thoughts appreciated!  Thanks....

Hi @norust  No direct experience with the Delta or Theta, but I recently posted my thoughts on the Alpha (one step up in the line) in another recent thread "Ethernet Cables". A bit of speculation here, but I would guess that these cables would fit well into a digital front end that was leaning towards the bright side of neutral. I found the Sablon Ethernet 2020 to be a better fit in my system - more dynamic and well defined leading edges. My system was quite different when I tried the DH Labs Reunion so it is hard for me to say too much about that one.

@sfpeloton - certainly appreciate your thoughts.  I will go and check out the recent thread you referenced.  

My system leans towards the warm side bssed on my Modwright LS99 preamp with tubes.
