Shunyata X series power cords

@gbmcleod interesting. I use Tyr2 XLRs between dac and integrated. I like the sound a lot. But I haven’t heard Shunyata interconnects. 
The Alpha X USB cable that I recently tried took over 200hrs to settle. Keep cooking the new ICs. Looking forward to your thoughts as I can definitely agree with some if your observations about Tyr2. There is no such thing as a perfect cable though….there are always trade offs…

@audphile1 Thanks for that information. I expected there would still be a reasonably extended burn-in time. From what you wrote, it sounds like burn-in will still take a while. Just not 400 hours any more. Cool. Good to know!

@sdl4 Thank you for the review.   Very helpful.  How did you find the Delta v2 compared to the other cables? 

@rssb The Delta v2 is kind of my basic default power cable. I have several of them, and they are solid performers in my system. They are a significant step up from the earlier v1 version.

Compared to the new Theta cables, the Delta v2 seem somehow "slower" and less "live" - if that makes sense. Theta also seems to pick up more details of the room in which the recording is being made. 

Compared to the new Alpha-X, the Delta v2 seems less delicate and refined. The Alpha-X also produces tighter and more impactful bass, although the Delta is decent on the low end. The Alpha-X exhibits more natural tone and soundstage depth throughout the frequency range. 

Thank you for this @sdl4   I have a Delta v2 and have been considering getting a Theta or Alpha x so this is very useful.  Have you noticed any areas where you prefer Delta v2 over Theta, or are all differences you noted positive in your system?
