I ended up returning it. The older Python and Typan Helix Alpha cables that i had for years were more balanced but still not warm. Another alternative is Audience AU24SE HP. But I would go with the Hurricane. Awesome bass and never bright.

I don’t think so. It’s a high current power cord and is suitable for use on amplifiers. Which is where it was tested in my system. It managed to turn my Pass Labs XA30.8 into a bright and fatiguing amp which is nearly an impossible task n

I thought it was the XC version but I double checked my email and my music direct order was for the alpha v2 nr in 1.75m. Sorry for the confusion. But it is the NR that turned my XA30.8 into a fatiguing beast.
