Shunyata Delta or Alpha V2 NR vs. AQ Hurricane HC

I did extensive back and forth between Delta and Alpha into my power conditioner and my DAC. Both vast improvement over my stock cords, but for SQ the Delta was the winner for my system. The Alpha was almost too much of a good thing and the music was a little to clear and lost some musicality. 

@w123ale NR or XC?

@audphile1 both. XC into the power conditioner and the NR into the DAC

@w123ale thanks! How long did you allow for break in? I know Shunyata states their KPIP process eliminates or shortens break in, but I’am not so sure about that claim. 

w123ale - Don't mean to nit pick - was the NR version V2?
