Hmmm, well I have a Sakra, as well as the Indra. The Sakra I have had for a couple of months now, about 400 hours break-in time on it! I have had a number of listening sessions with it, the last one at about 250 hours. I plan to have another listening this week, at the 400 hour mark.
Off the hop I would have to agree with Kops, yes it is! Right out of the box it's better. In my experience it has gone through some growing pains in the break-in, and has also had some, shake your head in amazement, incredible moments in those first 250 hours. I am very much looking forward to seeing where it lands, where is settles out so to speak!! At that time I will spend some time swapping it out with the Indra, to do a direct comparision.
At this point I have to say that no matter how the Sakra turns out, and I think it's going to be strongly better than the Indra, I believe the Indra is an excellent excellent value at the used prices on here! I actually prefer buying used cable, this breaking in cable is painful. If you're on the bang for the buck program......you should be very happy with the Indra, I may just end up there myself! I am still open to the possibility the Sakra has potential to blow me away.....but yikes, it's not cheap!
I'll report more with more hours on the cable!
