| Shunyata Zitron Cobra vs Transparent Reference G5 If you have not yet purchased that Transparent, might I suggest doing the 60-day trial at Music Direct and getting a Shunyata Delta NR? If you don’t like it, just return it before the 60 days is up. No re-stocking fee.I say this because the Delta ... | |
| Shunyata Zitron Cobra vs Transparent Reference G5 I would NOT advise the CX line: there is a built-in warmth which colors the entire frequency presentation. You would do FAR better with a Python ZiTron (I have both the Cobra ZiTron and the Python Citron): the Python is (naturally) better, sonical... | |
| Townshend Maximum Super Tweeters Ribbons, Amazing Results Definite Keepers I did not find them a good match for the Nola Contenders, which surprised me. | |
| Shunyata Sigma Analog vs Alpha Analog - Need advice!! Mikey, I believe I said the old Furutech RHODIUM version was more bleached out, not the Gold. As for outlets? Ps Audio Power Ports, and PS Audio PPP; Synergistic Tesla Plex, and then The Synergistic Tesla Plex SE version; Oyaide R1, and some other... | |
| Power Cords Yes, and one has to be careful with that many tube traps. Place one - or more - incorrectly (the seam pointing too far in one direction or the other) and suddenly the music is a bit "lean-sounding." That's why HP, when he did his Their CS5 review,... | |
| Shunyata Sigma Analog vs Alpha Analog - Need advice!! I have both. I like the Alpha analog, although it seems to have a slight dip in the upper bass/lower midrange. The Sigma does not have that dip. As to whether or not it’s worth it, what is the rest of your system? I think it’s great to have good c... | |
| Power Cords I’ve read thru this thread and am somewhat astonished the most at the claim about Shunyata, specifically it has a "2-D" sound. WHAT?!?!?!?One listen with ASL Hurricanes, which are the most "real"-sounding amplifiers I’ve EVER had and that notion g... | |
| Shunyata Alpha/Delta NR Line. Richard:Thanks for the helpful information. | |
| Shunyata Alpha/Delta NR Line. Ricred:Were the cables new when you got them or had they already been used before? | |
| Shunyata Alpha/Delta NR Line. P.S. Also have the Delta NR. Like it very, very much. And it's much less expensive than the Cobra Citron, which, when it came out was $995 in contrast to the Delta ($700). However!! You might - if you get the Delta NR - order a longer length, sin... | |
| Shunyata Alpha/Delta NR Line. Yes. And I’m sure I’m not the only one.The more recent generations (the newest and the Alpha) have greater noise reduction capabilities. At the same time, they reveal - to a greater degree than they used to - what your other components are doing. ... | |
| 2018 exactly what is ‘High End’ audio? High End, at one time, meant the components that came closest to mimicking the sound of live, UNAMPLIFIED, acoustic music heard in a defined space.The problem is, too many people on forums do not go to live, unamplified music events, so there’s no... | |
| Best used or new DAC under $3500 Without actually HEARING each of the three in a high-resolution system in a room whose acoustics we ourselves are familiar with, we are merely guessing which one is "better." I owned a Benchmark many years ago, but certainly not within the past 10... | |
| How good are Shunyata power cords?? I’ve had every generation of Shunyata power cords, as well as several of Nordost, several of MIT and ESP. I have several "systems" (meaning preamps, amps, speaker cables, speakers). I have 2 digital front ends, and 2 analogue front ends. The Shuny... | |
| Why does all new pop music sound the same? And there you go Kennovak-head.It seems not to have occurred to YOU that we, the "OLD" ones (yes, I’m closing in on 70) have heard 5 or 6 decades more music than you. So we heard Ella Fitzgerald, Ben Johnson, Muddy Waters, The Platters, Chubby Che... |
