Anyone tried on an I2S HDMI cable?  Looking to try it in near future. Sounds like the cats meow of tweaks. 😊

Glad to see this beloved amp is still out there and kicking so well for many folks. Ive had mine since 1998 and loved every second of ownership. Until about three weeks ago it still ran like a champ. Tri-tube mod etc from the outset. For the last ...

Hi Frankthx for giving it a shot and being so great!  It's you that's the reason we're trying this stuff to begin with (starting this great discussion). Ive used many disc mats over the years especially versions from Marigo. My current drive -PS A...

Shunyata ztron power vs cx cables...
+1. I agree with vhiner. Shunyata is superb at the illusion closer to the live original event than any cable I have ever used. 
Shunyata ztron power vs cx cables...
I would agree with the assessments everything is system dependent, for certain. In my system that uses 5 King Cobra CX and 5 Anaconda CX PC's along with the Anaconda ZTron signal/speaker cables and Python Ztron XLR digital cable the system synergy... 
Shunyata ztron power vs cx cables...
Wig,Yeah, that is the tough part of dealing with these cables with tubes. Of course, you could procure a Cable Cooker but that is not very inexpensive, either. I lust after the Audio Research Reference 5 SE, but alas, will not enter my system unti... 
Shunyata ztron power vs cx cables...
Audioquest4life,I have not heard the ZTron AC cables, but from what I have read here and there the ZTron adds a very fast transient "jump factor" to the sound and at least one person felt they exceeded the CX series. For me, it does not matter. I ...
