    Shunyata Theta/Gamma Lines - Do they surpass the Delta/Venom of the previous generation?

    I just saw these on Shunyata's site. Has anyone heard these - or about them? Their pricing is close to the older lines (Alpha, Alpha Helix and ZiTron), which all started at $995, as does the Theta power cord (at least going by some retailers' stated price). Will these replace (as in: be more...

    Shims for Center Stage 2M...

    Where are the shims placed for the Center Stage 2M? On top of the 2ms or underneath, on the platform under the footers? My footers look slightly lopsided, but I assume if the footers need to be directly against the component, then the shims are for the platform everything is sitting on. No...

    Venom PS10 - A distributor or also a line conditioner?

    The Venom PS10. Does it have any "line conditioning properties" within it? Or does one need to consider the Venom V16 instead for that? I intend to hear both and then, perhaps the Hydra Delta 6.

    Does laser deterioration affect sound quality?

    This may be the wrong forum, so, if the moderator wishes to move it to a more appropriate forum, fine. Does a laser "going bad" affect the actual sound quality? Read on. My longterm affair CD player, an Arcam FMJ 23, has started having problems reading discs. Due to COVID, I wasn't as focused...

    Has anyone compared the two? Impressions? What does one do better? (Yes, know about the Mundorf capacitors and Nordost cable. Is the Nordost Series 1 (thin) or Series 2 (fuller in the power range?). Lets get to the sonics. Comparisons? Anyone had experience with both?

    Do Sigma NR Power Cables still need to burn in?

    I’ve seen that on the interconnect and speaker cables, burn in is a thing of the past. However I didn’t see that subject addressed for the power cords, specifically the NR generation of power cords. Is break-in time still the same? Several hundred hours? I don’t see any of the modules On the...

    Brand of Tubes for Classic Sixty and SE - For Owners or cognoscenti of Classic Sixty

    Does anyone know the brand of tubes CJ is using in its Classic 60 and SE? I believe the SEs are TungSol, but what are the 6922s and EL34s for the Sixty? I'm evaluating a Classic 60, but I see o brand name on the EL 34s in this amp (consignment piece). The amp sounds a little soft, and...

    Alpha Series in comparison to Zitron Python or Anaconda

    As the Alpha Series power cords are newer - yet less expensive - than the Zitron Python or Anaconda, which one affords a higher sonic fidelity to real(ity) life? I'd read that the Zi-Trons were either 1) not shielded or 2) inadequately shielded. I'd never seen if that was conjecture or fact...

    MG Audio Planus CU2

    I stumbled onto this forum quite by accident (I can hardly remember where I saw the link), but I'm glad I did. I saw Priaptor's recommendation of the MG Design Planus interconnects and with a 30-day guarantee and that pricing, how could a body go wrong??? Mine will be arriving shortly and...
