First foray into Shunyata PC's in 2025

I'm running a modest system (which will continue to be modest for a while with 16 mo twins and my 3rd child having arrived on Thursday last week), composed of a Naim Supernait 3 + HiCap DR & NDX 2 + XPS-DR driving some as-yet-unreleased high efficiency speakers.

I started in early February with a Venom HC v2. Made a silly-good improvement on the Supernait. Then grabbed a Venom NR V12 for a song and put it on my XPS-DR (which powers the NDX 2). Again, as-advertised improvements.

So I recently acquired a Delta NR v1 for the HiCap DR that powers the class-A preamp section of the Supernait and...again... good Lord. The way it makes everything better...but you lose absolutely nothing in terms of dynamics. I'm a stone-cold believer in Shunyata PC's now.

I really appreciate the knowledge shared here in this subforum. I've read several dozen threads to completion. Thank you!

Thank you! I know I'm just scratching the surface with what I have in my system, but I'm disproportionately excited, nonetheless.
 
Congratulations on the twins and the new arrival. Funny, isn't it, how "just scratching the surface" yields such a performance jump. Glad you're enjoying the ride.

Thank you!!

Oh it is funny indeed. I realize that I'm still likely in the bottom half or quartile in terms of the absolute performance that an Alpha or Sigma or Omega PC can deliver.

Still, I'm just happy as a clam and am listening to more music as a direct result. Which I think we all agree is what really matters.
