Anyone compared new Shunyata cords with old?

i just replaced a pair of taipans with taipan alphas on my preamp and poweramp. the bleached midrange is gone, the colors are back. in particular the cymbals have real-to-life shimmer. something i have never heard in my system before.

is it a worthy upgrade? you are the only one who can judge that. definately worth a listen though.

I just replaced my Top Gun HFC-i on my Levinson 335 with an Anaconda AX and a PS Audio Lab Cable II on my 390S with an Anaconda VX. What a huge difference! Articulation was greatly improved and the general presentation seemed as if a veil has been removed allowing one to hear "into" the music.
