Is Stealth Sakra IC is really better than Indra?


I've used several ICs over the years including Nordost Valhalla, Tara Labs Zero and Siltech G6. I found the Indra to the best cable I've experienced (including the other Stealth cables), and still live happily with them for the past two years now (they are clearly among the best investments I've made in audio). Stealth came out with a new reference IC, the Sakra. I'm carious to hear from other users how better it is compared to the Indra. Unfortunately, I don't have the option to test it in my system. The rest of the system includes TAD reference 1 and MSB Platinum DAC IV signature.

Bullot right on!

Yes Sakra needs good break-in and this period is painful as you said but since it is fully loaded with Helium I'd never risk to buy it used. I prefer to have a good deal from the Stealth dealer.
You never know what torments the previous owner passed it on.

IMHO the Sakra's break-in point is above 500hrs...

As for used Indras I totally agree, in such prices are high value for money!!!!
