Shunyata ztron power vs cx cables...

Vhiner,

I have their Organic line and everything I've tried so far don't come close. The midrange is magical and the tone of the cable is so beautiful and life-like, never heard nothing like it. Images are bigger and sharply defined within the soundstage with excellent top to bottom coherence.

I will have over 500 hrs by week end but don't think tone will change but may extract more detail

I'm planning on giving the Cobras IC and speaker cables a try in a month.

Guy1,

What are your initial impressions of the cable? From reading and listening to their videos, you should hear more detail and bass with a much faster transients. Are you finding the soundstage to be more focused?

Thanks

Guy1,

Thanks for the info! I should have my Cobra demo pair of IC and spkr cables next week and hoping that this groind breaking technology will be obvious initially and get better with more hours. I'm assuming that the current delivery and rise and fall times should be noticed upon install but i'm eager to see how they stack up with what I already have.

Oddeophile,

Thanks for the detailed post of your impressions! I may have to find an alternate mean of breaking in my Cobra IC because I have a tube integrated amp and tube CD player but possibly could put in some cheap 6SN7 in my player and run that 24/7 with my tube amp off when not listening

Guys,

Glad the Zitrons are working out for you. I'm really not finding any improvements in my system other than a tad more transparency but that may be related to the cables
sounding quite thin in my system and weak bass.

I have over 350 hours on the IC and feel pin-point imaging and soundstaging is compromised by capturing more ambiance or hall effects. They are nice cables but don't sound real in my system. The 270ish hour mark showed the biggest improvement with a more fuller sound but no where near the refinement of Clarity Cables, which places the performers in your living space.

Guys,

I'm not sure if the gauge in my Cobra Zitron PC is
sufficient because my JPS AC+ produces a wider and
deeper soundstage on my Vac tube amp.

I know it must be a synergy issue in my system since my Audience "e" cord connected to my MW Sony 5400 sounds more natural, produces a quieter and deeper soundstage than my Cobra's. Who would have thought based on this new technology.

Mine have over 1200 hours of use.
