Has anybody compared Lessloss and Shunyata pcs


I,m running Arcam av-8 pre pro and bryston 7b-sstx3 and
a balanced 240 Torus 15a Isolation component.Just wondering if anybody has compared say shunyata python helixes(which I'm using now) to the Lessloss pcs.

I have both. My preference is for the Shunyatas CX series cords after having tried the Lessloss "Original" model. The lower midrange thru mid bass seems lacking something in bass power and focus of the instruments. Although the Lessloss is MUCH clearer than the Shunyata Taipan Helix, I found image focus significantly less precise than Shunyata cords, which set a very high standard.
A very decent cord (the Lessloss), nonetheless.
Recently i had the chance to compare my Lessloss Signature power cable to the 3 times pricier King Cobra CX on the preamplifier of a friend's system. The Shunyata's flagship model was overall more balanced and with more pronounced bottom end and energy whereas the Lessloss on the other hand had more accentuated highs.However i found the Lessloss to be a bit more transparent and with larger soundstage. The Lessloss is also more flexible and convenient. I'd say the ideal, soundwise, would be somewhere in the middle at the Lessloss price.
I also have always thought that Shunyata cords have a nice mellow sound in the highs; that is what I like about them especially with headphones, which can be tipped up, or speakers that do the same. I have not heard the CX series,
but I have several of the older generation ones (Anacondas mostly).

The bass is more transparent with some other cords,
even cheaper ones, but I think Shunyata has always nailed the highs just right for me. The mids and upper mids are also nicely rounded and not pushy or subject to glare, a real plus for digital sources.

And the bass is fine if I pair them with ICs that have a nice solid controlled bass.
LessLoss hands down. Best cord I've ever owned and others may do somethings well but not overall like LessLoss.

Now having said that the Harmonic Technology Magic II on front end gear is really special, but then its design is like having a power conditioner without the drawbacks and it cost more, so to beat the LessLoss you have to spend a lot more and have a total different design that is really not "just" a power cord. Buy my oh my is it good.
