Has anybody compared Lessloss and Shunyata pcs

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.

I prefer the LessLoss to the Helix series but haven't heard the CX series.

I have 2 LessLoss Sigs and they are outstanding. After going through all the big names, I have found only 2 PC's that equal or better the LL: Nordost Valhalla and Elrod Statement (older version). The latter, however, is so thick and heavy as to be almost completely unusable, exceptin a straight line to a component. The Valhalla is my favorite, as it is more neutral and natural than the IC's or spkr cable, IMO, and very flexible and easy to maneuver. But the LessLoss Sigs are very close and have their own charms.
