    Which alpha PC to buy for Aurender N100H?

    Caelin, thanks once again. This is a link to the page with earlier discussion about which cable to choose for the Ayre DAC. http://www.audioaficionado.org/shunyata-research/25991-shunyata-typhon-cables-incoming.html. Based upon your recommendations, I would now think that the Ayre DAC and...

    Which alpha PC to buy for Aurender N100H?

    Thank you Caelin. However, I am a little confused by your answer. I had always thought that the HC cables should power high current devices. For music: mainly amplifiers. The Aurender is a digital music player with a 35W linear power supply. I know little about electricity, but I had thought...

    Which alpha PC to buy for Aurender N100H?

    My previous post was "Which Sigmas to buy for my Audio Research gear" and received great advice from the forum. In the end I went with 2x Sigma Analog to power my ARC REF DAC and Reference 75. One word: superb. I now bought an Aurender N100H and am in doubt which PC of the Shunyata Alpha...

    Which sigmas to buy for my Audio Research gear?

    Thank you Edorr and Grant. @Grant: I totally follow as to the amp. Could you explain the reason why the pre-amp/dac would be a better fit with the sigma digital? Would you know of customer experiences that went that route vs the analog? Thnks again.

    Which sigmas to buy for my Audio Research gear?

    Dear Calin, May I first of all compliment you with the way Shunyata as a whole and you especially are approachable and open to your customers. I do think this is quite special when compared to other brands out there. And thank you for your answer. I have two questions left. (1) do you know of...

    That's a good idea, I will have a go at the gallery tomorrow (it is past midnight here in the netherlands ;) The Alpha HC is definitely right there with the other candidates (anaconda/python) which I hope to audition and compare soon.

    I would appreciate some guidance with the following. I have an Audio Research Reference DAC playing to a Reference 75 amp, paired with Avalon Ascendants. I am planning to upgrade the power cables. What I am trying to compare is the alpha series with higher end pythons or anacondas. (1)...
