Gamma NR is newer, while Venom V10 is out of production, but I see it everywhere used for a good discount. I was wondering if anyone compared the two in action or have insight into the difference between the two. I am considering one of these for a compact integrated amplifier PS Audio Sprout100 and/or integrated headphone amplifier Marantz HD-DAC1.
The Gamma is treated with KPIP v2 and also features Gen 2 noise reduction where as the V10 has the prior version of both. The Venom V10 was a heck of value though so you would get heck of a bang for the buck with it. Smart to seek opinions from those who have tried both but I’m inclined to just wing it and suggest that you go for the V10 as it should not depreciate that much more in price so should you decide to flip it at some point you will get most of your money back.
Thanks for the feedback. I picked up Venom V10 NR from Used Cable for $350. It was too good a deal to pass up...I might still get Gamma later or borrow it from the Cable Company lending library to compare.
But I am confused about different generations of noise reduction and KPIP? Because I have several Venom V14 NR cables., and they are still in production...how do I know which generation noise reduction and KPIP are they?

Using 25 years worth of Shunyata Research's documented science, experience and innovation, Gamma Series cables are designed to upend price and performance axioms in the cable industry. Perhaps more than any other product in Shunyata Research's history, Gamma Series cables demand to be heard...
The V14 NR is a slightly different beast in that the “multi-stage noise-filtration circuit … was designed specifically for computer-based music systems.” It was originally called the V14 Digital and came over from their medical division. It’s more specialized so it made sense to keep it in their lineup.
