Biggest difference between Audioquest power cables against Shunyata power cables?

Hi everyone I upgraded/ bought another couple of power cables for my system. A Audioquest nrg1000 for my tube preamp and A Zitron alpha analog for my tube power amp. Though the imaging is better with the two power cables switched. I also did notice that it seams that shunyata gives a bit more juice in the power amp. And the cord end dose not heat up at the cord end to the tube power amp? Has anyone experienced or has a nrg-1000 in a 120watt tube power amplifier?

Jakecanada hi,

did you come to some conclusion?
Did you try Shunyata Sigma HC, or Alpha HC over AQ NRG1000?

I am interested, as I am fan of Shunyata and Audioquest alike.
Technically speaking, Audioquest draw me in by materials used (silver plated terminations, and high purity copper wires + DBS and various shielding and dielectric combinations), and Shunyata draw me in by Cealing Gabriel common sense and scientific approach in making future (in spite of using strange metals, which have lower conductivity then gold, a lot of users report superiority over other products).

Currently I use AQ NRG1000 and AQ NRG10, as well as older Shunyata Taipan and Copperhead PC.

I have AQ Wel PC (newest version), I will check to see if the terminals are hot to the touch.

I just did a dealer demo today with nrg1000 for the cd player and preamp and a shunyata alpha anolog for the Cary power amp. I had the best made match in heaven never going back and the amp never loss of power at all.
