PC for LUMIN X1 ! .... Shunyata? Nordost? Synergistic Research? AQ?


I was ready to purchase a Shunyata Alpha V2 PC from my new streamer/dac but after reading a few things I held off.

Now im utterly confused. Way too many options and not enough info comparing. My upper limit for this source component is $2k, but I don't mind buying a used cable either

ultimately this will be going into a gryphon diablo 300 into kef blades 2 if listing the chain helps

If you like particular brands characteristics, why not trying certain combinations with other sections in your system? The results can be very impressive. All my sources are powered by Nordost Valhallas in my systems (D1, DAC and X1) because of the life they provide to the music.. However, my amplifiers are powered by Sigma HC and Sigma V2 for their better bass control and accuracy at the top end - No more fatigue. In short, two very different brand can complements each other.
I’m all Shunyata on my main system. I use a variety on my secondary’s; nordost, PS audio, and my favorite Analysis Plus. You may want to check them out.
