Well, after playing all day, it’s breaking in and the true character is starting to emerge. To answer your question, I can tell how the stock cable sounded because it was almost identical to sound of the coax cable which I still have installed. There are two main differences. The Shunyata sounds fuller and also more detailed. At this point, the differences aren’t huge, because the stock cable sounded really good. But, differences there are. The new one is more focused and clear.
We’ll see what develops, but I think the Shuniata is a keeper. I’m liking it more and more as I continue to listen.
