Shunyata comparison

maybe it’s been covered but has anyone compared the Alpha HC to the Alpha NR? it seems like the NR is not garnering great enthusiasm but i may be wrong. would like to know of sonic differences between the two. thanks

I use the Sigma NR on my digital source and Alpha HC/Alpha NR on my Amp. I find this to be best configuration for my system and listening tastes. I am beginning to think that having ONE Sigma NR placed strategically is all you need, otherwise it could be too much of a good thing. I also find the Sigma to have a closer to the Front row sound and a incredibly expansive soundstage compared to the Alpha’s. Great cable and would like to hear a second Sigma to conclude my theory. ;)

I also have a King Cobra V1 "i" which is very warm, laidback and a perfect antidote for poor recordings.

I also find that Shunyata cables need a good 12 hours to settle after being moved around, otherwise they can sound bright and unbalanced (L or R channel)
