Shunyata Anaconda Alpha or Elrod Statement?

Yes the ends may be changed. As for concerns about fluid, the newest Purist Audio cables are filled with Contego, not fluid.

Anyway, the fluid or Contego stops a few inches from the termination point with a flexible section. The seal is not broken when the plugs are swapped in either design.

I imagine almost any cable from any audiophile builder could be special ordered with plugs of your choice. Common example is approved male terminations for Japan or Europe.

I have changed male plugs on several brands of cables, including Purist, from 120V to 240V and back again. If your interested in a specific brand (as opposed to voltage-design), again, it is likely any builder would accommodate you for cost of material when assembling your order.

Thanks everyone for there support. I read a lot af articles about the cabels. And I decided to go for Purist Audio. I know there are new cable already and some are comming. What is the best to but know for a price of about 1000 us dollar? I need 1 metre length.

Muratc,
I also love the Elrod Statements sound, but was frustrated with their unwieldy nature and bulk ( I currently also have a small room.) So recently I went on a quest to find a pc at least equal the sonics of the Statement, without the Statement ergonomics. I tried several cords including the Epiphany X ( an nice cord but I felt lacking weight IMS.) and Kubala-Sosna Emotion (excellent cord for the money and very close to the Elrod.) Thus far, the only pc I have tried, and now have purchased which exceeded the Elrod in my system and by a far amount to my great surprise is the Jena Model One pc. It is very pricey, supple in design and has a buit in power conditioner. I thought that this built conditioner would be gimmicky and limit dynamics, but nothing is further from the truth. This pc gave me another degree of improved dynamics (macro and micro) and low-level detail, while retaining the natural resolution that I still love about the Elrod. I am waiting to try the Prana Maha-Samdhi pc, but this is even more expensive. One of the things I have learned is that there is always better equipment , wire, and etc, but the music is what I enjoy the most.

in my above comments i didn't want to go OT and bring up another power cord......but since i didn't start it i'll second Rgwrjs's comments. i now am using 7 Jena Labs Fundamental One power cords in place of my Elrods. I found that the Jena's were slightly different than the Elrod Statements (more vivid with blacker backgrounds and a bit more microdynamics......the Elrod sounding slighly more meaty and a bit more macro-dynamic). in some systems the Statements do sound a bit boomey although in my system with Valhalla and Opus i've not ever heard that. the Jena's are much easier to live with logistically. another advantage is with a separate conditioner/filter on every cord you eliminate digital back-fill from any digital gear into the system. i have a transport, dac, and also a 1000 watt digital amp in each speaker for the integral subs.......so keeping the digital hash out of the power grid seems to be significant in lowering the noise floor.

I have what I consider to be some serious Hi-Fi gear Sonus Faber Stradivari speakers, Halcro Dm58 mono blocks & Dm10 pre-amp and Reimyo CDP-777 CD player and would like offer my comments. I have tried a lot of cables and interconnects including Shunyata, which were more detailed and open than Harmonix's top end items but so far the best by far are the new highly flexible Analysis Plus Golden Oval speaker cables and interconnects, they are awasome and allow a seamless full range including deep clean bottom end and these get my approval rating and are well worth the money. However I have just heard about Sonus Fabers new cables so I am going to give them a try to see how they perform too. Remember your power cords are just as critcal a choice.
