The original first Hydra with Elrod statement


The original first Shunyata Hydra with Elrod statement.
I just wonder if the Elrod statement is the best choice for the first original Shunyata Hydra with the Nema twist lock.
Please guys give me your thoughts

The Elrod Statement is a great power cord, and the original Hydra is a great power conditioner. Is the Elrod Statement the best choice? Only you can answer that question. 'The Best' is very subjective.
Do you own this combination, or are you looking at buying it?

I use the original Hydra with an Elrod EPS 2 Sig (to which David Elrod attached a NEMA connector) and it works very well. I would think a Statement would work even better. I run the EPS 2 Sig to a PS Audio UO, and then a Statement from the UO into the wall and I have been happy with this setup for 3 years, a new record for longevity in audiophilia romance! The Statement is a SOTA cord.

My concern with this combination would be the (literal)weight, and stiffness of the Statement; i.e., with the NEMA twist lock a power cord can untwist and break contact. If you go this route, my suggestion would be changing the NEMA out for an IEC.
