"How did the Brahma help your system and what did it replace, component used on etc"
I was only using stock power cords for the dac/speakers so it was an easy upgrade. I was little skeptical at first until I heard the results. Added much needed bottom end, and overall tighter presentation. I like hearing the defined bass when volume is low.
Xti16- are you happy with the tyr 2? right now I'm using cardas golden reference for the last 5 years so i think it might be time for an upgrade.
