Elrod statement vs Shunyata anaconda zitrons

Guidocorona,

Would you agree with Bo1972's comments about imaging?

Hi Sabai, I can only report what I have experienced with Shunyata ZTron Anacondas in my own system. At that time, the system consisted of Esoteric X-01, Rowland Criterion line stage, Rowland M725 monos (330W/8 per channel), and Vienna Die Muzik speakers. Shunyata ZTron Anaconda PCs, ICs, and speaker wires appeared to pass along as much signal or current as they receive upstream, without obvious bandpass filtration or overall attenuation/emphasis. As a result, my electronic components and speakers delivered in most cases instrumental and vocalist images of realistic sizes without obvious angular recession or magnification.

From my listening position, 10 to 12 feet in front of the speakers, it seemed that the angular span of the image generated by the speakers was congruent with listening to music sitting in a 4th row position. For example, a grand 9-footer concert piano “looked” like a nine-footer located 5 to 6 feet beyond the speaker grill. However, if the mike had been particularly close to the performer, like with many recordings of female vocalists, or of Lara St. John playing Bach violin solos, the angular image was congruent with the projection of an instrument or singer’s head a couple of feet away, hence larger than what is induced by most socially acceptable live experiences... Shunyata remains blameless for implied breach of virtual etiquette... The recording engineer is responsible for calibrating distance between mikes and performer.

Bottomline… I did thoroughly enjoy Shunyata Ztron Anaconda, and deem its induced sonic geometries to be unimpeachable in my system.

Purist Audio powercables also can give you stunning blacks. The level in physical image of voices and instruments becomes more apparent and round. The other thing what it of a higher level with Purist Audio is the articulation of voices. Word endings on a ssss, ttt or th etc. Breathing of singers en even moving lips of singers are more obvious.

When the blacklevel is higher you get a more intimate sound as well. The same thing about the resolution and detail you can hear. The Purist powercables like the limited edition reveals more details as well.

I have heard often Shunyata cables during shows and in shops as well. I never got thrilled by the overall sound. I am a lot further in the endresult. I can create a superior physical 3 dimensional image. Same thing about details and layers of the lowest freq I can go a lot further.

You Always hear to all the parts togheter, but you get an idea what it can bring and how good it is.

Guidocorona and Bo1972,

Thank you very much for your detailed observations.

Comparing will make clear what you prefer. It is that easy.

Just enjoy it.
