Elrod statement vs Shunyata anaconda zitrons

For 15 years now, after trying all sorts of cords from new and established companies, somehow I always like my Shunyatas the best, as they just let me breathe easy. Actually, I recommend highly the early generation Anacondas (the first Anaconda, the Alpha, and the VX for digital). I have these things everywhere, even my headphone system.

The limitation of Shunyata is that they make instruments and voices bigger than they should be. When you are aware of how big instruments and voices need to be, you don't even want Shunyatas for free in your set.

This sounds hard, I understand. But creating a more intimate stage the level in realism and endresult is getting higher.

By comparing a stage with instuments and voices which are intimate against a stage with instruments and voices too big people prefer a more intimate stage.

This is a very important part for the absolute sound. This is something I want people to understand why it is important.

And that is why; hearing is believing!!

Bo1972,

I note you have made this observation before about Shunyata cables. There are many who do not agree with you on this.

I have owned some Shunyata power cables in the past but I don't presently own
any. The bottom line is each of use are individuals with our own personal
preference in music and what we like to hear, that we consider good listening.
Doesn't matter what power cables you own or how much they cost as long as
you enjoy the music. Sorry for being off the forum question.

Audio is about comparing. In 16 years of time I have done thousend of tests. Because I love it so much.

One of my best friends had a concert room with a Steinway wing. Here I learned how small instruments and voices are. The intimate stage and feeling is different compared to when instruments and voices are bigger in proportion.

I don't say that people are not allowed to prefer a stage with bigger instruments and voices.

But I have proven that most people prefer a more intimate and realistic stage.

These days an intimate stage in a wide and deep stage has become my biggest succes in audio.

I never had such a big advantage to compete against other shops. At the end the best sound wins in audio.

Hearing is believing.
