Which Cord OVER Python For Original Hydra ?

No Hydra owners ? Looks like i'm alone here !

I used the Andaconna VX with the twist lock on the original Hydra.
It was very good but not everything sounded as good. My tube analog preamp sounded better not plugged into the Hydra.The VX is strickly digital.

The Anaconna Alpha is great on the Hydra 2 with Power Amps and tube Preamps.
I had a Python VX for a while and did not like it.(But it was not plugged into the original Hydra.).

So I guess it depends on what you plug into the original Hydra. Primarily digital the Anacondona-VX primarily analog the Alpha

I use both the original Hydra and Hydra-8, and I really preferred the Elrod pcs (either Signature-3 or Statement) versus the Python.
