Shunyata V Ray


Anyone own one of these? If so how does it compare to the Hydra 8?

This is a really beautiful power supply. Now, I have to figure out if I can afford it?
Indirstr8s,
Yes, the V-Ray really has a break in period. My soundstage is the deepest and most focused it has ever been. The amount of nuances and micro details I am hearing from my familiar recordings is also improved. This upgrade was very much worth it for me.
Does anyone also compare Hydra 8 + Python Alpha vs Hydra V Ray + Voodoo? I mean to compare the price/performance.
Klinsmanner,

The huge difference is in the power conditioner's. The power cord difference isn't as noticeable.
I had the Shunyata Hydra 8 for 4 weeks while I was waiting for the V-ray to arrive from US and I was very impressed the first time I tried, the sound was more evolving, detail and natural but I have to recalibrate my rel strata III the bass was lowered once I received the new V-Ray all the benefits from the Hydra were improved noticeable and the bass came alive. Personally I have found that every review about the V-Ray explain with details the benefits of this power conditioner with no exagerations. I also have a JVC Ultra Slim 65" HDTV and the image never have been better even after calibration.
