HT - Krell Evolution 403e monster amp and Krell S1200 processor - both have hurricane cords.



When I first installed the hurricane cord I heard a noticeable improvement over the Shunyata cords that were previously in place. When the firebird cords were installed, I didn’t notice as much improvement over the hurricane. I think hurricane is really good for the price. I thought about getting a Dragon, but I am not sure it’s worthwhile given the huge price difference.

Thanks Rich. Very helpful. I’m building a combination 2 channel/theater as well, with an emphasis on 2 channel. Room/house should be finished by end of month. I currently use Shunyata Alpha HC power cords and a Denali 6000/T so your comments are very helpful in more ways than one.
