Congrats. Please provide your thoughts once you have these in your system.
I have recently added Alpha & Delta power cables, and are thinking about adding Alpha coax and/or USB cable.

Congrats, I think you’ll be pretty happy, I was very pleased at the difference when I installed all my Shunyata power cables, the Alphas are very nice and well constructed as well.

Hi Craig,
Not a cable, a very short USB A to B "adapter", between the Sonore microRendu and the Schiit Gumby. Haven't put it in yet...

So far, listening to the DAC (Schiit Gumby), with AQ Columbia and Shunyata Venom RCA ICs, one plugged into one set of outlets and the other in the other set, so I can just flip between cables by selecting between the Tuner or CD inputs on the CT-5's remote, I can't tell any difference between these cables at all. They are as close to identical as two cables could be.

Both are excellent!
