Electraglide Ultra Kahn / Shunyata Anaconda vx

Audiofrankj,

I agree completely. I use to mix and match like a mad scientist trying to get the right balance: add a little NBS for extension and soundstage, an Elrod for bass and midrange balance and put the Electra Glide Ultra Khan on the tranport etc. Yet, I could never make it all sound how I really wanted it to.

I was worried that an all Electra Glide system could be too much of a good thing, like when I had too many NBS power cables in my system, but they are so balanced and faultless that it worked out perfectly.

No offense Mejames, I just gave you a little dig after you gave me two of them. I am sure the XLO cables sound great and I'll take your word that they sound better than the Anaconda. Just as I am sure you will give us all the benefit of the doubt how great the Electra Glide cables sound.

On another subject: Michael, did you find me in your records yet? I really enjoyed dealing with you as you are a gentleman. Please clearify this and let this thread know that Jason McGuire of Coral Gables, FL did infact have a Gain cable for a short period of time before I returned it to you. Thanks, Jason.

Yes I did Jason and I do remember you. True you did try the older version of the Gain cord which has now been replaced by a newer model. Springbok is one of the three that have them in his system. I also remember that it was a pleasure working with you.

Hope things are going well for you.
Best,
Michael

Thanks Michael I appreciate the clarification.
So you have a revised version of the Gain cord out? Very interesting.

Could some of you guys in the know please give us your educated opinions on the following??? -

-- Compare the sonic signatures of the Mini-Khan, Mini-Khan Plus and Ultra-Khan Statement II/Rev

-- Where do you think each model is at its best in a system (ie, on an amp, PLC, CD player, tube preamp, etc)?

I ask because I have 2 M-K Pluses and 1 M-K, (along with a plethura of Shunyatas and a pair of Elrod Sig's) and would like to know the best place to devote each cable.

BTW - I just bought a new BPT 3.5 Signature PLC. Chris has just changed the ENTIRE chassis to anodized black, thick ALUMINUM (instead of the thinner brushed-silver stainless steel). It has FAR better EMI/RFI and resonance control, and looks fantastic - a much more substantial and classy design.

It still comes standard with the 'extra' faceplate in your choice of silver or black, and is still a luggable 80 pounds. I intend to use one of my Elrod Sigs on it when I finally get all my gear placed in its final rack locations.

Jason to clarify I said "compared against the Python" not the Anaconda. another question now it's 4 posts on Audiogon and at least 2 posts on Audio asylum regarding the new Epiphany PC and a customer review on the Electra Glide website you have some vested financial interest in this company or what? sure looks fishy to me being it all occurred within the last 48 hours.
