Harmonic Tech Pro AC-11 vs Acoustic Zen Tsunami

I'm generally a HT fan (I/C's & Spkr cables) but after several attempts with theit AC-11 power cord it never synergized with any part of my audio chain, YMMV. I'm not familiar with AZ's Tsunami (although I just purchased a Matrix Ref 2 I/C I'm currently breaking in). My personal favorite in P/C's when it comes to moderate price to [good] performance ratio has been the VH Audio Flavor 4. I've always been curious about the Shunyata line but haven't jumped in there yet. Good luck and happy Lissn'n.

Are the Shunyata Taipan's copper, silver, or mixture of both? What about the plug ends IEC, (copper, silver, brass)? Are the Helix the newer versions? Thanks for the all the answers. Trying to find a good powercord for solid state amp McCormack DNA1 dlx.

I had a DNA-0.5 Deluxe. And DNA-125 and DNA-225. Shunyata or Audience works very good with McCormack amps. I tried Flavor 4 and liked it less than the Shunyata or Audience.

Taipan helix Alpha is new version.

I think Taipan Alpha is copper. Audience is as well. Taipan has some kind of plating on conectors. Shunatya power cords are excellent. Don't worry what they're made off. Just try one.

Audphile1, I know the grass is always greener on the other side. Just wondering how the Pass Labs X250.5 compare to the MccCormack DNA-225 you used to have? Thanks

I've heard both power cords, and between the two, would prefer the HT Pro AC11. I found the Tsunami to be far too warm. The Audience PowerChord is also an all-round good performer.
