RE: same experience

Hi Grant,
If that was my response, please let me offer a belated sincere apology for both the wording and my rudeness with you.

The project included two Hydra 4s with some internal differences. Here is the entire paragraph with the comparison in my "DIY Hydra" project that you misinterpreted to prefer the DIY version:

"And the results? After using the two power conditioners with different components – both tube and solid state – and at different times of day and night, I reached the conclusion that the "DIY Hydra" was a sonic twin to the production Shunyata Hydra 4, taking into account the additional purity provided by eliminating the varistor in my "DIY Hydra". I found that similar performance to a $700 manufactured product could be obtained for an expense of roughly $100 and some time and effort. The downside is that the "DIY Hydra" has a resale value of effectively zero. The well-reviewed - and deservedly so - Shunyata Hydra 4 will retain its value far better."

I surely do like your CX power cables! I hope the fact that I like and use some of your excellent products doesn't keep potential buyers away.

Regards,
JerryS
