I enjoy my Z-PC10 Digital and was surprised by the improvement they made over stock power cords.
As I understand it the Shunyata filters are meant to filter the different noise problems from different power supply technologies: digital for switched power supplies like the Devialet, analog for linear power supplies, but I don't understand the filter for high-current cords. Shunyata has a nice chart of specs. for the cords and another recommending which cord to use in which application.
The Z-PC10 has a CopperConn (copper terminal) connector on the wall side and a low-profile (but lower quality) connector on the amp side. While still 10-guage like an Alpha it is very flexible and easy to work with (not too heavy). The low-profile connector isn't a tight fit in the Devialet (nor is the stock power cable) but the Z-PC10 doesn't drag itself down in the Devialet too much.
Thanks, Mollengijs, for your comparisons between Shunyata cords. Guillaume, I look forward to your findings with Shunyata. Personally I someday want to compare Synergistic Research cords. I'm interested in AudioQuest connectors (their silver-plated copper seems better than any other option) but their cords are thin gauge compared to Shunyata. I also want to hear their new Denali series of power distributors.
Shunyata have been very helpful to talk with, so where their website is lacking just give them a call or email.
