For what it's worth, I have just replaced my excellent Esoteric PC9300 (this cable has a near mythical reputation in Japan) by a second hand Shunyata Etron Sigma HC 15amp for my Devialet 250.
The whole thing is fed by a PS Audio P10.
I must say that I am impressed, the sound is even better, I would dare to say truly excellent.
Now, there is a small problem since the cable's IEC's diameter is a bit too large and interferes slightly with the inner side wall of the D250, which prevents the power cable from engaging fully, but this doesn't seem to cause any issue.
The Shunyata Etron Sigma HC is considered by some in North America as the best power cable regardless of the price, and it may be true from what I am hearing.
Cheers,
Bernard

Did you compare Shuntaya with and without PS Audio ?
On the other hand did someone tested different cable on Melko. Is the importance of the effect as great as with Devialet.
Regards
Bob

Just saw this one. Any users?
Ha, I am a long time Synergistic owner. I really like the sound and the fact that the resale value is usually excellent. I just might contact The Cable Company to see about an audition.

Cabledyne builds one with Furutech IEC that fits under the cover. I am thinking of trying them. I have Cabledyne link-cable between my Devialets and one Cabledyne USB cable, really nice buildquality and the price is nice.

Thanks for pointing this. I have not heard Cabledyne before. The price for the cable is indeed very attractive. Will curious about its performance.
