Compared to my Synergistic Accelerators the Alpha was not an improvement, in MY system, too bright and analytical sounding, lacking in warmth and bass punch.

Re: My experience with the K-03XD
Thanks. I read somewhere that the new discrete clock debuted in the K-05XD so perhaps the 05XD, which was released 3 years later than the 03XD, already has some of the upgrades 🤔

Shunyata Alpha vs AQ Pegasus/Thunderbird
Those of you who have heard these interconnects, how do they compare? Sonic characteristics?

Great to hear that it is not thin and analytical sounding like some older cdp’s from Eso sometimes can be described.
