Shunyata Research ZiTron Cobra AC Power Cable, US plug - C15 IEC, 1.8M length

The Zitron/Etron Cobra is without qualification the finest price-to-performance power cord that Shunyata Research has ever created.

The Absolute Sound Editors' Choice



The Zitron Cobra will always be our first — and most often only power cord recommendation for those seeking state-of-the-art performance — with one eye on value.

The performance difference of even one of the Zitron models makes, will force you to re-evaluate the role a truly exceptional power cord can play in your music, film or recording system.

The speed, depth, and resolution this cable is provides will truly stun you. With the Cobra, spending less actually does deliver more state-of-the-art performance.



The Cobra Zi-Tron looks like a real cobra – it is black, it is thick and it is a real visual predator in any room.
The Cobra uses light thick core that is surrounded by braided conductor strands so it is surprisingly very flexible.
Despite it can be comfortably bended behind a rack I recommend being cautious with some lighter components (like D/A processors) that can be pulled down by its mass.
Still, both cane be used without any hesitation with power hungry amplifiers or power filters.



In the recordings I used for the review the Cobra Zi-Tron wonderfully opened up the soundstage to the level of my Nordost Valhalla reference cables.
The lateral spread as well as the depth were not limited by anything, the sound just naturally filled up my room.
The naturalness was helped by the Cobra’s rich and organic presentation that was supported by well defined and deep digging bass.
The latter was the area where the Cobra outperformed my reference cables.
The result is that the sound of the Cobra is darker, saturated and dense to certain degree and therefore it requires careful matching.
On the other hand, though ‘darker’, the Cobra is transparent, focused and fast, full of shining colours and easily bringing up the nuancees like ambient details of a concert hall or a studio.
On top of that it possesses dynamic swing that energizes the room and makes your feet tap.
I had the best results with the Cobra Zi-Tron feeding my power amplifier; with the SACD player the improvements (though in the same direction) were not so apparent, but I am accustomed to this as my Accuphase DP-78 player is not overly sensitive to power cables.

Addicted To Audio - Initial Impressions? Hmmm
- this thing works, we just double blind tested ourselves using the Woo Audio Transport and Woo Audio DAC feeding the Burson Soloist
- difference between stock IEC and the Shunyata? Only two things but they matter so much
- lowered noise floor and sound stage. The V200 now has sound stage to rival a stock Woo Audio WA2 tube head amp
- everything being pitch black when the artists take a pause
- recommended -this thing is not like a lot of other 'pretend' snake oil power cords
- it is the result of real knowledge about power transfer and actual multiple patents in relation to the discipline.
