Can't comment on the Typhon, but when I sent my Cyclops off to be upgraded to v2, I was amazed at the grunge I was hearing plugged directly into the wall. When they were returned I was in heaven. Use the Sigmas from the amps to the Cyclops, and find a pair of used Zitron Anacondas from the Cyclips to the wall. I love my stereo now with the full Shunyata setup.
Of course, if you never hear it with Cyclops then you don't know what you are missing.
