My layman's guesses:
  • Anaconda Zitron --> Alpha/Sigma v1: lost the Zitron circuit in favor of revised filter in Alpha and filter + TAP module in Sigma; retained all copper VTX geometry wiring
  • Alpha/Sigma v1 --> Alpha/Sigma v2: change from all copper to the new silver/copper VTX ArNi wiring; now just one or two TAP modules, respectively
Just a correction in the interests of accuracy, the single module in the new Alpha V2 S/PDIF and the two modules in the Sigma V2 S/PDIF digital cables are CMode filters, not TAP modules.
