Am I right?
Unfortunaly, I forgot to mention that both pres and power from ARC, have a C19 connector so as the cables that currently feed them. Even so, I will try to follow your optimised proposed layout, through an SR adapter for the (not so critical) LPS on the TT, and the not so easy to solve Alpha NR v2 for the Ref6 Pre...
Would it be worth to get an SR adapter C15->19 in order to put the Alpha NR v2 on the Pre Ref6?
- PS10 Conditioner (C15) - Sigma NR (C15)
- ARC Ref6 Pre (C19) - Alpha NR v2 (C15) *** Problem, adapter C15->19?? ***
- ARC GS150 Amp (C19) - Sigma NR (C19)
- Wadia Si7 DAC/CD (C15) - Alpha Digital (C15)
- Nucleus Roon / LPS Hypsos (C15) - Venom NR v12 (C15)
- ARC Ref3 Phono (C19) - Python CXA (C19)
- LPS / Bergman Turntable - Alpha HC (C19) / through adapter 19->15

The adapter would work. A better solution would be to contact Shunyata and see if they would re-terminate the Alpha NR v2 to C19 for you.
