Footers (third party) for Esoteric gear
Any Esoteric owner has experimented with such? Footers you put under equipment, like Stillpoints or Finite Elemente, etc.
The built in footers on my N-01XD look substantial, but curiosity got a... -

Re: TAS 312 - Everest & Omega
Someone correct me if wrong, but I think the grounding on Everest is a chassis ground, not signal ground.
And since my components are all powered by the Everest via the AC cords, and all of them... -

If those components are plugged into the Everest, and they have proper ground pins, why do you have to “ground” them to the Everest via that grounding cable?

Re: TAS 311 Review of Everest, Omega XC and Sigma NR V2
Thanks!
I wouldn’t say in a decade for me, but right up there, equivalent to a component upgrade, like to a better Amp, or to a SOTA DAC. And that is a lot to say in my book. -

I have the N-01XD using it via its Ethernet input / interface, and have zero interest in trying other digital inputs. It sounds fabulous !

And you are of course, right. Perhaps something like the Venom NR v12 would be the sweet spot

Re: recommend to me which Shunyata power cable?
The EF is the older version of the current XC v2 series. You may want something with NR (noise reduction), such as Delta NR v2, or even better, Alpha NR v2 if you can afford it

Can someone chime in on the small LED lights in the bottom front of the Everest? There are two, the one on top is lit blue(ish), there is no light at the bottom one. Normal?
