Re: Ascending to even greater heights
Wondering, based on my current Shunyata power conditioners, whether I'd really benefit from stepping up to the Everest, either in its current configuration or a future rack-based design. Any thoughts?

Re: Ascending to even greater heights
....I thought the company said there won't be a horizontal S version of Everest.

Re: Ascending to even greater heights
Thanks for pointing that out. Guess I'll simply need to get an Everest demo unit in house, to see if it makes for superior solution over what I have today. And if the big leap in cost is warranted by a big leap in SQ.

Re: Ascending to even greater heights
Lucky you have that option. For others it will be a leap of faith. As for the big leap in cost, that depends how you measure it. Denali > Everest is a leap of $3K. But the more appropriate comparison might be Tv3+TQR/BB > Everest which isn't a leap at all. More like a fall of about $10K.

Re: Ascending to even greater heights
Indeed. The price is very reasonable for a product supposed to be the best there is, whatever the price. Meaning that it may be used together with components costing 10 or 20 times more.
Also if you compare it to a PS Audio P20, eventhough most people seem to think that the Denali V2 is already ahead of the P20.
Cheers,
Bernard

Re: Ascending to even greater heights
I was half-way thinking of getting one, or three, but the current version is impractical for me. I would need one for each amp since they both have a dedicated 20 amp line, and one for my source gear, which would only use three ports.

Re: Ascending to even greater heights
Hi Caelin,
I am happy to report that I have an Everest on order.
One question I asked recently in another of the many Evert threads but you probably didn't see.
The question is about grounding. I intend to connect to the Everest the 2 Devialet units and my source (currently a LPS feeding a Mac mini).
There are other devices in my system such as the Melco hub, an RJ45 -> optical converter, an Apple TV, a Bluray/SACD player, A PS4,... that I intend to feed from a PS8 connected with a Venon V10 NR to another plug in the wall.
I am wondering how you would recommend to manage the grounding. Are the following assumptions correct?
- all the devices connected to the Everest with power cables will be natively grounded and don't require any additional measure
- what matters to avoid ground loop currents resulting from different ground potential is to connect electrically all the elements of the system to the same grounding reference
- it should be sufficient to connect the grounding terminal of the PS8 to one of the 4 grounding terminals of the Everest to ensure that all the components connected to the PS8 and Everest are at the same ground potential and therefore don't see any ground loop currents
In case you have a white paper on grounding somewhere I'd of course be glad to read it.
Thank you.
Cheers,
Bernard

Ascending to even greater heights
My order is in, can’t wait. Haven’t been excited about a product in awhile. Maybe because this will improve 8 different components at the same time, including HT side of things. I currently have original Denali 6000T + AQ Niagara 1000, so expect a bigger leap of performance than 6000S/V2.

Re: Ascending to even greater heights
Caelin,
Is CGS addressing signal ground or earth ground? Or both?
-
June 3, 2020, 06:36 PM #220
Re: Ascending to even greater heights
Is the CGS similar to TRIPOINT, Entreq or other grounding box products?
There are many chassis grounding and signal grounding products, and both types of products provide a common grounding point. However, the method of reducing ground noise varies by manufacturer. The CGS is a patented chassis grounding system only and was not designed for signal ground connections. The CGS Chassis Grounding System is compatible with any signal grounding type product — just don’t connect them together.

Re: Ascending to even greater heights
You know, when we started making power cords 20 years ago, many experts, engineers and other know it alls said it was all BS. That power cords couldn't possibly make a difference and then they would launch into some theoretical reasoning as to why they were obviously correct. Asking them to actually "try it" then talk about what they heard was beneath their dignity. Now I know you are not one of those guys but I preface this answer with this statement because they are out there - lurking.
Even though the practice of grounding components goes back decades in the military and telecommunications industry as a safety measure, there are significant sonic benefits in an audio system. In our power cords, we pay special attention to the ground wire in the cord because we have found that it can very profoundly affect sonic performance.
So the simple answer to why we have different levels of grounding cables is that there are audible differences. Very similar to the differences between power cables. The only advice I can offer beyond that is to try it and prove or disprove it for yourself.

Re: Ascending to even greater heights
Trying equipment or getting a demo is not a theory, it is a decision to exercise before buying something. I do understand that getting a demo or evaluation of exotic equipment is not always easy or practical. But when possible it is very important.
Testing different sizes and types of grounding cables can be done quite easily. Just go to your Home Depot store and get some different types to test. This is enough to satisfy anyone’s curiosity as to whether ground cables “sound” different when used in a grounding system. After that, getting more exotic cables such as ours of course depends upon having access to a good dealer or distributor. This is why it is important to develop a good relationship with a dealer.
Too many customers in today’s internet economy use a dealers time and expertise and then go online to save 5-10%. Dealers obviously don’t like this because they feel used and taken advantage of. I know many dealers that have said they are happy to loan equipment to potential customers if they know they are trust worthy. So when you buy and sell products based solely on reviews or forum recommendations you will actually end up paying far more than if you had the help and expertise of a good dealer. In other words, the extra margin you pay with a dealer is often a bargain in the end.
Some people that I know who live in remote areas and have no easy access to a good dealer will organize an audio expedition to a nearby city for the sole purpose of trying various products that they are interested in.
Look I know it’s not easy. These are not commodity products that are mass produced. By creative and when you find a good source for products, support them so that they are there for you the next time you are interested in something.

Re: Ascending to even greater heights
Well said. Without good dealers, I wouldn't have the system, and thus, the enjoyment I have today. If I take up a dealer's time and decide to buy the product, I make it a point to make the purchase from that dealer as I wouldn't have the comfort level with that product without that demo (for example, I always thought the M400s were insanely priced until my dealer let me demo them for two days using my music in his system regarding which I was very familiar - after the audition the price seemed "reasonable" even without any real discount off of list). But I also do my homework and don't waste dealer time unless I am actually ready to buy - it's a two way street and the client also needs to be reasonable. Where the dealer is out of town, we turn it into a vacation so everyone's happy.

Re: Ascending to even greater heights
My experience is the opposite (in the dealer demo context). I've never seen anything demo'd at an audio dealer that tempted me to buy it. And dealers spruiking stuff with utter BS drivel. I do have a dealer on the other side of the country (a seven day return drive away) who I find to be excellent. Never having stepped in his store I place all my significant orders with him. Maybe close to $200K worth of orders with that one dealer. He doesn't need a store to sell me stuff.

Re: Ascending to even greater heights
My Everest and Omega XC are scheduled to arrive tomorrow. I’ll compare them with my Denali 6000/S v2 + Typhon QR + Sigma v1 in my stereo system which power my front end components and preamp.
I ordered a Sigma v2 umbilical cord to go between my my Denali + Typhon QR which I will eventually try with the Everest/Omega combo directly from the wall outlet sans Typhon.
The Sigma v2 umbilical arrived yesterday, but unfortunately it was damaged and also had the wrong termination at one end, so it is going to be exchanged by Shunyata by another with the correct termination.
I’m curious to see if the Typhon + Sigma v2 umbilical with the Everest will bring down the performance in comparison to the Everest with the Omega directly into its dedicated 20 amp AC line.
I was really hoping to try the Sigma v2 umbilical with my Denali + Typhon to get an impression of what it does in my present configuration before the Everest arrives, but that is not meant to be for now until it is replaced. In the meantime, I will let the Everest + Omega break-in to compare it with my Denali + Sigma v1 and Sigma v1 umbilical between my Denali + Typhon.STEREO: Roon Nucleus, DCS Rossini DAC & Clock, Ayre KX-R TWENTY, Ayre MX-R TWENTY, Sonus Faber Stradivari speakers, WireWorld Platinum Eclipse 8 interconnects, and speaker cables, Shunyata Research Omega power cords, Shunyata Everest power distributor with Omega power cord, Dedicated 20amp AC lines with Oyaide Duplexes.

Re: Ascending to even greater heights
So excited to ascend into the Everest club. Having had the Denali 6000s V2 I was absolutely shocked what pulling it out of the system did - musicality collapsed to the point that even adding some Nordost Valhalla2 SC did not bring it back "the magic" back to where it was with the Denali. Seriously jonesing to hear the richness of real music again until the Everest shows up. Fantastic work, Mr. Gabriel!
Quick question - what percentage of of the Everest will I be hearing with the Sigma EF 20A umbilical vs some of the new recommended ones like Omega XC and Sigma XC?LUMIN U1 Mini, Chord DAVE, Chord MScaler, SR Galileo BNCs, Wireworld Starlight Cat 8, AQ Cinnamon Cat 6 Synergistic Research Atmosphere X Ethernet CAT6, Synergistic Research Galileo UEF Blue Fuse Treated SC, SR L4IC, Shunyata Sigma NR PCs, Shunyata Denali 6000S v2 conditioner, Shunyata EF PC, Magico S3Mk2, Gryphon Diablo 300, Furutech GTX & Oyaide SWO outlets driven by dedicated 30A homerun 10gauge AC lines wired according to MSB Technologies best practices for wiring your house for best power: http://www.msbtechnology.com/faq/how...or-good-power/.

Re: Ascending to even greater heights
I expect you will be very happy. I'm not sure why there hasn't been more talk about the Everest, but Caelin wasn't overselling it when he said it is the culmination of his work to date. I was using a Triton v3 for my front end components and when switching out to the Everest it was clear within the first few notes that the Everest is a clear advance over his earlier work (this coming from a skeptic expecting to be disappointed given the hype - I had decided before trying the Everest that if the improvement over the Triton v3 was only 10-15% then I would stick with the Triton v3). Strangely, there isn't really any break in with the Everest; it pretty much sounds perfect from the moment you plug it in and your equipment warms up (I am using my existing VH Audio Trans PC so if you are also using a new PC there will be a break in period for that cable but in that case you're really hearing Everest plus PC so it's not an apples to apples comparison versus whatever power conditioner you are currently using).

Re: Ascending to even greater heights
I picked up a demo Everest from my local dealer today. The box had never been opened and I basically just inserted it where my Denali had been. The dealer didn’t have the newer PC’s so I just used the Alpha HÇ I had been using. To be truthful I was not expecting a significant improvement over the Denali since no power amps were involved just my pre-amp and my dCS units. Immediately I knew something was different. The sound “seemed” more expansive and possibly with greater weight. This was with no break-in at all.

Re: Ascending to even greater heights
My Everest arrived this morning, it’s been in the system for a few hours and already it’s obvious that this a very significant upgrade.
It replaced a Denali and I’m using the Denali’s Sigma EF to the wall.
I really like the silver faceplate, it matches my system very nicely, which the Denali never did.

Yeah, Everest is just...insane.
First time I heard it I was saying, "G*dd*mmit, Caelin, now I have to buy this!" Heheheh. And this was coming from a Denali V2 powered by a Sigma NRv2. Which is no slouch.
It's sooo good; it's just ridiculous how good it is. As I first mentioned when it debuted, it's like going from a Porsche GT2 RS Manthey Racing to a Porsche 919 Evo Hybrid. Jeez...

I have all of ours on the floor. Never thought the need to add something else. I think Caelin already integrated something into the feet for this.

Re: Ascending to even greater heights
thy you two for the clear answer.
is it because the everest doesnt benefit from any stand?
i remember you did put your one on a stand.
do you think the nagra-base could even be bad?
maybe i would like it for optical reasons, the dimensions are perfect, 2cm longer and 7 wider than the everest.
i will decide tomorrow.
