New Shunyata Videos
Hi Guys,
We just finished shooting a new series of videos, shot by Wilson's very talented filmographer, Brian Capener.
Videos
They cover a variety of topics, including the two foundational concepts for all we do in power; Dynamic Transient Current Delivery and Component to Component Interference. The A.S.C.C measurement Caelin conducts midway through the DTCD video makes a very compelling statement regarding why stock power cords and cheap outlets underperform when used with A/V electronics.
Other videos that may be worth watching are the short parts videos, especially the outlet comparison, showcasing what is normally found in the wall and something better.
Your comments and questions are always welcome, whether posted here or sent in directly. We hold no illusions regarding our on-screen talents, so forgive the lack of "star" quality .
Our goal was was purely informational; explaining our point of view and displaying the tools/measurements we use to create products that are unique in terms of their design and performance.
We'd like to thank everyone for the support and feedback we receive here and through phone and e-mail. Your comments, whether thoughtfully critical or positive are always appreciated.
Best regards,
Grant

Re: New Shunyata Videos
We all know that a stock power cord is going to underperform when compared to anything else. How about comparing your products with a reputable Brand "B" which could be any other audiophile cable out there using your proprietary methodology?
Similarly, why aren't other cable manufacturers using your accepted measuring methodologies? It's out there... Is it because the methodologies have yet to be accepted in the broader electrical industry or is it that Shunyata have locked up the methodology as part of the invention's patents & trademarks, therefore making it inaccessible to anyone other than the inventor?
Your principles of "DTCD" have been marketed for many years now. I would be much happier to read some industry collaboration on the research & development that Shunyata is doing.
As for component to component interference, other vendors have indeed been addressing this for years, with inline power filters particularly in the medical equipment industry. And of course in the audiophile industry, vendors like Furutech have had a strong reputation with the success of their inline power filter products such as the Furutech Flux FI-50. Undoubtedly electrical equipment/components contribute to dirty power, that is why it is. More importantly, it is the customer's network of components that needs the most attention because that is where most of the localised interactive transfer is happening, as you have similarly stated in your latest video. Whether that interference be injected directly into the line or indirectly via EM/RF interferences. You will appreciate that an unshielded cable has the potential to cause interference & affect the performance & operation of sensitive equipment.
I use Shunyata Hydras for distribution & while they do their job, passively distributing power to my dense component racks, the real performance gains come from the Furutech FI-50 inline power filters that are used on every component in the localised network (between the component & the Hydras). The effect is immediate, cumulative & easily discernable, even to the untrained listener.
I guess addressing component to component interference is now a focus with your latest generation Zitron cable product line, similar to that of the IEC power filter that is in use by the rest of the industry.

High praise, indeed. I might just have to check these out when funds allow for an upgrade. Thanks, Mike!
