Thread: Shunyata 6000S V2 Review

Yoh K, Agree the Cheng was not a good match for my Tube Amp but Ok on the Digital front end-- yes certainly not on any serious power unit/regenerator/conditioner/etc.

though I was told Nelson Pass packages the Cheng with his Units--interesting

The Hirakawas were sonically cleaner and gave tad better openess to the staging in my setup.

YVMV.
Agree with you on the removal of some of the Hi End cabling bits and bobs--took gritting of teeth but worth it-ha!

GSOphile, I have a Topaz line isolation transformer. I wired it in line to my power strip. It pretty much 100% evens out the fluctuations in intensity of humming in my system. It keeps it all at a very low level. So I know I have outside influences. But, it does not sound so good. You hear the transformer. I guess we are all hearing a utility transformer, and the transformers in out equipment. But I don't like the sound of iso transformers. I also have a medical Isolation transforner. Same thing.

I need to test the denali again to see if it stops outside noise. That or get new amps that have a regulated power supply and are less susceptible to noise.
I play music at night very quiet and it just sucks to hear loud buzzing in the evening when trying to relax. During the day its pretty quiet. You have to listen for the noise between songs. Its definitely there but not in your face.

FWIW, this thread is not about cables. But power cables are part of what connect to the Denali.

Just one diversion. Even though I find some very inexpensive power cables sound good. The exact opposite is true of speaker, digital and to a degree interconnexts. Crappy digital cables are harsh, grating and cloudy. Same for speaker. Interconnect are sensitive but not as intense a negative impact with low quality as the impact of a bad ethernet, usb or speaker cable.

Kingrex, sounds like you already know what you need to do first, rather than putting more/different perfume on the pig.
