Shunyata Typhon T2

With T2 being in a denali size chassi. The NIC’s are ofcourse alot smaller than in the Typhon QR. Are the NIC’s slightly smaller than the Tritonv3 as well then?

I’m trying to gauge its performance but size is not everything? :)

What is the fundamental difference T2 vs Typhon QR? Apart from being 3-zone is there something else but smaller NIC’s or are there other effective optimizations that comes closer to QR than before?
 
Of course Shunyata announce a new product when my Everest is on the truck heading west to me from the dealer.
 
You're fine. It's for everything BUT Everest since you have everything in the Everest already.
 
My guess is better if you power the V2/T2 from separate dedicated lines.


I was thinking of the configuration with the T2 feeding the Denali v2 via the umbilical cable with just the one AC power cable.

From looking at the product info, Denali V2 + Typhon T2 were designed to provide performance equivalent to Everest using the specifically-designed umbilical, you don't need to use a dedicated power cord for each. A key function of connnecting the Typhon module to the Denali power distributor using the umbilical is that it provides connection of the Denali's AC receptacles to the significantly larger QR/BB device inside the Typhon chassis.
 
Denali V2 (6,000) + Typhon T2 (5,500) + Reference Umbilical (1,250) = 12,750
Everest = 9,900

Does combo #1 outperform the Everest? Considering it's almost 30% more expensive.

The V2/T2 combo would still lack the CMode filter that is in the Everest. Assuming that the QR/BB & NIC components of the T2 are additive with their counterparts in the V2, the question then becomes whether those combined elements are more effective than their counterparts in the Everest. If not, then the Everest would be the clear winner. If they are, then both the V2/T2 combo & the Everest would have each some qualities that are better, & some that are worse, than the other. And therefore each might be the superior performer, depending on the systems they are used with. I wonder what Caelin's take on this is. And I assume that eventually someone will try a "shootout"...
 
I think it is option for those who already have Denali V1 or V2 but not ready to move up to Everest yet. Otherwise go all the way with Everest will be the most cost effecient.

I saw the suggested application in their website, I am just wondering if we can use all 3 outlets (e.g. umbilical for Denali, and 2 other outlets for monoblock amps.
 
According to the folks at Shunyata - "We'll wait for customer, dealer and distributor feedback to confirm this but Caelin thinks the Typhon T2/Denali 6000S v2 combo might end up being a bit better then the Everest."
 
You'd think they'd be close in performance. The Typhon T2/Denali 6000S/v2 is $1000 more expensive MSRP than the Everest. Same number of outlets. The choice between the two would probably come down to form factor. For me the tower chassis is appealing because it's not taking up shelf space. And the $1000 saved on purchase price would buy half a power cable.
 
How does one connect the Altaira to the V2/T2 combo? Altaira to the V2? or to the T2? I want to say the T2 since it's the "last" component before the wall.
 
CGC cable from Altaira to the Typhon T2 ground terminal. Then, a "jumper" CGC cable from T2 to the Denali terminal.
 
I’m a bit confused by this. Why would you need a jumper between T2 and Denali? It already has the 30A umbilical?

Listening-wise there might be a point though?
 
Does the umblilical option mean you can actually connect THREE not just two components ? (two via the regular outlets and the third one via umbilical)
