Ascending to even greater heights

would it even sound better if the omega was connected directly inside the eversest, without the plugs?

There is no need for such tweaks. The plugs and connectors are all exceptional. The inconvenience of having a large, heavy chassis with a captive cord the size of the Omega would be incredibly burdensome. And it is not necessary. There is MORE than enough performance available from the Everest and Omega.

thx, the fastest answer ever!
 
Absolutely. Not to answer for RLF but many people report that the Denali or other Hydra models have significantly improved video performance.

do you really state that the picture of video or tv gets better with better pc/distributor??
not my experiance at all

That is exactly my experience with the V2 cables. Alpha 2 NR for sources/preamps, XC's for Tritons. There is an increased clarity and definition, color separation, white is more white etc., ANSI contrast without distorting or making it look fake-HDR. Extremely transparent picture.

lol, sounds religious to me.
no display review has mentined anything like this the last 30 years. it would be measurable easely as well.
i did change multiple tv, from tube tv until 4k, from bad placing to highend racks, footers, pc and distributors. the picture never changed. the sound did.
i ll report back once i get the everset
 
My 75" Sony Z9D TV had great picture improvements with an older (4-5 years) Shunyata power cord. Plus I had to splice in a socket to the TV in order to use the power cord.

great improvements even:)
well, i am a non-beliver so far.
then again glad for everybody it worked

Most people are "non-believers". We have an ancestral trail of "converts" going back more than 20 years. Each one needed to prove it to themselves.

Try it yourself. Use a decent TV or monitor and a good DVD 4K source.
The Venom V14 Digital PC is a good inexpensive cable to use for such a test.

And there are many reviews where this has been mentioned. Some people even claiming that it improved the video for their computer monitors.
 
Maybe you are more of critical listener rather than a critical viewer? It’s not unheard of.

Nope, not religion...empirical data.

You can even obtain a sharper, crisper picture with deeper blacks even "just" using the Venom V14D Digital power cord. But a Shunyata power distributor results in increased saturation, sharper, crisper and more detailed picture and blacker blacks. And, notably improved audio from the video content.

It is analogous to viewing a 16-bit TIFF image from a digital camera shot at ISO 200 vs. an 8-bit JPEG image shot at IS01600.

Less Distortion = Improved Sound and Picture.

and more detailed picture

first of all thx everybody for not shooting me having a different opinion.
actually i tried a lot and never managed to change the picture. there are some display freak around who can measure really everything of difference even the slightest degree. they made leds and processors to theyr day and night hobby. i read theyr magazines for 30 years and none of them have ever suggested to use a "better" pc or distributor. they would if it made sense. picture is not audio, its hardware. not saying i am right, it is just my very own perception.
however, i liked the "more detailed picture" and wondering what it could be?

Stay tuned. Full Everest details coming June 1, 2020

Great news! Exciting times.

I am always favorably impressed by the companies that execute on June first an earlier announcement phrased as "sometime in June".

All to often it ends up meaning June-30. :-)

Cheers,

Regarding video and power delivery:

I have two critical display devices in my setup.
1. Dell 3218K 8K monitor running straight to wall with a stock powercord (I will get to it, but it needs a slightly longer cable with thin IEC end)
2. Sim2 DLP projector projecting on Stewart Cinecurve with a Furutech 8ga cord running on a Venom EU7/Sigma HC (previously Venom HC).

I have two critical display sources in my setup.
1. Apple TV 4K with Alpha V2 NR+V14 C5 Adapter running on a TritonV3/Sigma XC (Previous cables were Sigma Digital and Sigma HC)
2. AMD Threadripper Workstation 1.6kW PSU, editing , gaming, work. with Venom HC cord running on a Venom EU7/Sigma HC (previously Venom HC and stock powercord).

So this is an example where the display source is not on the same circuit as the display device. What I noticed in both these instances as I gradually improved the power delivery, in this case with Shunyata cables on the display source, actually rendered a better picture on the display device even though I did not change the actual power cord/delivery of the display device.

In Audio we have something called jitter, the term is broadly used to cover almost any time-based smear of the digital audio signals. Ofcourse that could still apply to digital video signals but we are not usually discussing it, it's mostly either it works (picture) or it doesn't (no picture). Cables in audio can improve jitter measurably, why not in video?

Caelin is spot on that everyone have to prove it or disprove it to themselves, an opinion is just that. GLHF!
 
Not unless they have active technology in them, no.

The oldest article about cables effect on jitter that I remember was when a stereophile reviewer played around with a jitter analyzer and different digital cables. He even reversed the cable direction and observed a different result.

Just curious, have you tried a PC and/or power conditioner or regenerator with video? If so, what were your video source(s) and components?
