I read some many good stuff about these but then heard a few that felt it lost something? crazy how other hear it differently... got to love those 30 day trials!2 ch- Polk CRS+ * Vincent SA-31MK Preamp * Vincent Sp-331 Amp * Marantz SA8005 SACD * Project Xperience Classic TT * Sumiko Blue Point #2 MC cartridge

It is crazy how there are different experiences out there, albeit great swayed towards positive. I’m sure there might be some setups out there that don’t have synergy with the AQ power stuff, but for my experience they have done absolute wonders for all aspects of my particular setup. I’m keeping mine for as long as I have my system.

@JayCee any updates on yours now that you've had it in your system for a while?

So I've been following this thread and doing a little research on Shunyata. Lot's of raves here on CP and other sites. In fact, quite a lot of em all over.
What makes the Shunyata so different? Well they have a patent on what they call Ferroelectric Field Coupling device. Fascinating. This technology apparently absorbs RFI/EMI within the Ferroelectric material, at the atomic level, and converts it to heat! To quote an excerpt from the patent "absorbs noise" Wow. Fascinating to me.
The heart of a Shunyata device. Cylindrical tube filled with Ferroelectric material.
Here's a link to the patent:

Just posted my Core Power Technologies CPT review. Coincidentally, didn't mention it, but there's a similar product coming to market through Underwood Hifi called DEEP=CORE that addresses RFI/EMI. It's an add on that's supposed to work with any power conditioner and allows for user adjustable tailoring. Not advocating it but my hope is that it's everything touted to be. MUCHO problems bringing it to market over the past few years. Here's the link:

Original beta testers under the former owner literally fried their systems. I've documented the sketchy history in my review. As stated by other CP members, Walter Liederman is a stand up guy and the new owner. He's convinced this will work. I'm looking forward to the initial release and reviews.➀Speakers: Polk1.2tl's (Uber Mods) ➁Pre/Amp/DAC: PS Audio BHK Signature & 250, DirectStream ➂Cables/IC's: MIT S1Bi-Wire/S1 Balanced +Avel Lindberg 1000VA "Dreadnought" ➃Power Conditioner: PS Audio P15 Power Plant ➄Power Cords: Core Power Technologies Gold, DH Labs Power Plus DIY w/Neotech NC-P301 & P311ends ➅Streaming: Roon ROCK on wifi'd NUC, TP-Link WAP, & Uptone EtherREGEN, AfterDark, Emperor Double Crown Clock, Black Modernize LPS, PS Audio AirLens⟿Ω☯☥☮⟿🔊♩♪♫♬♩♪♫♬♩♪♫♬ -

What 20A power cable do you use with the Denali?
