ALTAIRA delivers everything they promise and MORE sonically and musically!
Agreed!
It’s good to see a video that allows the designer to talk about the product he designed. There was a lot of technical talk here which is something you don’t see in most audiophile videos, but Caelin explained at in a way that most people can understand. I hope you have more video’s like this.
Agreed!
Outstanding video guys! Can’t wait to demo it.
Thank you!
Excellent video guys!!!
Thank you!
This was very interesting and well explained.
The question I thought ought to have been asked was, how is Altaira grounding different to Everest grounding? Caelin mentioned Altaira ground gets connected to Everest ground, but didn't explain why, or why Everest can't do the job that Altaira does.
Power supply health and grounding health is not a sexy topic vs amps or loudspeakers but they sure do significant impact to the sound quality.
Is the filtering for each ground line just a ferrite core? Or is it something more elaborate than that?
I just read Robert Harley’s review in TAS, then found this post. Can anyone here please explain the comment the creator made about why the difference in voltage reference within different components matters across interconnects?
Mike....well said! In other words...
RTFM !!!
Great video, very helpful. I'm almost ready to pull the trigger. One comment Caelin makes, at about 50:08 that has my attention. He's discussing connecting terminal #7 to a Shunyata Power distributor, which will have a chassis grounding terminal. He phrases it such that "or another power distributor that has a grounding terminal...and if it doesn't-phhhht. It's a problem". He didn't elaborate further after that. If our power distributor does not have a grounding terminal, are we to use a chassis screw as on any other component (as long as it measures less than 1 ohm between the IEC ground pin and the chosen screw)? I have a PS Audio P12 power regenerator in my system, and as far as I can tell it does not have a dedicated chassis grounding screw.
Thank you for your thoughts and feedback Peter. Asking about a scenario like this is a great question and one that I spoke to Richard at Shunyata about. In a scenario like this they recommend using their AC ground adapter, picture attached below. This allows for customers using their Altaira grounding system, without a Shunyata power distributor, to ground the Altaira back to the homes primary ground.
@@highendaudio Thanks for the reply! Unfortunately, I don't see the picture you mentioned. As I look at the Shunyata site, I see numerous accessories and adapters, but so far not exactly the one you're referring to. Do you have a part number or model number for it?
All my gear is plugged into Denali 6000s. Plan on earth ground to said unit
I can not locate the data base on their web site. Does it exist?
... yep. Certified, lol. Who Certified you 2 guys. The sales department ?
Tell the Salesman get an old iron pole pound it in the ground tack wire to gear all for $35. No way. , go buy his stuff for $ 5000 .it's a pretty box. Com on Man
Good idea
You are offering a solution to a non existent problem. All you are doing is creating more ground loops. You talk about grounding in studios but forgot to mention that any reputable studio will be running balanced interconnects to equipment with balanced connections on it. There is a good reason for that and that it essentially eliminates the need for an equipotential ground between equipments !!
The reason that audiophiles don't understand grounding is that they have never read AES48 recommended practise. Pin 1 of an XLR does not connect to signal ground like this guy says, it should be connected to chassis ground. Separate unbalanced equipment needs a signal common between them, but that should be inside the chassis ground system that forms an overall Faraday cage. These boxes show a lack of understanding of the physics involved.
