I'm not knocking Shunyata just pointing out, at least in the case of the Denali, that it appears no "special" treatment was given to the grounding system. On the Triton V3 I will not comment as I've not seen a clear picture of it's internals. I was using the Ground Zero along with my Talos before I upgraded to the Denali. I however wouldn't say the Denali was better than the Ground Zero but at least equaled my best results with the GA. This was judged by listening to several recordings I use as "reference" when judging system changes/upgrades. I also used a db meter with all sources turned on (no music playing) with the volume turned up all the way and running trough the various sources watching the db meter as I did so. Not the most scientific method I know.
