Shunyata Research

Hi Grant,

Shunyata’s modus operandi based on sound engineering principles, informed by listening, and backed up by measurement has always appealed to me, as have the results: all my signal and power cables at this stage are Shunyata.

I’m really looking forward to trying a Denali next. Everything that it aims to do – cleaning up power without limiting current, and minimizing inter-component interference – makes absolute sense. But I was hoping you could also help me better understand how Shunyata’s philosophy determines what it doesn’t do – e.g., active regulation, or even the sort of waveform shape regeneration that other manufacturers tout as essential. Is it the case that you all believe that those goals are far less important than noise elimination, maybe because you think most downstream components handle regulation and shape distortion sufficiently well? Or is it the case that solving these problems comes at an unacceptable price, such as restricting current flow/headroom, or actual product cost?

Thanks!

Vlad
