GROUNDBREAKING
TECHNOLOGY
 |
|
TAP (Transverse Axial Polarizer) is a patent-pending technology developed by Shunyata Research to enhance the performance of its reference signal cables. The evolution of this technology has led to the creation of TAPc, a groundbreaking advancement that significantly reduces the size of the modules, enabling their application across a broader range of products, including power distributors, power cords, interconnects, digital cables and speaker cables.
The sonic results of TAPc technology include a profound drop in perceived noise floor, effortlessly portrayed dynamics, and an exceptional rendering of timing and coherency. These benefits are unique to TAPc, setting it apart from any competing product or technology. Even to an untrained ear, the effects of TAPc are immediately apparent and consistently repeatable across various components and systems. Essentially, the TAPc modules act as force multipliers, elevating the listening experience to levels many would not have thought possible.

POWER HARP
technology, originally
developed to address
current resonances in
speaker cables, has now
been adapted for power
distribution in the
Everest-X. Through
extensive research,
Caelin Gabriel
identified the presence
of current drift and
audio-frequency current
resonances within power
delivery systems, much
like standing wave modes
in room acoustics. In
the Everest-X, the HARP
module functions as a
current-mode diffraction
device, disrupting these
resonances to enhance
resolution, coherence,
and dynamic stability
across connected
components. By
mitigating these power
system artifacts, HARP
technology helps create
a more refined, noise
free listening
experience, allowing the
full potential of a
system to be realized. |

The QR/BB™ is
a
patented
device
which
dramatically
enhances
the
perception
of
dynamic
impact
and
timing
when
connected
to
amplifiers
or
other
high-current
electronics.
The
QR/BB™
is
unique
in
that
it
provides
a
local
reserve
of
energy,
or
Coulomb
charge,
that
mitigates
the
inductive
reactance
of
the
AC
power
line
without
using
coils,
transformers
or
capacitors.
The
QR/BB™
acts
as
an
instantaneous

reserve
when
placed
in-line
with
an

KPIP v2™
Shunyata Research’s
proprietary Kinetic
Phase Inversion Process
includes four days of
continuous KPIP v2™
processing which refines
conductor metals at a
molecular level. This
dramatically reduces
burn-in time and
significantly improves
sonic performance,
delivering a relaxed and
life-like presentation.
When compared to the
original process, KPIP
v2™ represents a
dramatic performance
upgrade on par with a
component-level upgrade. |

The NIC™ (Noise
Isolation
Chamber)
is a
patented
Shunyata
Research
device
that
reduces
high

power
line
noise.
It
employs
a
ferroelectric
substance
that
actually
absorbs
high
frequency
noise
without
any
of
the
reactive
negatives
associated
with
transformers
and
large
capacitors
as
used
in
conventional
power
conditioners.

Many
audiophile grade
connectors are made from
brass or bronze. While
some may get a plating
of silver, gold or
rhodium, the majority of
the current is carried
by the contact’s
base-metal. CopperCONN®
connectors contain pure
copper contacts which
have a much higher
conductivity than brass.
The difference in
performance is clearly
audible. |

Common-mode
noise is
different than
differential noise and
is much more difficult
to measure and eliminate.
For the purest signal
possible, Shunyata
Research has developed a
CMode
filter that effectively
reduces common-mode
noise without
introducing the sonic
compression effects
associated with
conventional filters. It
reduces high-frequency
noise distortion while
delivering an analog
ease and palpable
background silence that
closes the gap between
digital and analog
systems. |

CCI™
filters have the unique
ability to reduce
component-generated
power line noise without
inhibiting DTCD® (dynamic
transient current
delivery). This unique
filter element prevents
power line noise from
one component
contaminating the other
adjacent electronic
components. Shunyata
Research’s CCI™ filter
modules consist of
proprietary multi-stage
filters that reduce
power supply-generated
noise without the use of
heavy transformers,
coils or large
capacitors. |

It
is
used
to
optimize
the
design
of
electrical

and
materials,
ensuring
