Increase the scale, authority, size, and dimensionality of your music playback to truly jaw-dropping levels with the Shunyata Denali-X power distributor. Devised to exceed even the most rigid audiophile expectations, this seemingly magical six-outlet component betters your listening experience by ensuring you hear more information, nuance, detail, presence, immediacy, clarity, & tonality. And not just by small degrees.
Able to deliver unlimited power – enough to supply power to entire systems, including high-demand amplifiers – Denali-X uses a non-limiting 20-Amp hydraulic electromagnetic breaker and massive, eight-gauge ArNi internal wiring. Cutting-edge noise-reduction abilities come via patented, increased-efficiency Noise Isolation Chambers ( NIC v2 ) that reduce frequency interference as well as the patented QR/BB, which eliminates the dynamic compression that results when amplifiers are connected to a power conditioner and improves the dynamic range when the amp is connected to a Denali-X. High-grade CCI (component-to-component) filters developed for medical-imaging applications isolate one component from another, giving you deep-black backgrounds and extremely wide soundstages.
But that's just part of the story behind this U.S.A.-made breakthrough with six isolated zones that eliminate cross-talk between the outlets as well as a clean, screwless exterior replete with an all-aluminum chassis and brushed aluminum faceplate. Improved over its award-winning predecessor, Denali D6000/S v2, with Transverse Axial Polarizer ( TAPc ) and Power Harp technologies, Denali-X helps create refined, noise-free listening experiences and reference-grade timing and coherency. Read more about the technologies below, both of which assist Denali-X in allowing everything from whisper-soft nuances to bone-crushing crescendos to come across with peak authority.
Measuring 4.4" x 17" x 10" ( H x W x D ), the 17.5-pound Denali-X is encased all-aluminum chassis treated with vibration-dampening panels and a vibration-absorbing system outfitted on every outlet. The SSF-38 footers, CCI filters, NICs, and QR/BB are all potted with vibration-dampening compound. Shunyata's perfectionist-minded build carries over to other parts. A cable cradle support system solves any connection problems associated with heavy high-end cables by completely supporting the cable's weight and preventing it from pulling away ( or drooping ) from the outlet. Proprietary CopperCONN outlets yield the highest level of conductivity and least electrical resistance, while patented ArNi conductors and cryogenic treated components further guarantee premium performance. To top it off, each Denali-X is treated with a proprietary KPIP ( Kinetic Phase Inversion Process ) to significantly reduce burn-in time and augment the sonics.
If you've invested in a high-end system, you need clean and continuous power to reap the rewards you deserve. The incredible Denali-X serves this role and more.
NOTE: Shunyata Denali-X distributors do not come with power cords. Shunyata believes you should be free to select the power cable which best matches your system, so they offer a wide variety of high-current 20Amp terminated cords to match any system and budget requirement. Please give us a call for a recommendation or choose from the wide variety of Shunyata high-current cables we offer.
TAPc ( Transverse Axial Polarizer ) Technology
TAPc 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. 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.
Power Harp Technology
Originally developed to address current resonances in speaker cables, Power Harp is adapted for power distribution in Denali-X. The 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.
Patented QR/BB Device
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 energy reserve when placed in-line with an AC power supply.
Trademarked NIC Device
The NIC ( Noise Isolation Chamber ) is a patented Shunyata Research device that reduces high-frequency 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.
Trademarked CCI Filters
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.
