Limitless Delivery, Superb Noise Reduction, and Reference Performance: Shunyata Hydra Denali D6000/S v2 Power Conditioner Has Six Isolation Zones of Isolation, Comes with Sigma-X XC Power Cable
Enhanced with reference-caliber DTCD (Dynamic Transient Current Delivery) peak-current performance derived from medical/scientific firm Clear Image Scientific, the Shunyata Hydra Denali D6000/S v2 power conditioner represents the state-of-the-art in power capability, technology, and design. Every aspect of the six-outlet, six-zone Hydra Denali D6000/S v2 is made to better perfect your listening experience by ensuring you hear more information, nuance, detail, presence, immediacy, clarity, and tonality. And with the supplied Sigma-X XC power cable included in this bundle, you'll have the reference connection you need.
Able to deliver unlimited power – enough to supply power to entire systems, including high-demand amplifiers – D6000/S v2 uses a non-limiting 20-Amp hydraulic electromagnetic breaker and massive, 8-gauge 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 patent-pending QR/BB, which eliminates the dynamic compression that results when amplifiers are connected to a power conditioner and momentously improves the dynamic range when the amp is connected to a Denali. High-grade CCI (component-to-component) filters developed for medical-imaging applications isolate one component from another, giving you even blacker backgrounds and deeper, wider 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, screw-less exterior replete with an all-aluminum chassis and brushed aluminum faceplate.
Created to eliminate the noise, pollution, and resistance that negatively impact listening, the successor toThe Absolute Sound Product of the Year Award-winning D6000/S boasts an all-aluminum chassis treated with vibration-dampening panels and a vibration-absorbing system outfitted on every single outlet. The SSF-38 footers, CCI filters, NICs, and QR/BB are all potted with vibration-dampening compound. Shunyata's perfectionist-minded build carries into D6000/S v2's other internal parts. Exclusive to Denali, 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. Shunyata's proprietary CopperCONN outlets yield the highest level of conductivity and least electrical resistance, while patented ArNi conductors and cryogenic treated components further guarantee unsurpassed quality and premium performance. To top it off, each Denali D6000/S v2 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 D6000/S v2 serves this role and more.
"[It's] a true reference-level power conditioner without a true reference-level price. It gets my vote for Caelin Gabriel's best product yet."

Flagship Six-Outlet Power Distributor
Denali 6000/S v2 represents Shunyata Research's flagship six-outlet power distributor. With six independent zones of noise isolation, Denali 6000/S v2 can be used for an entire six component system that includes digital, analog, and high-current electronics. All six outlet zones are designed to provide both exceptional high-current performance and discretely filtered noise isolation that all but eliminates cross talk between components. There are no current restrictions of any kind within the Denali 6000/S v2. Instead, DTCD high-current performance is markedly improved across all outlets. From the industry's most demanding amps, to the most delicate, noise sensitive sources, Denali 6000/S v2 was developed to deliver performance previously unattainable anywhere near its price.
Features and Technologies
Denali 6000/S v2 features patented technologies and proprietary components unavailable in other products. Denali power distributors supply power to multiple components while reducing noise from the power line and intercepting component-to-component noise. It was designed using the DTCD analyzer. DTCD Analysis is a technique that measures instantaneous current through low-impedance electrical conductors and contacts. Shunyata Research uses it to optimize the design, specification and construction of parts and materials to ensure maximum current delivery performance=
Trademarked CCI Noise Reduction
Traditional power conditioners are designed to block incoming noise from outside the home but do not address the noise that is generated by the electronic components themselves. In fact, most conditioners reflect noise back into other components connected to the power conditioner. CCI (Component-to-Component Interference) is one of the most significant but often overlooked aspects to power system performance. The CCI filter consists of a proprietary multi-stage filter that reduces electrical noise and power supply generated interference.
Sigma-X XC Power Cable
The most radical progression in power-distributor power cord design since Shunyata Research's humble beginnings in 1998 delivers a watershed level of performance in the form of SIGMA-X XC power cables. SIGMA-X is second only to Shunyata Research's ultimate Omega power cord within the "Reference Series." Reference Series X cables represent the culmination of a 25-year commitment to produce the absolute finest-performing power cables available.
The dramatic performance SIGMA-X power cords impart is not subtle or amorphous. Indeed, it is revelatory and impossible to dismiss. When the recording calls for it, SIGMA-X power cords unleash a perfectly timed storm of three-dimensional weight and dynamic intensity, all without a hint of compression or artifice. Perhaps the signature attribute of the SIGMA-X performance is its rendering of an almost gravitational silence within voice, instruments, and images on a recording. There is a truth and precision to sound that is unmistakably free of distortion, leaving the listener captivated by an intense connection to their favorite music.
Three definable advances to Sigma-X power cord designs distinguish themselves within seconds after application, comparisons, and testing.
First, SIGMA-X features the all-new TAPc technology. TAP (transverse axial polarizer) is a patent-pending technology that Shunyata Research developed to improve the performance of its reference signal cables. TAPc technology is a radical advancement of the TAP technology that enables a significant reduction in the size of the modules – and for the first time allows this technology to be applied to power cords. The sonic results of TAPc include a cavernous drop in perceived noise floor, effortlessly portrayed dynamics, and a superb rendering of timing and coherency. The sonic benefits of the TAPc technology are quite simply unique and cannot be replicated by any competing product or technology. Even to an untrained ear, the effects of the TAPc are immediately apparent and repeatable across a variety of components and systems. In essence, the TAPc modules are force-multipliers that elevate the listening experience to a level many would not imagine possible.
Previously found only in the ultimate Omega power cords, the QR/BB module takes a wrecking ball to power cord performance expectations. SIGMA-X QR creates an island of pure silence when used with reference-quality amplifiers and source components. QR/BB technology essentially supercharges the component's power supply with reserve levels of DTCD energy. For the first time, this remarkable QR/BB technology is available at a much lower price in order to reach far wider audience.
Perhaps no technology has been more thoroughly researched, measured, and third-party-tested than Shunyata Research's power line noise-reduction technology. Gen-2 NR technology, as used in the Gamma and Theta power cord lines, has been proven effective in heart surgery labs across the U.S. and Europe. Countless iconic recording engineers, mastering studios, and musicians have provided vivid accounts supporting the efficacy of Shunyata Research's NR power cords. The Gen-3 NR circuit, as used in SIGMA-X power cords, improves upon the sonic performance of the Gen-2 circuit. Transient speed, transparency, and purity are all significantly improved along with an improvement in micro-dynamics. The new NR circuit is also more compatible across a broader spectrum of components, including preamplifiers and power amplifiers. Even amplifiers operating in pure Class A will realize a significant benefit when using the SIGMA-X NR power cable. (SIGMA-X XC power cords are now, primarily, recommended for use with power distributors.)
Shunyata Research's update to its proprietary KPIP processor represents a significant advancement to a process that permanently preconditions cables and power distributors. It dramatically enhances the sonic performance of the cables to which it is applied and significantly shortens the break-in cycle. All cables, conductors, connectors, and outlets undergo a multi-day conditioning process that is an integral aspect to the extraordinary performance of Shunyata Research products.
