Shunyata Everest 8000 is a reference current distributor/filter intended for high-end Hi-Fi systems, with the associated high-current Omega XC power cable for connection to the wall network. This set provides stable, quiet and instant power delivery for amplifiers, digital and analogue sources.
Technical characteristics
Type: passive current distributor/filter (reference class)
Outputs: 8 sockets distributed in several isolation zones (special high-current branches for amplifiers)
Protection and interruption: low-noise electromagnetic switch; multi-layer non-sacrificial surge and EMI/RFI protection
Noise reduction: wideband CCI/NIC technology (common and differential noise reduction)
Power Delivery: QR/BB circuit for instantaneous response without dynamic compression (suitable for amplifiers)
Grounding: CGS (star-ground) chassis scheme for lower hum level
Omega XC cable: high-current feed (16–20 A), large conductor cross-section, shielded; Shunyata CopperCONN contacts; geometry with low R/L/C parameters for minimal voltage drop
Sound characteristics It objectively brings a lower noise floor, better black background, greater micro/macro dynamics and a more stable stereo scene. The bass is tighter and more contoured, the midrange is cleaner, and the treble is smoother without graininess. Improved instrument separation and localization without feeling tight or compressed.
Compatibility and application Ideal for integrated and stereo amplifiers, monoblocks, DAC/preamps, phono stages and turntables. Two high-current branches are recommended for amplifiers, while the remaining zones are optimal for sources. The Omega XC is intended as the main cable from the wall to the Everest 8000 for maximum performance.
Condition and maintenance Second-hand, perfectly preserved. Without modifications, all connections and protective circuits function properly. No servicing required; ready for immediate use in 230 V/50 Hz systems.
