Hi Clyde2 @clyde2 

This is great to know. Thank you!

I was wondering whether the job was done or if there's more to be gained.  Sounds like a 30 day trial of an Altaira makes good sense. 

@ddrave44 I will only tell you the warning that I was given regarding Altaira; Don’t try unless you’re prepared to buy! You won’t want to send it back!  Good luck with everything and if it works half as well for you as it does for me, you’ll probably conclude it was money well spent. It’s incredible technology. 

garebear,

Ever get your Altaira unit? If so, what do you think of it?

Hello Ozzy ......yes I did a few months back. In short, I kept my amp and pre-amp on the TriPoint Thor Signature and placed my Esoteric CD player on the Shunyata Altaira. The reason I did that was that to my ears the Esoteric sounded much more open and ohhhhh gosh ; organic on the Shunyata than it did on the TriPoint. The TriPoint has such an analog sound that to me ... the system just fell into place. The Altaira is a wonderful product and if I never had the TriPoint grounding system and I never knew or could experience the difference, I would put the whole system on the Shunyata. Note : if your system sounds good right now ; do yourself a favor and look into a grounding system as it will or should, make a difference. Stay well.....  

Thanks, garebear for that info. I’m going to try to demo a Altaires unit.

I wonder what makes the TriPoint unit different? Do you think it’s the parts quality or is there some other tech?
