Shunyata Research

Recently bought 3 delta NR cables.  1 from wall socket to my venom UK6 (bought from a seller on devialetchat) & 2 to my devialets.

Does the NR do much when connected to a Venom UK6? Doesn't the UK6 already have CCI built in?

The UK6 includes a number of different noise reduction technologies including CCI, however these can't eliminate noise completely (-24dB noise attenuation at 100 kHz - 30 MHz). Shunyata Research advocates an approach of distributed power conditioning whereby noise is tackled at multiple points including at the point of inception, the PSU itself. The NR filters in the power cords reduce noise by 6-12dB (depending on frequency), so this all adds to the overall picture.

Correction! The NR filters in the power cables now give over 15dB of noise attenuation. I will be posting a video soon showing the effect of a Venom NR power cable on a patient interface unit in a hospital. It’s pretty dramatic stuff!
