.......guess not. I just put my order in and will comment later. Stay well and safe. 

.......Holydean and glad that you recognized that there is a difference between grounding for let's say ; electrical shock such as a lightning strike as opposed to component  grounding in which continuity continuity between components has been established. I have not received the Altaira as of this writing so not sure if there is a back up on these pieces.    

....just a follow up on my thread as it has been 2 1/2 weeks now since I placed my order and no Altria as of this writing. My dealer who is a good one by the way, has no shipment date as of last night. I do find it odd that Shunyata has a new product to offer that was also named  '' Product Of The Year '' by Absolute Sound and now it  would appear that they no finished products in the '' pile line '' to ship out to their customer's. That is just MY opinion on that comment but I do find it a little odd. It could be that the demand was bigger than their supply which I hope is the case which is good for Shunyata, but not for us the customer. My concern is that I have not been given any time frame for delivery, which is bothersome to me. More to follow and stay well .........   

 

...thats '' pipe line '' ......and not '' pile line '' ......I obviously can't type !   

.......I think that is why you need to use a ; Multimeter first to check to see if there is continuity between components so that these grounding units will actually do their proposed job.  

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.....
