DELTA-X Power Distributor

The Delta-X Power Distributor from Shunyata Research has been attracting serious attention since its launch earlier this year, with the latest reviews suggesting that it could be one of the most accomplished — and compellingly priced — products in the company's range. Below, we've gathered three of the most recent assessments from The Absolute Sound, The Audio Beat and Tracking Angle. Across the board, a remarkably consistent picture emerges: exceptional noise reduction, greater transparency and clarity, improved dynamics and a more open, effortless presentation — with reviewers repeatedly finding themselves hearing more of what their systems were capable of.

And perhaps the most remarkable thing about the Delta-X is its value. Rather than simply pushing Shunyata's reference technology into ever more expensive territory, the Delta-X borrows heavily from the company's flagship Everest-X while bringing that technology down to a dramatically lower price. At an introductory price of £5,000, it's less than a third of the Everest-X's price. In other words, this isn't a case of paying a premium for incremental gains: the Delta-X delivers a significant leap in performance while simultaneously offering a far more accessible route into Shunyata's latest technology.

“… brought about the single largest improvement in sound quality at one time I’ve ever experienced.”

“You are very likely to uncover a level of performance with the gear you already own that was previously unsuspected.”

“my system was now the quietest I’d ever experienced.”

- Andrew Quint, The Absolute Sound

“Shunyata Research’s Delta-X might be the best choice you can make. With it, you'll be able to hear all that your sources, electronics, and speakers have to offer.”

- Mark Blackmore, The Audio Beat

“I can say that the Delta-X distinctly outperforms the Denali 6000 V2 while offering greater affordability. Shunyata has substantially enhanced its performance-to-value ratio.”

- Ken Redmond, Tracking Angle

“At £5000, the performance and technology that Shunyata have incorporated into the Delta-X is incredibly strong. This is arguably the most aggressive price-to-performance product they have ever released.”

- David Baker, Audio Therapy

“It is a material improvement in the sound quality! Much more precise and punchier! A beautiful musicality.”

- Customer at Satori Hifi

“Delta-X's have been the icing on the cake for us. They make an instant difference, effectively adding even more resolution and depth to our whole signal chain whilst reducing the noise floor.”

- Phil Taylor, David Gilmour's Astoria Studio
