When the Shunyata Everest came out I wanted to compare it to the Transparent and I also like the form factor of the Everest. While I did prefer the Everest this had nothing to do with brightness. My amp is separate from my other audio components that reside in a rack on the side wall, so I never had the intention to plug my amp into the Power Isolator. Transparent also recommended that the best results may be achieved by plugging the amp directly into the wall.

All of my interconnect, speaker and most power cables were Transparent Reference or above at the time.
