The two additional dedicated 20 amp circuits for the amps go in tomorrow

The maple platform for the Everest is in the production queue at Country Moldings, and I should have it before the Everest arrives toward the middle to latter part of next week.

This is going to be a major system tear down and rebuild...last one hopefully.
I would recommend listerning to your system powered by Everest with it's stock footers first. You may find it sounds best with them. Shunyata put a fair bit of R&D into damping and mechanical grounding, and which footer material and design works best. The footer is a bespoke design and the polymer is proprietary to Shunyata; these are not off-the-shelf parts. Even the ground posts for the GPNR system uses bespoke ground posts made out of CopperCon. Shunyata doesn't overlook anything in their products, including the type and materials used for footers, connectors, lugs, etc., etc.
