PROVEN
POWER DISTRIBUTION REFERENCE
The Beta test results have been unanimous.
The Hydra V-Ray Version II is without peer in its ability to deliver
the finest detail, tonal nuance and dynamic contrasts that are the
essence of viewing and listening involvement. The Hydra V-Ray Version
II delivers unmistakable performance improvements over its predecessor,
and is intended to extract absolute reference caliber performance
from the finest recording, film, sound and music playback systems.
THE EVOLUTION OF AN INDUSTRY BENCHMARK
The original Hydra Model-8
enjoyed an unprecedented five year term as the industry's professional
reference, used by the most noteworthy film and recording studios,
electronics manufacturers and media critics. When the idea of a no-compromise
Hydra model was brought forward, several years of research determined
a number of areas where design refinements would yield dramatic results.
The original Hydra V-Ray was designed to deliver optimum visual and
sound resolution to the recording industry's finest film, recording
and playback systems. The Hydra V-Ray wasted little time in supplanting
the Hydra Model-8 as a designed-to-extremes Reference power-line
product.
IMPROVING UPON PERFECTION -- THE HYDRA V-RAY VERSION II
Improving upon what has long been widely regarded as the professionals'
reference for power distribution is a delicate equation. Adopting
the same systems design approach used to improve its other seminal
products, Shunyata Research fundamentally and systematically improved
the performance of the Hydra V-Ray by modifying core elements within
of the unit, including a new and superior ZrCa-2000 noise reduction
compound, a retooled buss system and a greatly improved SR-V2 filter
array.
The Hydra V-Ray Version II will deliver the full measure of
wall current to any complete high current demand system, and is intended
to be the reference used by those who use a single AC line for their
entire systems. The Shunyata Research designed SR-V2 filters eliminate
and isolate noise generated by the audio/video components themselves
and protect the components from power-line surges and transients
from just a few volts up to one-thousand volts!
The Hydra V-Ray Version
II retains all of the ground-breaking qualities of the Hydra Model-8
Version II including the improved SR-V2 filter technology. After
many years of research, capacitive filtering technology has been
taken to the extremes of integrated performance with the advent of
Shunyata Research’s own SR-V2 filter technology. The SR-V2
series-array within the V-Ray Version II is a proprietary 24-element
capacitive array designed and tuned to extend the Hydra philosophy
to its outer limits of performance.
The Hydra V-Ray Version II includes
a refined power-distribution buss system. Made from pure CDA-101
copper, The new buss system improves resolution by reducing eddy-currents
and waveform reflections that otherwise contaminate resolution of
fine detail.
The Hydra V-Ray Version II remains the ultimate expression
of Shunyata Research’s passion and unending search for musical
truth and perfection.
