Dramatically Upgrade Your Amplifier Performance and Get Enhanced Dynamics, Expressiveness, and Headroom with the Shunyata Typhon-X Power Distributor: Features TAPc Technology and Twist-Lock Connectors 

The ultimate high-current, performance-oriented power distributor in the Shunyata Research lineup, Typhon-X takes your high-current amplifier performance to unparalleled levels. The implementation of Shunyata's TAPc technology in the device's internal circuit removes palpable degrees of electromagnetic noise, producing an unmistakable improvement in the performance of amplifiers and other connected electronics. You'll notice that dynamics become more vivid, transient response more immediate, and spatial resolution more three-dimensional.

Featuring 30-amp capability and 30-amp twist-lock connectors that practically match the current-carrying ability of a hard-wired electrical connection that distinguish it from its acclaimed Typhon T2 predecessor, the souped-up Typhon-X is engineered to be used as a standalone two-outlet unit for amplifiers. You can also use it as a three-component power distributor as two standard outlets on the back can power two source devices (or a preamplifier) while the proprietary Amphenol outlet supplies high-current power to an amp. Or, you can connect it in-line to any other Shunyata power conditioner besides Everest. 

No matter how you employ, it this 17.5-pound component enhances the contrasts, expressiveness, imaging, headroom, timing, and three-dimensional presence of even the most current-hungry amps on the market. Played with Typhon-X in the chain, your music will sound more natural, unforced, clear, and free of distortion. The more demanding the current draw, the greater the difference Typhon-X makes in perceived slam, dynamics, and the sheer visceral sense of raw power. This is not a subtle upgrade.

Designed with Dynamic Transient Current Delivery analysis, Typhon-X touts advanced and patented technologies beyond TAPc — QR/BB modules that act as electric charge reservoirs, Noise Isolation Chambers that reduce high-frequency power-line noise, Component-to-Component Isolation filters that address noise generated by your electronic components — as well as monolithic construction that protects all of the circuits and wiring from humidity and oxidation (and defeats internal vibration). ArNi conductors formed into VTX tubes, KPIP processing, Shunyata’s Chassis Grounding System, and CopperCONN connectors further help turn Typhon-X into a beast. 

Featuring three isolation zones, over-current protection, and an eight-gauge ArNi VTX-Ag buss wiring system, the 4.4 x 17 x 10-inch (HWD) Typhon T30 comes housed in an all-aluminum chassis and sits on Shunyata SSF-38 footers. Quantitatively, Typhon-X is rated at >50dB noise reduction for input to output; >40dB for zone to zone. And you’ll never have to worry about heat, buzz, or hum — concepts foreign to Typhon-X, covered by a limited lifetime warranty.

Whether your system is large or small or in between, this breakthrough design will elevate every aspect of your listening experience. Call a Music Direct audio consultant for further details and explanation of how a Typhon-X can benefit your setup.

Please note: The proprietary Amphenol inlet connector and outlet connector require power cables specifically built for this application. To extract the performance potential from Typhon-X, a 30-amp AC line and connector are recommended. A standard 15-amp or 20-amp electrical line may also be used, which will naturally limit the maximum continuous current potential of Typhon-X to the power rating of the circuit.
