Shunyata Altaira Grounding Hub
Groundbreaking Approach to Noise Reduction
Designer Caelin Gabriel created the ALTAIRA to be the absolute state-of-the-art solution for controlling ground-plane noise in home entertainment and pro-audio systems.
The ALTAIRA is a centralized grounding system that eliminates inter-component ground-loops while reducing ground-plane noise that is known to cause audible humming, buzzing and other undesirable distortions. Electrical grounds are often contaminated with various types of electromagnetic interference, including radio, television, microwave, wifi and cell tower frequencies.
The ALTAIRA System uses patented technologies that significantly reduce these types of noise and distortion.
Authorised Retailer. Established 1987
Delivery normally within 24-48hrs (Subject to Stock).
7 Day Return Policy if item is defective on arrival.
Six Isolation Zones
ALTAIRA has six terminals that are each individually isolated from one another. Each terminal is designed to connect to a single component for best performance. Each zone and each component is therefore isolated from one another and from earth-ground common-mode noise.
Dedicated Earth-Ground Terminal (7th Terminal)
ALTAIRA should be connected to a true earth-ground for best results. All Shunyata power distributors provide a chassis ground terminal which makes an excellent method to establish a safe earth-ground connection. The Everest and Denali power distributor’s GP-NR system both provide an excellent earth-ground connection point. The 7th terminal may also be used to interconnect multiple ALTAIRA hubs. For instance, an ALTAIRA Signal Ground Hub can be connected to an ALTAIRA Chassis Ground Hub.
Completely Passive Design
The ALTAIRA does not require AC power or batteries. It operates without generating heat or noise of any kind.
No Hum – No Buzz – No Heat
Pure Copper Terminals
The ALTAIRA uses the finest pure OFHC copper terminals for best performance.
All Metal Construction
No cheap plastic cases here. The ALTAIRA is made from solid steel and aluminum, then powder-coated for a high quality finish that will withstand the test of time.
