The Ground Tail Adapters by Shunyata Research are precision-engineered to facilitate seamless integration of ALTAIRA grounding hubs with a wide range of audio and video components. Designed with flexibility and performance in mind, these adapters ensure optimal grounding connections while minimising noise and interference.

Key Features

VTX and VTX-Ag Conductors: Available with both high-performance VTX and silver-infused VTX-Ag conductors for tailored grounding solutions.
Versatile Connector Options: GroundTail Adapters are available in a wide range of configurations, including RCA, XLR-F, XLR-M, USB-A, USB-B, S/PDIF, BNC, and Ethernet.
STIS v3 Interchangeable Terminals: Equipped with Shunyata’s patented STIS v3 system, allowing for quick and easy terminal changes without soldering or factory assistance. Available terminals include banana plugs, and two sizes of combo spades (small: 4-6mm, large: 6-8mm), all made with a pure copper base metal and gold-plated for corrosion resistance.
Hand-Crafted Excellence: All Shunyata ground cables, including GroundTail Adapters, are hand-terminated by skilled craftsmen using the perfected cold-soldering technique.
Durable Shielding: Provides robust protection against electromagnetic and radio-frequency interference, ensuring consistent grounding performance.

HOW THE SHUNYATA GROUNDING SYSTEM WORKS:

Altaira Grounding HUBS:

Purpose: A complete, dedicated grounding system that serves as the foundation for reducing noise and enhancing performance across all connected components.
Key Features:
- Centralised, active grounding hub.
- Designed for entire audio systems, including analogue, digital, and power components.
- Utilises Shunyata's patented noise-reduction technologies to significantly lower the noise floor.
- Achieves optimal performance when paired with Shunyata’s Ground Tail Adapters, Multi-Tail Adapters, and the latest grounding cables (Omega-X, Sigma-X, Alpha-X, Theta, and Gamma).
Ideal For: Audiophiles seeking a comprehensive, active grounding solution for their systems.

Grounding Cables

Purpose: High-performance cables that connect audio components or adapters to the Altaira system for optimal grounding.
Key Features:
- Available in five performance tiers: Omega-X, Sigma-X, Alpha-X, Theta, and Gamma.
- Designed to reduce noise and improve system clarity with advanced Shunyata technologies.
- Constructed with premium materials for maximum durability and conductivity.
- Compatible with all Shunyata Ground Tail and Multi-Tail Adapters.
Ideal For: Audiophiles looking to customise their grounding setup based on system size, configuration, and performance requirements.

Ground Tail Adapters

Purpose: Short cables that provide direct grounding for individual components via Shunyata’s ground cables.
Key Features:
- Compatible with common signal connectors.
- Connect directly to the standard CGC/SGC base cables.
- Prevent obsolescence by eliminating the need for custom cables when systems evolve.
Ideal For: Users requiring tailored grounding for single components.

Multi-Tail Adapters

Purpose: A flexible solution for connecting multiple components to a single grounding point.
Key Features:
- Simplifies grounding setups for larger systems.
- Designed to complement Altaira and standard Ground Tail Adapters.
- Crafted for maximum conductivity and durability.
Ideal For: Systems with numerous components, providing a cost-efficient, clutter-free grounding approach.
