The Shunyata Research DF-SS takes
the patented technology Shunyata
Designer Caelin Gabriel applied in
the original DFE and DFE v2, to an
elite performance level by adding
two important design innovations. In
addition to the patented
energy-field neutralization material
used in the original DFE, the DF-SS
incorporates two forms of vibration
isolation that quiets energy
transfer between the floor and any
cable product.
The most significant advance applied
to the DF-SS is the wide band cable
suspension bridge, designed to
support any cable, power or signal,
while dissipating vibrational energy
through the purposefully tensioned
polymer band. The second innovation
is the energy-absorbing granular
compound that fills the base of the
DF-SS. This compound formulation
absorbs floor borne energy that
would otherwise couple to the cable,
causing signal degradation.
These combined technologies define
the DF-SS as the most technically
advanced cable suspension system on
the market. To prove the DF-SS
efficacy, Shunyata will be
publishing Accelerometer test
results with the DF-SS, indicating
the level of isolation they provide
from floor borne vibration, common
to all sound system environments.
The difference in performance the
DarkField Suspension System renders
is dramatic and easy to appreciate
when applied to literally any
high-performance audio or video
system. When applied as a system,
the DF-SS renders a dramatic
reduction in perceived noise and
time smear, yielding improved
clarity, depth and spatial
information within any audio/video
system.

measurably reduces cable vibration
from the floor. Here is a graphic

without cable suspension (yellow),
and one with the DFSS cable
suspension system (green). An
accellerometer attached to each
cable shows vibration from the floor. |
