Is There Some Problem With Shunyata's Everest Power Conditioner


I have been looking for a Shunyata power conditioner, and was thinking of going all the way and picking up an Everest, which is not only stupidly expensive but is the predictable darling of all reviewers, who gush about how wonderful this product is.  However, there are currently SIX Everests for sale on US Audiomart.  For a transformative and expensive product with seemingly universal acclaim, the fact that there six Everests for sale at the same time makes me wonder if maybe it is not so amazing and transformative and people are having buyer's remorse after picking one up.  Comments or insight?

In my experience, Shunyata conditioners require a loooong burn-in. I am using some ancient Hydra 4's which definitely have their uses, but I have heard new conditioners that sound like they need more burn-in.

I bought my old Hydra 4's (with the Trident Defense) used on Ebay about 5 years ago. Current prices are the same as when I bought mine - about $900.00. They can come in very handy especially when the local grid is sagging. They are also a handy place to park all your equipment in lightning storms when you don't want to turn your equipment off.
