Hi, So I did some comparing of the Everest and the Denali V2 on Shunyata's website. I had pretty much thought they were very similar except the Everest has 8 outlets vs 6 for the Denali V2, and of course the style difference as to where you place them. I like getting easily to the back of the Denali vs down there with the Everest. (seems like an oxymoron?).
Anyway, almost ever feature is identical back and forth except a grounding feature:
The Everest has
GP-NR Noise Reduction
Significant amounts of noise exist on the ground plane of power lines. The ground wires can act as antennae, picking up electrical noise that can degrade the performance or operation of the electronic components. Ground Plane Noise Reduction (GP-NR™) is a proprietary technology developed by Shunyata Research to significantly reduce ground-plane noise; improving low-level resolution and clarity. The system includes one to four terminals, depending on the model, to connect as many as 12 audio components. We offer several models of CGC chassis grounding cables each made to your custom length and termination requirements.
The Denali V2 has:
CGS - Chassis Grounding System

Many Shunyata Research power conditioners have one to four terminals that allow all system component chassis to be interconnected to a common earth ground. We offer several models of CGC chassis grounding cables each made to your custom length and termination requirements.
I really think style and number of outlets should be a major deciding factor.
