RISING ABOVE

 

What began as a design platform intended to press theoretical limits quickly evolved into a series of products that defy existing laws of conventional performance in the cable industry. 

When applied as a system, Omega-X signal cables deliver a weightless coherence and thunderous authority that rise above all previous expectations for the cable category at any price. Their transformative performance is owed to advanced applications of Shunyata Research's proprietary TAPc technology. This technology eliminates a form of EMI field distortion left completely unaddressed in traditional cable designs.  

Omega-X cables break through all performance barriers to deliver the full potential locked within the world’s most exotic music systems.

GROUNDBREAKING TECHNOLOGY

icon-tapc-200px

TAPc (Transverse Axial Polarizer) is a patent-pending technology that couples to the electromagnetic fields surrounding electrical or signal conductors. TAPc behaves like a polarizer, passively reducing electromagnetic distortion that presents as a type of glare or compression on sound or images.

Ohno conductors are created through a specialized casting process that forms wire with a continuous, unbroken crystalline structure. Valued for their exceptional purity and grain-free composition, Ohno conductors help preserve clarity, resolution, and sonic refinement.

Shunyata Research’s proprietary Kinetic Phase Inversion Process (KPIP v2™) refines conductor and terminal metals at the atomic level. This dramatically reduces burn-in time and significantly improves sonic performance, delivering a relaxed and life-like presentation.

Platinum-Plated connectors deliver exceptional fidelity and tonal purity, offering a smooth, natural presentation with enhanced resolution. Fine detail emerges effortlessly, without added edge or glare, while clarity, contrast, and dimensionality are preserved across the full dynamic range of the system.

Fluorocarbon dielectrics have unique electrical characteristics: very low dielectric absorption, high dielectric strength and exceptional heat resistance. In Shunyata Research cables it reduces the perception of dynamic compression and it improves low-level resolution and clarity.

ΞTRON® is Shunyata Research’s patented technology for reducing dielectric absorption and re-radiation in signal transmission. A dual-path conductor and electric-field compensation circuit prevent the insulation from developing a charge, preserving timing accuracy and signal integrity over long runs. ~ US Patent: US8912436B2 ~
