OMEGA X POWER CABLES (XC)
THE ULTIMATE IN POWER CORD PERFORMANCE
Caelin Gabriel was given a challenge to design the ultimate power cord without regard to costs, construction intricacies or time constraints. It would have to exceed ALL current levels of performance and achieve an unprecedented degree of clarity and dynamic expression.
The OMEGA-X power cords are the ultimate examples of more than a quarter-century of dedicated research and product refinement. Literally hundreds of tests, man hours, alternative materials and innovative construction techniques have combined to deliver products proven to posses incomparable performance.
Shunyata Research power cables have proven to deliver an elite level of performance within the world's finest recording studios, mastering labs and life-preserving medical systems.
OMEGA-X QR
The Omega-X QR is the barometer of what can be achieved when the entirety of one individual’s passion, intelligence and creativity is focused on the creation of a singularly iconic product.
The Omega-X QR contains not one, but two patented QRBB elements. The addition of the second QRBB dramatically improves the performance of the world's finest amplifiers, preamplifiers, as well as the finest analog and digital source components.
Omega-X QR is no longer just for amplifiers; it is designed to form a sympathetic bond with all classes of components. Once connected, the Omega X QR creates an island of calm within the sea of noise that surrounds electronics systems.
OMEGA-X XC
The Omega-X XC is purpose-built as the ultimate high-current companion power cord for the world’s finest power distributors. With massive four-gauge conductors, VTX-Ag geometry, and proprietary CopperConn connectors, the XC minimizes resistance and maximizes instantaneous current capability. Perhaps the most notable updates for the Omega-X XC are the TAPc modules and KPIP v2, which work together to dramatically reduce noise and enhance signal fidelity from the wall to any high-current power distributor. Taken together, the design elements within the Omega-X XC make it the most advanced product of its kind. There is no better power cable for Shunyata Research’s reference level power distributors.
EASE OF USE
Don't be fooled by the Omega-X power cord’s large gauge conductors and sizable diameters. Both models are relatively lightweight and bend easily to route around or through tight bends or corners. No power cord this massive has the combination of the Omega-X power cord’s ability to navigate in and around systems with ease.
Omega-X power cords unlock performance to a degree that has startled even the most seasoned industry veteran. Omega-X cables break through all performance barriers to deliver the full potential locked within the world’s most exotic music systems.
GROUNDBREAKING TECHNOLOGY
 | TAP (Transverse Axial Polarizer) is a patent-pending technology developed by Shunyata Research to enhance the performance of its reference signal cables. The evolution of this technology has led to the creation of TAPc, a groundbreaking advancement that significantly reduces the size of the modules, enabling their application across a broader range of cables, including power cords, interconnects, digital cables and speaker cables. The sonic results of TAPc technology include a profound drop in perceived noise floor, effortlessly portrayed dynamics, and an exceptional rendering of timing and coherency. These benefits are unique to TAPc, setting it apart from any competing product or technology. Even to an untrained ear, the effects of TAPc are immediately apparent and consistently repeatable across various components and systems. Essentially, the TAPc modules act as force multipliers, elevating the listening experience to levels many would not have thought possible. |
 | The QR/BB™ is a patented device which dramatically enhances the perception of dynamic impact and timing when connected to amplifiers or other high-current electronics. The QR/BB™ is unique in that it provides a local reserve of energy, or Coulomb charge, that mitigates the inductive reactance of the AC power line without using coils, transformers or capacitors. The QR/BB™ acts as an instantaneous energy reserve when placed in-line with an AC power supply. — Patent Number: US 10,031,536 — |
 | Gen3 NR Perhaps no technology has been more thoroughly researched, measured and third-party tested than Shunyata Research’s power line noise reduction technology. Gen2 NR technology, as used in the Gamma and Theta power cord lines, has been proven effective in heart surgery labs across the U.S. and Europe. Countless iconic recording engineers, mastering studios and musicians have provided vivid accounts supporting the efficacy of Shunyata Research’s NR power cords. The Gen3 NR circuit, as used in the reference tier power cords, improves upon the sonic performance of the Gen2 circuit. Transient speed, transparency and purity are all significantly improved along with an improvement in micro-dynamics. The new NR circuit is also more compatible across a broader spectrum of electronic component types; including preamplifiers and power amplifiers. Even amplifiers operating in pure Class A will realize a significant benefit when using our Gen3 NR equipped power cables. |
 | KPIP v2™ Shunyata Research’s proprietary Kinetic Phase Inversion Process includes four days of continuous KPIP v2™ processing which refines conductor metals at a molecular level. This dramatically reduces burn-in time and significantly improves sonic performance, delivering a relaxed and life-like presentation. When compared to the original process, KPIP v2™ represents a dramatic performance upgrade on par with a component-level upgrade. |
 | Shunyata’s VTX-Ag cables are uniquely constructed with both an inner, center conductor made of pure silver and an outer concentric ring conductor made of pure copper. It’s made using the finest fluorocarbon insulation to minimize dielectric absorption and re-radiation which translates to an improvement in resolution and clarity. VTX-Ag delivers the speed and clarity of silver and the midrange warmth and three dimensional power in the lower octaves of copper without imparting any of the negatives associated with either metal. – The best qualities of silver and copper combined |
 | Many audiophile grade connectors are made from brass or bronze. While some may get a plating of silver, gold or rhodium, the majority of the current is carried by the contact’s base-metal. CopperCONN® connectors contain pure copper contacts which have a much higher conductivity than brass. The difference in performance is clearly audible. |
 | Fluorocarbon dielectrics are usually only found in wire used in the aerospace industry, satellites and only the most expensive audiophile cabling. It has special electrical characteristics; very low dielectric absorption, high dielectric strength and exceptional heat resistance. When used in audio and power cables is reduces the perception of dynamic compression and it improves sonic low-level resolution and clarity. Crystal clear transient detail. |
