SIGMA X Clock 50



PUSHING THE BOUNDARIES OF DIGITAL AUDIO


Inspired by collaboration with the industry's leading mastering engineers, Shunyata Research has created the most advanced digital cabling systems in our award-winning history. Sigma-X digital cables utilize patented and proprietary technologies to enhance signal fidelity, effectively reducing cable-induced jitter that can cause temporal displacement and phase distortion.


Engineered for those who demand unmatched clarity and resolution while maintaining a natural tonal presentation, Sigma-X cables achieve an ultra-low noise floor. This innovation unveils a sonic experience that captures even the most elusive details with remarkable precision.


PRECISION BEYOND EXPECTATION


Sigma-X digital cables go beyond the constraints of traditional digital playback, offering a musical experience that rivals the purity and depth of analog systems. They empower complex digital setups to reproduce sound as if it were directly sourced from an analog master tape.


For listeners in pursuit of ultimate realism, Sigma-X cables reveal the intricate details and nuances reminiscent of live musical performances.



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.

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 Research produces select cables using a ‌Precision Matched Z (‌‌PMZ) concept. This means that tolerances of the conductor surface, dielectric extrusion, and the precision of the braided shield are held to minute variances. To achieve these tight tolerances, the extrusion and braiding machines must be run at one-quarter speed during the manufacturing process. (Note: Z means impedance)
Common-mode noise is different than differential noise and is much more difficult to measure and eliminate. For the purest signal possible, Shunyata Research has developed a CMode filter that effectively reduces common-mode noise without introducing the sonic compression effects associated with conventional filters. It reduces high-frequency noise distortion while delivering an analog ease and palpable background silence that closes the gap between digital and analog systems.
