Shunyata Research Theta NR Power Cable

The Theta NR is the replacement power cable for the popular Delta NR, Shunyata have managed to improve on the performance of the Delta, but at the same time they have also managed to dramatically reduce the price, Delta NR was £1500 and Theta NR is £1100

The entry level Gamma NR sits below the Theta NR, then above it we have Alpha X NR, Sigma X NR and Omega QR

Theta power cable feature VTX™ (hollow core) and VTX-Ag™ (pure silver centre) conductors, both with an outer layer of ultra-pure OFE copper for enhanced performance. Finally, all Theta cables are conditioned for 4-days using Shunyata Research’s advanced Kinetic Phase Inversion Process™ (KPIP v2™), which conditions conductor metals at a molecular level. Theta Series cables are terminated with Shunyata’s custom-designed connectors and cold-soldered terminals. These custom-designed attributes elevate Theta Series performance far beyond expectation, regardless of cost.

Theta cables disappear, allowing the system to express sudden dynamic shifts in timing and frequency extension with effortlessness and nuance. A loom of Theta cables allows a complex system of electronics and speakers to speak with a single coherent voice.

Like their more affordable Gamma Series counterpart, Theta cables imbue the system with an unassailable sense of coherence, as if everything is in focus, without distortion or hard transients. There is an absence of perceived noise, allowing spectral and textural subtlety to come to the fore. Unlike common copper cables, Theta Series cables deliver explosive dynamics and pitch perfect frequency extension, even when compared to far more expensive cables. Theta’s larger gauge VTX™ conductors add weight, dimensionality and an expansive, room-filling sound-stage.
