Shunyata Research Omega X XC Power Cable
The Omega X XC is Shunyata’s flagship power cable from the XC series of cables. This range is different to the NR series in that is eschews the noise reduction technology used in the NR cable and instead puts focus on current delivery, making the XC series the obvious choice to use on a Shunyata power conditioner. Clean power and consistent and immediate delivery of current as as when it is required is the key factor when observing this range of cables.
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.
The ideal application for the Omega X XC would be to power the EVEREST 8000 or Typhon power conditioner.
Dynamic Transient Current Delivery
DTCD™ Analysis is a technique that measures instantaneous current through low impedance electrical conductors and contacts. Shunyata Research uses it to optimise the design, specification and construction of parts and materials to ensure maximum current delivery performance. Each part, conductor, noise circuit and material allows for maximum throughput of instantaneous current.
Listeners will experience earth-shaking low-frequency performance from even the highest-current amplifiers as well as dynamic contrasts unheard of outside of a live event. More than any other design parameter, Shunyata Research’s skill in eliminating resistance and maximising peak-current delivery is unmatched.
VTX-Ag Conductors
Shunyata’s VTX-Ag conductors are the product of a 25-year design progression steeped in credible science and definitive measurement.
VTX-Ag conductors use an outer tube geometry of the purest form of copper, intended to bring out the purest tone and timbres of recorded instruments and voice. This VTX outer core of pure copper surrounds an inner core of the purest form of silver. This inner Ag core demonstrably improves macro-dynamics and creates an incredible three dimensional weight and timing in the lower octaves.
CopperCONN™ Connectors
CopperCONN’s™ internal metals are culled from solid copper and use a high-tension spring-loaded contacts for vice-like grip. This contributes to a measurable improvement in DTCD™ performance and a correspondingly obvious difference in audible performance.
CopperCONN™ connectors deliver measurably lower-resistance connections that will unlock the performance of any component and system.
KPIP V2™ Processing
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.
