Shunyata Omega QR-s Power Cable 

Shunyata Research’s Caelin Gabriel was given a challenge.  Create a power cord for Shunyata Research power conditioners that allows the conditioner to achieve its absolute maximum performance.  Remove any and all constraints regarding construction time and difficulty and ignore cost limitations to produce the ultimate power cord. 

The Omega QR-s is a legitimate power conditioner in a cable.  The patented QR/BB™ technology that drives Shunyata Research’s reference power conditioners is now available in a flexible cable that can be plugged directly into the wall socket or into a power condition.  No intermediate chassis or boxes needed or the requisite extra power cable; fewer connections, more floor, and rack space freed up.  The QR/BB™ technology improves dynamics while the integrated NR technology reduces power line noise.

The Omega QR-s is a slightly downsized version of the Omega QR.  The smaller diameter tube, lighter weight, and greater flexibility make it ideal for use with source equipment.  The ideal application for the Omega QR-s would be DACs, CD players, preamplifiers, digital processors, integrated amplifiers, or other source equipment. The Omega QR-s can power these electronics direct to a wall outlet or through one of our power distributors like the Everest or Denali.

For high power amplifiers, above 200 watt/ch, use the Omega QR.

Features


The Omega XC represents the ultimate power cord by which all other power products must be judged in terms of verifiable science and performance.

The Omega XC is a barometer of what is possible when the innovation and resources of one great company’s science and materials technologies are brought to bear, with a singular goal of absolute superiority.




DYNAMIC TRANSIENT CURRENT DELIVERY

Every facet of the Omega XC power cord has been refined to deliver measurably superior 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 optimize the design, specification and construction of parts and materials to ensure maximum current delivery performance.  Each part, conductor, noise circuit and material inside the Omega XC 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 maximizing peak-current delivery is unmatched.



VTX-Ag CONDUCTORS

The Omega XC’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.  The Omega XC’s 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 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.


TRUE CARBON FIBER HEAD SHELLS

Shunyata Research’s own true carbon fiber headshell designs come in three attractive colors/finishes.  These rigid housings reduce micro-vibration-induced distortion contributing to the Omega’s stunningly silent performance



KPIP™ PROCESSING

Omega XC power cords are treated with Shunyata Research’s proprietary Kinetic Phase Inversion Process.

Four days of continuous KPIP™ processing dramatically reduces burn-in time and significantly improves sonic performance, delivering a relaxed and life-like presentation.



APPLICATIONS

The Omega XC is the ultimate performance cable for Shunyata Research power conditioners. Its massive 4 gauge VTX-Ag conductors are the largest conductors used in a power cord in Shunyata Research’s 20-year history.

The ideal application for the Omega XC would be to power the magnificent EVEREST 8000 power conditioner.



DF-SS ELEVATORS INCLUDED

Vibration control is an essential element in extracting the best performance from Omega XC.  Therefore, the Omega XC is supplied with Shunyata Research’s exclusive cable suspension elevators.

DF-SS Cable Elevators

Longer cables include more DF-SS elevators:
(1) additional DF-SS 3-pack per 2 meters


LIMITED LIFETIME WARRANTY

The unparalleled craftsmanship and build quality of Shunyata Research products is backed by a Limited Lifetime Warranty.  The new Omega Series power cords are prime examples of our commitment to superb performance backed by exceptional quality, warranty, and customer support.
