Standard length of cable is 1.75 metres.

CopperCONN™ CONNECTORS

Shunyata Research has developed its own line of CopperCONN™ connectors that feature solid copper contacts and true carbon-fiber head-shells (Alpha and Sigma models) that have anti-vibration qualities.

These connectors are not just beautiful; they functionally reduce micro-distortions due to the carbon fiber’s unique energy absorbing vibration reduction qualities.

DTCD™ DESIGN

Dynamic Instantaneous Current Delivery is critical to performance for high performance entertainment systems.

All elements in Reference NR & XC Series power cords, including the wires, contacts, dielectrics and junctions, are tested and optimized using Shunyata Research’s proprietary DTCD™ Analyzer. This optimization ensures outstanding low-frequency performance as well as dynamic contrasts akin to a live musical event.

More than any other design parameter, Shunyata Research’s ability to provide measurable dynamic instantaneous current is unparalleled.

VTX-AG CONDUCTORS

Reference NR & XC Series cables feature an advancement in conductor technology that combines the transient speed and definition of pure silver with the warmth, power, and body of pure copper. VTX-Ag has a core conductor of pure silver with an outer concentric conductor of high-purity OFE copper. VTX-Ag provides significant improvements in dynamics, timing precision, and low-level resolution while preserving the subtle tonal, textural, and timbral signatures that bring music to life.

KPIP™ ‘BLACKBIRD’ PROCESS

Reference NR & XC Series 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.
