I bought a few of these. Time to start the break in process!

A few? That’s money equivalent to some people’s entire audio system [emoji3].

True true! Just plugged them into the dual mono powerbases of the MSB Select II. Great detail without any brightness so far.

What happened to the "red" plugs as show in the original post? Was that just a reflection? I thought that looked great not that the ones you show look bad at all.

Also. What about the previous photo showing The Qr “cylinder " ?

Was that a prototype ?

The recent cable doesn’t look anymore substantial than a sigma Nr.

Those cables were prototypes, JIm. If memory serves, the color of the carbon fiber plug-ends can be custom-ordered from a choice from 3 different colors, but I may be mistaken about that, so check with Shunyata Research on that to be sure.

The QR cylinder is one of three cylinders shwon in Mike's photos, but I don't know which one, not that that matters. And, no the cable isn't anymore substantial than a Sigma NR; that was one of the design objectives; its also very flexible.
 
They are available via order in Red, Black (what I have) and Grey (silver) carbon fiber.

Too late to include in Santa’s letter this year. :lol:

Look forward to your impressions Mike.
 
Ok, these cables are the real deal. On day three, these Shunyata Omega’s are fuller sounding, deeper and better bass, more musical.

The top end is beautifully extended and the bass, the bass, oh baby, the bass. These just seem to dig more bass detail out of the music.

They are definitely top top top tier. And damn, the NR REALLY works.
 
Assuming this cable is intended to connect a power amplifier directly to the wall socket. For about the same money, why wouldn't you just buy a Typhon QR and Sigma EF for that purpose?

Definitely an option!

I have a Denali 2000 on each of my amps. The problem with the Denali, or a Typhon QR, is each Denali requires 2 power cords. One from the wall to the Denali, and one from the Denali to the amp. These new power cords eliminate the need for the Denali, or Typhon, and one power cord. If the end result is the same, or better, sound then the reduced gear clutter makes it worth the price.

How much of the QR/BB tech is in the Omega? Is it actually more or better than what's in the Denali 2000?
