Shunyata Research Reveals Sweeping Technology Upgrades Across Full Range of Reference Series Power Cords and Cables
Two Years of Development Culminates in Largest Product Release in Company History
Seattle, Washington (August 31, 2020) - On the heels of the lauded Everest Power Conditioner release early this summer comes a complete series upgrade from the world’s premier designer of power and audio cables. Shunyata Research’s Reference Series v2 launch offers a suite of improvements across the entire line of speaker cables, interconnects and digital cables, each providing a palpable and measurable enhancement to fidelity and the listening experience.
“Our approach is to educate and then exceed expectations,” says Richard Rogers, sales and customer liaison. In contrast to the many companies that provide little evidence of technical differentiation, Shunyata Research offers thorough documentation on the patented technology integrated in this evolution of the full product range. “These improvements are not abstract. They are the tangible results of years of research and development,” says Caelin Gabriel, founder and lead designer of Shunyata Research.
Reference Series v2 Speaker Cables feature new VTX-Ag conductors, constructed with concentric OFE copper surrounding a core of pure silver, offering greater dynamics, precision timing and three-dimensionality.
Reference Series v2 Interconnects have been upgraded to include Shunyata Research’s most advanced signal conductor technology. Delta v2 interconnects now include patented ΞTRON [emoji2400] technology while Alpha v2 and Sigma v2 boast single and dual TAP (Transverse Axial Polarizer) modules, respectively, effectively mitigating EMI field micro-distortion.
Reference Series v2 Digital Cables now include the CMODE module on both Sigma and Alpha v2 models, reducing common-mode noise without introducing sonic compression effects associated with conventional filters and ferrite beads. Delivering analog ease while reducing high-frequency noise distortion, this iteration closes the gap between digital and analog front-end performance.
With 22 years in business, dozens of critical awards and a fervent online fan base, Shunyata Research remains focused on innovation and pricing integrity. “Intelligent luxury from our Omega Series and accessible high performance value from the Venom line. We serve the best listeners in all categories,” Caelin says. “The v2 release offers unrivaled quality for any system.”
Shunyata Research provides patented and proprietary cable and power technology designed by Caelin Gabriel to eliminate the deleterious effect noise has on high resolution sound and visual imaging systems. Since 1997 Shunyata Research products have been designed and manufactured by hand and on site in Poulsbo, Washington.

Great news! i should have a set of the new Delta v2 speaker cables arriving shortly and I'm excited to hear how the upgrade will improve my system.
 
Congratulation to Caelin and the team at Shunyata Research.

I'm sure these new cables will just build upon the amazing range of products that Shunyata has released over the last 18 months or so, some which, including the Everest and Denali PDs, new NR and XC line of PCs and the new Ethernet and USB cables have resulted in the most significant and enjoyable gains I've made to my personal system in over a decade.

Shunyata is, as we say in motor racing, hitting on all cylinders, and...the motor is a V-12.
 
Our biggest and most extensive release of new products in our 22 year history! 34 all new audio cables including speaker cables, RCAs, XLRs, and Phono cables. 22 new digital cables including a new Delta USB cable.

New VTX-Ag conductors that combine the best qualities of silver and copper. The speed and transparency of silver with the warmth and power of copper.

This has been a huge effort and we are very proud of the results. Check out our website for the details.
 
Hi Mike,

do you happen to know when you receive the Alpha/Sigma speaker cables?

I‘m eager to hear if you prefer the Alpha or the AQ Thunderbirds with which you have plenty of experience and if the Sigmas are worth the substantial additional costs. I‘d say, if the Sigma is on par with the AQ Dragon that would make them excellent value and I might consider the upgrade!

Best regards

I’m not sure, but we have our orders in!

Still waiting on news of the mini-Everest or whatever it was that we were teased with recently.

I see there is a new CLOCK-50 v2 but I don't recall seeing mentioned what changes were made to those cables.
 
Congratulations!

Does the new V2 line also include Sigma AES-EBU cables?

Thank you.

Cheers,
Bernard
 
Three levels of cables: lowest to highest level.
-Delta v2
-Alpha v2
-Sigma v2

Types of cables that are new:

Speaker cables
Speaker cable jumpers
Interconnect RCA
Interconnect XLR
Interconnect Phono
Digital AES/EBU
Digital S/PDIF
Digital Clock-75
Digital Clock-50
Digital Delta USB
CGC/SGC Ground Cables

What hasn’t changed are Venom line cables.
And the Ethernet cables have not changed since they are relatively new and the Alpha USB and Sigma USB are not revised since they are also relatively new.
 
So exactly what is a transverse axial polarizer?
 
So exactly what is a transverse axial polarizer?

It's described in U. S. Patent Application #US2018/0183227.

From the background discussion, "In the simplest terms, the invention blocks longitudinally oriented EM waves while passing transversely oriented EM waves."
