The Omega speaker cables represent the most scientifically advanced cable design in Shunyata Research's history. More than a quarter century of research and development have produced a masterpiece in both design and performance. The Omega system represents a showcase for Caelin Gabriel’s patented science and innovative design acumen. The Omega speaker cables transcend expectations, delivering a truly immersive, three-dimensional listening experience.
In our test, Alan Sircom commented, “With your system fully Omega-fettled, there’s a profound change to the sound of your system. There are no spotlights or highlights, lumps, bumps, or impediments. There’s just a lot of music being played. It’s like the electronic hash that sits behind your recordings just got pushed aside. Not attenuated or kicked into a different frequency band. It’s like that hash got given its marching orders.” In addition, he felt that “Each aspect of the frequency response sounded ‘right’ in absolute terms and relative to the overall performance.” And that “Overall detail, coherence across the frequency range and the soundstage’s size, shape and solidity were all in the very top league.” -Issue 224
The Möbius Cable Suspension System is an integral part of the performance of the Omega speaker cables. It provides the most advanced cable isolation and support solution on the market. The Möbius features five polymer bands that sandwich the cable on all sides. These energy-absorbing bands have the unique ability to dissipate vibrational energy that travels along the surface of the cable and through the floor. The Möbius renders a significant reduction in perceived noise and time smear, yielding improved focus, clarity, depth, and spatial information. Eight Möbius wheels are included with each Omega speaker cable pair. One additional Möbius is included for each additional half meter of additional length.
