OMEGA HARP™ technology was created through Gabriel's research into current-drift and cable-induced signal reflections. HARP™ reduces audio frequency current transfer function resonances that can audibly smear transient response and obscure low level resolution. Gabriel's original design consisted of a single-element circuit that had proven to be quite effective at lowering perceived distortion while increasing resolution in Shunyata Research’s Alpha v2 and Sigma v2 speaker cable lines. Gabriel developed a far more complex four-element HARP™ circuit exclusively for the Omega speaker cable. The Omega “quad-HARP ” audibly reduces current resonance distortions throughout the audio frequency band. HARP™ technology, perhaps more than any previous innovation, is responsible for the Omega speaker cable’s vanishingly low noise floor, unparalleled low-level signal recovery and its stunning dynamic contrasts.

‌TAP (‌‌ Transverse Axial Polarizer ) is a patent-pending technology that reduces signal polarization distortion. A simple analogy for Omega TAP™ is how polarized sunglasses reduce glare on a sunny day. The application of TAP™ technology in the Omega speaker cables delivers a significant increase in resolution and a drop in the noise floor that simply cannot be achieved by another method or technology. The fact that this technology is passive and does not alter or impede current flow or signal transfer is in keeping with Gabriel's core design principle of preserving a pure and unfettered signal path.~ Patent Pending ~

KPIP™ ( ‌‌Kinetic Phase Inversion Process )

Shunyata Research uses its iconic KPIP™ process to pre-condition virtually all conductors and metals in its cables and power products. The KPIP™ process elevates the performance of all Shunyata Research products. Due to the massive size of the Omega conductors they undergo an unprecedented 8 days of processing, ensuring that they deliver optimal peak performance. A settling period 48-72 hours is all that is required to eliminate the effects of shipping.

Shunyata’s VTX-Ag cables are uniquely constructed with both an inner, center conductor made of pure silver and an outer concentric ring conductor made of pure copper. It’s made using the finest fluorocarbon insulation to minimize dielectric absorption and re-radiation which translates to an improvement in resolution and clarity. VTX-Ag delivers the speed and clarity of silver and the midrange warmth and three dimensional power in the lower octaves of copper without imparting any of the negatives associated with either metal. – The best qualities of silver and copper combined

Omega Terminations

Omega demands the ultimate in connector quality to realize its performance. The Omega speaker terminal’s base metal is made from the purest OFE copper and finished with a pure platinum plating. These terminals deliver a crystalline sonic clarity, propulsive bass extension and a rarely achieved naturally rich tone.

Möbius Cable Suspension System

The Möbius Cable Suspension System is an integral part to 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.
