New release - Shunyata Omega interconnects and speaker cables


Has anyone been able to demo the new Shunyata omega interconnects and/or speaker cables? 

 

Curious to know what the impressions are.

.......hopefully after the show we can get some feedback on these cables as I think from what I heard that Shunyata was going to be demonstrating them at the show. If anybody has heard them it would be nice to see a comment.  

Hello Searoll923 - I am glad that you started this thread on these cables because I was looking into them as well. It would appear that at this point as they were just released not all that long ago that very few have purchased them and or have even listened to them. I did speak with Richard a few weeks back who had informed me that Shunyata was coming out with these cables and he was very excited as would be expected about their sonic attributes. The cost however of these cables was '' up there '' ...... not surprising anymore.   

.......no responses as of this date which does surprise me and could possibly be a telling tale on where the audio world is right now. I hope somebody purchases or listens to these cables as I am still interested in them.  

I will be receiving my Shunyata XLR Omega interconnects today if Fed-Ex doesn't screw the delivery up and I will comment in a few weeks what I think of these cables. I have all Omega QR and QRs power cords currently in my system. There is one thing for sure ......I will never be able to afford the Omega Speaker cables.  

The Shunyata Omega XLR interconnects are something to behold. They are beautifully made and sonically they are very coherent from top to bottom. They are very revealing of your system and source material but not like say a Nordost Valhalla cable. I would be careful if your system is very revealing or do not want it to go that way. I am not saying that the Omega cables are strident but are true to the source. I will say that my Omega's replaced some very good Cardas Clear Beyond cables that I have owned for the past 5-6 years. The sound was like going from really good tubes ( Cardas ) to really good solid state ( Shunyata ) Just my opinion ......
