Product Description
Shunyata's Sigma-X, along with the other X cables, represents the culmination of a 25-year quest to produce the absolute finest performing power cables available.
SIGMA-X QR
The SIGMA-X QR edition is the highest performing SIGMA-X model. It includes patented QR/BB technology descended from the ultimate OMEGA QR along with Gen3 NR noise reduction technology. It is particularly suited to use with high powered amplifiers but can be used for source and digital equipment when only the highest levels of performance are demanded.
SIGMA-X NR
The SIGMA-X NR delivers reference-grade performance and noise reduction on any and all electronics. Whether on amplifiers, sources or line-level components the SIGMA-X NR offers a massive component-upgrade level of performance.
SIGMA-X XC
SIGMA-X XC was designed specifically for use as a wall-connection power cord for use with Shunyata Research power distributors. Due to the extensive levels of filtering in Shunyata Research designed power distributors, NR filters are not needed at the wall connection. For use with other manufacturers power conditioners, the NR models will likely provide a performance benefit.
The SIGMA-X QR edition is the highest performing SIGMA-X model. It includes patented QR/BB technology descended from the ultimate OMEGA-X QR along with Gen3 NR noise reduction technology.
There are several definable advances to the Sigma-X power cord designs that will distinguish themselves within seconds after application, comparisons and testing.
The Sigma-X QR’s QR/BB tech has a profound effect on instantaneous current availability. The QR/BB™ module possesses the ability to act as an electric charge reservoir, meaning it stores and releases energy in a manner that improves a component’s access to instantaneous current. Dynamics are improved, reducing any sense of dynamic strain often heard from amplifiers that are connected with lesser power cables. The sonic result is a lifelike presentation of timing and dynamic contrasts in sound that cannot be replicated by any other means.
APPLICATIONS
It is particularly suited to use with high powered amplifiers but can be used for source and digital equipment when only the highest levels of performance are demanded.
