The ALPHA-X Interconnect cables exemplify Shunyata Research’s commitment to delivering high-performance audio solutions that combine innovative technologies with superior craftsmanship. These cables, available in RCA, XLR, and phono configurations, are designed for audiophiles seeking exceptional sound quality and reliability.
TAP™ Technology: Shunyata’s Transverse Axial Polarizer technology addresses micro-phase distortions, delivering a clear, open, and expansive soundstage where every musical detail is beautifully rendered.
HARP™ Technology: By mitigating signal reflections and resonances, HARP technology enhances tonal fidelity and coherence, resulting in a smooth and natural listening experience.
VTX-Ag Conductors: Featuring a hybrid design of silver and copper in a coaxial geometry, the VTX-Ag conductors provide the speed and resolution of silver with the warmth and weight of copper, creating a well-balanced and dynamic sound.
KPIP™ Conditioning: The Kinetic Phase Inversion Process conditions the cables over several days, ensuring consistent and optimal performance from the outset.
Phono-Specific Engineering: The Alpha X phono cables are optimised for low-level signals, delivering pristine signal transfer and reducing noise, making them ideal for high-end vinyl playback.
Exceptional Craftsmanship: Constructed with premium materials and a sophisticated finish, the Alpha X Line cables are designed to endure while enhancing the aesthetics of any audio system.
