A Memorable Meeting of Precision and Power: Shunyata Alpha-X Speaker Cables Lead to Dramatic Improvements in Quiet, Resolution, Clarity, and Detail
Packed with bleeding-edge developments devised to offer an extremely low noise floor, revealing microdynamics, and transparent resolution, Shunyata’s Alpha-X speaker cables will help your system sound quieter and more dynamic, detailed, and lifelike than you can likely imagine. They represent one of the latest developments by a company long renowned for its combination of patented engineering, hand-made U.S.A. build, go-to reliability, and natural musicality. Backed by a limited lifetime warranty, Alpha-X is available with a multitude of terminations and lengths to suit practically any need. (Select from our button menu above.)
Never resting in its pursuit of the ultimate in cable technology, Shunyata developed four new core processes in its Alpha-X speaker cables. The patent-pending TAPc (transverse axial polarizer) reduces the size of the prior HARP modules and improves efficiency. Acting much like a polarizing filter does in front of a camera, the HARP module breaks up current resonances in the signal as it travels down the cables — and dramatically contributes to the increased resolution these premium cables deliver.
The conductors in Alpha-X are a proprietary VTX-Ag design that utilize a center conductor of pure silver combined with an outer concentric ring of copper, which is kept separate with high quality fluorocarbon insulation. VTX-Ag provides the speed and clarity of silver with the warmth and three-dimensionality of copper — along with none of the drawbacks of either metal. Alpha-X also undergoes four days of KPIPv.2 processing (Kinetic Phase Inversion Process), which dramatically decreases cable burn-in time and offers a lifelike, electronic-free sound.
