‌‌ArNi^® wire was designed by Shunyata Research to be the finest quality wire available. It begins with the highest purity of copper and silver metals available, including Ohno (single crystal), PCOCC silver, and OFE C0101 conductors. Fluorocarbon dielectrics, usually only found in aerospace applications that have exceptional electrical characteristics including extremely low dielectric absorption, high dielectric strength, and superb heat resistance.  When used in digital wiring it significantly reduces transient energy storage and releases which affects phase noise performance.

— And finally, every cable undergoes our proprietary KPIP™ process.

VTX™ — Shunyata Research’s exclusive VTX™ conductors are formed into a virtual tube with the core of the conductor being hollow. This ensures that all the current flows through the outer periphery of the conductor which minimizes skin effects and random eddy currents.  VTX™ conductors are made with single crystal Ohno, certified OFE, or silver wire.

— Superior by design

TAP/CMODE Hybrid Module — For the purest signal possible, Shunyata Research has merged its patent-pending TAP technology and CMODE filter into a single hybrid module. The TAP polarizer reduces electromagnetic signal polarization while the CMODE filter reduces common-mode noise that travels across all conductors. The combination delivers analog-like ease and palpable background silence that closes the gap between digital and analog systems.

PMZ Connectors — Pulse timing is critical to digital transmission accuracy.  It is critical that a digital connector’s impedance precisely match the cables' characteristic impedance.  A mismatched connector will create signal reflections that increase digital jitter or phase noise. A 50-ohm cable requires a 50-ohm termination — not the commonly used 75-ohm connector. Shunyata Research is careful to ensure that every cable and connector are precisely matched for a seamless component-to-component connection.
