Friends,

Just a few notes on my experience with these cables. After using the Omega 75 ohms for two weeks, I think I have a handle on what these cables are doing so right. I started with the Apogee WydeEye on the Rossini master clock and have to say the sound was actually quite good. But the Omegas surprised me by the added qualities when installed.

I think it really comes down to three things:

1. I hear a bit more detail. Things seem more defined and lifelike. There is a sense of smoothness and ease in the best way possible.
2. Bass sounds fuller. Very natural and taut to my ears.
3. Soundstage placement of instruments seems more precise. The finger snaps on Buble’s The Best is Yet to Come have more snap and presence.

I am not completely sure if this is all due to more precise signal transfer allowing for more precise timing but that seems a plausible explanation.

These are not inexpensive but they really took the Rossini and clock to a whole new level for me. I am very impressed with the Omega line!

agree with you 100%. A week ago, I bought two omega clocke 75 cables to work in conjunction: dcs vivaldi clocke-dac, clocke-transport. Of course, I expected improvement, but the result surprised me, and this is also without warming up.

Those of us who have tried Shunyata's clock cables are already aware of how much of an improvement they can bring. My reaction to the Sigma v2 clock cable mirrors the impression the reviewer had in the following. Note that it also includes this quote from Grant from Shunyata: “By using our one-quarter speed extrusion process, the conductors in the digital cables are refined, reducing wire incongruities that would induce jitter-related distortions. The TAP and common-mode filters on the clock cables reduce another form of distortion, specifically related to the EMI field and high-frequency noise. Finally, the termination process we use reduces junction impedance.”
