Shunyata Research Theta Speaker Cables

Tri-wire cables are designed for speakers that feature three separate sets of input terminals—typically for the tweeter, midrange, and woofer drivers. These cables allow you to send a dedicated signal path to each section, which can improve clarity and separation in high-end speaker systems.

The VTX hollow-core design minimizes the skin effect, a phenomenon where high-frequency signals travel primarily on the outer surface of a conductor. By using a hollow core, the cable ensures a more uniform signal flow across the entire frequency range, resulting in a more natural and transparent sound.

No, you won't need an extensive break-in period. These cables undergo a 4-day KPIPv2 processing treatment at the factory, which refines the conductors at a molecular level so they perform at their best almost immediately out of the box.

They are not permanent. The Theta cables utilize the STIS v3 interchangeable terminal system, which allows you to switch between spade or banana connectors if your equipment requirements change in the future.

Ohno continuous-cast copper is processed to eliminate internal grain boundaries, which are microscopic barriers that can impede signal flow. This results in a cleaner, more fluid transmission of the audio signal, contributing to the cable's high level of transparency.
