  Copperhead
  Shunyata > Power Cables

Shunyata Research's Copperhead power cord is a massive gauge version of the less expensive power cords in Shunyata Research's Shielded Series power cords. The Copperhead can be used to great effect on Hydras and other power hungry components such as amplifiers and powered subs. It's dual layer shield also makes it the perfect complement to all manner of video electronics such as projectors, processors and video screens.

Application Suggestions:
The Copperhead is designed to dramatically enhance the performance of all types of audio or video electronics. Because of its large gauge conductors and 30-amp current rating, the Copperhead is an ideal mate to the Diamondback when used with high-current devices such as amplifiers and power distribution products; as well as powered speakers, subwoofers, projectors, tuners and pre-amps.

Shunyata's Design Approach

As the name suggests, Shunyata Research's approach to the design and manufacture of high-performance power-distribution and cable systems is entirely unique. Caelin Gabriel, founder and former NSA scientist, has introduced innovative technologies that favor a purist approach to "materials science" designs.

Shunyata Research products avoid the current and signal altering effects of conventional filtering and "networks" in favor of proprietary and patented technologies that reduce noise while preserving signal linearity and phase coherence.

Rather than relying on marketing jargon and empty performance claims, Shunyata Research displays and explains every custom-designed element and specialized process used in the development of its products. You can read about, visualize and experience what has drawn the world's foremost recording studios, electronics manufacturers and reviewers to use Shunyata Research products as their power-line and signal cable references.
