1.75 meter , US plug, C15 connector.I have one as main input from wall to distributor. This one is spare one. Suitable for power amp cable as well.
Timing doesn’t matter much here because this Alpha V2 XC is a discontinued, no-longer-current Shunyata cable, so the key question is condition and originality rather than whether a replacement is around the corner. At A$2,600, the ask sits right on the median of recent AUD comps and well below the A$3,664 75th percentile, so this reads as fair rather than ambitious.
What makes it worth a look is that this is one of Shunyata’s better-regarded power cables: it’s known for lowering noise and giving gear a cleaner, more open, more dynamic presentation without sounding flashy. If the termination matches your component and the cable is clean, complete, and unmolested, this is a sensible buy for someone chasing a genuine upgrade. I’d only push for a closer inspection if the listing is vague on length, plugs, or provenance, since at this price you want the right connector and a tidy, original example.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Shunyata Research emerged in 1997 from the vision of founder Caelin Gabriel, a former U.S. military researcher specializing in ultra-sensitive data acquisition systems. Based near Seattle, Washington, the company traces its roots to Gabriel's passion for hi-fi, sparked during his deployment in Germany, where he began exploring signal and power line interference to enhance music reproduction. This blend of scientific rigor and personal drive propelled Shunyata from modest origins into a global force in high-performance electrical systems.
The brand focuses exclusively on advanced cabling and power solutions, pioneering technologies that minimize noise and optimize current delivery. Renowned for aftermarket power cords—now legendary in design—Shunyata also produces speaker cables like the Omega series, alongside conditioners and distribution systems. These custom-engineered products serve not just audiophiles but recording studios, film production, and medical environments, where measurable reductions in distortion are paramount.
Positioned firmly in the high-end niche, Shunyata commands respect among discerning buyers for its patented innovations, backed by over two decades of research. Gabriel holds more than ten patents, earning endorsements from mastering engineers, heart surgeons, and elite studios worldwide. For the serious hi-fi enthusiast, Shunyata represents uncompromised purity in signal transmission, elevating systems to reference levels.
