1 x 1m Digital (aes/ebu)XLR Sigma V2 cable from the Shunyata stable. As new only 12 months old, boxed. New price is £2800 for the current Sigma AES/EBU
Shunyata’s Sigma V2 sat in serious high-end cable territory when new, and at £1,595 this used asking price lands a touch above the £1,445 median but still comfortably inside the normal £1,159-£1,717 range. That makes it a fair ask rather than a bargain-bin score, and the excellent condition helps keep it on the right side of sensible.
This is a worthwhile buy if you already know what Shunyata does well: very low noise, strong clarity, and a convincing sense of speed and control, especially in a resolving digital front end. The upside here is getting a respected statement-level cable in clean condition without paying fresh stock money; just make sure the length, terminations, and any original packaging or proof of provenance suit your system, since that’s what will protect resale value most.
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.
