The Grand Master Evolution - 8ft/2.4m



The new Evolution speaker cable is a stunning achievement, boasting the greatest current-carrying capability of any speaker cable in the world, together with the High Frequency extension and linearity of a 32-gauge conductor. The Evolution Speaker Cable is an all air-dielectric design with 288 Rectangular Solid Core ® conductors per channel.

Importantly, the gauge size for each channel is far greater than any speaker cable ever made or ever conceived in history. The gauge size is not 10, or 6, or 4, or even 0. The gage size for an Evolution Speaker Cable is 000, that's an area of 85,000 square millimeters per channel.

• BSM (with 1/4"or 5/16" Spades or Bananas)
• Gauge size is 000 = an area of 85 Square mm per channel
• SA-OF8N® copper.
• Each channel comprised of 288 Rectangular Solid Core ® conductors per channel
• Aero-PE® GMI™ dielectric.
• Separate positive and negative conductor run for each channel.
• Helixed Rectangular Solid Core® conductors and air-tube technology
• Gauge size is 000 = an area of 85 Square mm per channel
• TARA Labs "C" hook revolutionary new termination
• Spectacular power and clarity. Absolutely neutral and coherent.
• Superb resolution of micro-detail and ambient information.
• Incredible dynamic contrasts & vivid imagery
• Holographic soundstage & superb resolution of micro-details
• Excellent imaging & absolute coherent and neutral
• Holographic soundstage & superb resolution of micro-details
This is the new Omega Evolution speaker cable's,though Tara Lab's still makes the original Omega Gold speaker cable's, this is the replacement that is second in model line-up, while the Omega Gold is now third in the current model line up, The Omega™ Evolution - 8ft/2.4m

The Omega Evolution has now become one of TARA Labs ultimate speaker cables. The Omega Evolution is just one step below the Grandmaster Evolution speaker cables. The RSC conductors are insulated with a fine layer of aerospace polyethylene, a very neutral material with almost no audible effect.

The Omega Evolution delivers lifelike, almost holographic sound, pin-point imaging and clear resolution of fine detail with extreme ease. What you will hear is an accurate harmonic structure extending upwards with the finest and most delicate of high frequencies. This will be contrasted with a vanishingly low noise floor. The reproduction of the recorded space can only be described as holographic. The qualities of a reverberation and ambient retrieval are simply astonishing. The Omega Evolution has a level of performance that is beyond comparison to any other speaker cable in the world with the obvious exception of the Grandmaster Evolution.

"TARA Labs Zero Evolution: $18,000/1m
The Zero Evolution is an all-new, physically flexible, easier to manage air-dielectric interconnect than the original Zero with†non-insulated rectangular solid-core conductors. Because neither end of The Zero Evolution's shield is attached to ground, TARA employs the Floating Ground Station, a heavy, black box containing Ceralex, a combination of ceramic materials and metallic compounds that absorbs RFI and EMI. Switching from the original Zero to the new Evolution Zero, MF's system benefited yet further from an enormous addition of lushness, texture, and warmth, along with major extensions of air, detail, and transparency, But—"I've heard nothing like it," he declares, adding "a genuine breakthrough, though hideously expensive. The TARA Labs Evolution Zero had a fast, clean, open overall sound, with airy highs and tight bass. The Evolution upgrade adds the rich, textured midrange, while continuing to produce faster attacks, longer sustains, and deeper decays, said Michael Fremer ." (Vol.29 No.12, Zero;Vol.34 No.6 WWW, Zero Gold; Vol.36 No.11, Zero Evolution)".
Hi Audiocrack, Is the tripoint Emperor a new model that juct came out?, I am sorry, I just noticed your post from 2-7-15,what are you useing the Tara Lab's Zero Gold on?, This is my current Interconnect, mind me aking if you could list your system here, BTW, I believe would be impressive, Thankyou Audiocrack.


what is the

cryogenic treatment

process









I am not a metallurgist, I am an enthusiast having fun with cables. This is the best explanation that I've been told. In layman's terms it would be the opposite of heat treating. The process alters the molecular structure of the metals/wires/cables and allows the current/signal to flow more smoothly, evenly with less resistance. Resulting in some amazing changes in high end electronics.

What is the process?
The total process takes 72 hours, you have a 24 hour cooling down period dropping the temperature gradually until finally reaching -320 degrees. The temperature is held there for 24 hours, then starts the 24 hour period of bringing it back to room temperature. The 24 hour cooling/warming period is to reduce damage from expansion/contract.

What is the end result?
The most important factor or variable would be the quality of your piece of electronics, the higher the quality the greater the change. In audio you will first hear a noticeable difference in the bass, it will be lower and more pronounced. Then you will realize that your noticing things you hadn't heard before. The mids and highs are more vivid, you'll notice better clarity and imaging. The overall sound stage is larger, more defined with greater depth. In a video application the differences are more subtle. I'm finding that the purists notice the most difference. A 60Hz TV will show little to no difference. A 120Hz TV will show a difference but might not be noticed by the average enthusiast. But a 240Hz TV or high end projector will show a definite change. Sharper image, smoother motion, brighter colors, greater depth, and in a 3D application you become part of the movie. Again, the higher the quality, the greater the change.
