Omega Concerto SP Speaker Cable (Pair)

The Omega Concerto
For those who demand a “live” musical experience without compromise, TARA Labs introduces the Omega Concerto. Born from years of intensive development by the TARA Labs Design Team (TLDT), this addition to the legendary Evolution Series bridges the gap between high-fidelity audio and the raw energy of a live performance.

The Omega Concerto is engineered for the audiophile who seeks a holographic soundstage, pin-point imaging, and a level of musicality that makes the walls of the listening room disappear.

The Engineering of Silence and Sound
The foundation of the Omega Concerto is TARA Labs' proprietary SA-OF8N copper conductor—Super-Annealed, Mono-Crystal, Oxygen-Free, and 99.999999% pure. This isn’t just cable; it’s a precision instrument.

• Massive Conductor Count: A staggering 432 individual RSC Gen 2 conductors per pair.
• Quad-Run Architecture: Each channel features separate positive and negative runs (108 conductors per run) to eliminate interference and maximize signal integrity.
• Aero-PE GMI Dielectric: Every single conductor is housed in a specially treated aerospace-grade material, chosen for its absolute neutrality and minimal audible signature.
• Air-Tube Technology: Conductors are helixed around a large Teflon inner air tube, utilizing a specific “Lay Pattern” angle to optimize capacitance and high-frequency extension.

Where Performance Becomes Presence
The Omega Concerto doesn’t just play music; it stages it. The result of this meticulous construction is a cable that offers:

• Unrivaled Clarity: Crisp, airy highs and a neutral, coherent midrange that never fatigues the ear.
• Dynamic Authority: Deep, powerful bass response coupled with a “full-scale attack” of spaciousness and resolution.
• Holographic Imaging: Exceptional ambient retrieval and reverberation that places musicians exactly where they belong in the soundstage.

Special Performance (SP) Model
For audio systems requiring additional inductance to reach their peak potential, TARA Labs offers the Omega Concerto SP model. This “Special Performance” edition is fine-tuned to provide the same legendary resolution while meeting the specific electrical demands of specialized high-end components.

The TARA Labs Difference: When you listen to the Omega Concerto, you aren’t just hearing a recording; you are experiencing the music as it was meant to be—dynamic, live, and breathtakingly real.

The Heritage of Quality
Every TARA Labs cable is handmade to order in Oregon, USA. Master technicians hand-polish each conductor to ensure an optimal interface. TARA Labs believe in their craftsmanship so much that every cable comes with a Lifetime Guarantee.

The SP series of Tara Labs cables Extreme Audio Systems and Extreme Performance Cables are designed with Low Inductance specifically for speakers or amplifiers which require additional inductance in a speaker cable.

In addition to inductance, TARA Labs SP model speaker cables are also designed for audio systems that are inherently bright or strident in their sound. They offer a controlled bandwidth by being more forgiving with glare or stridency.

At TARA Labs, the major design goal for speaker cables is to reduce the inductance in the cable. However, there are some high-end amplifiers that need to 'see' some level of inductance (L) in the speaker cable. When the low damping factor of certain amplifiers is connected with (ultra-low inductance) TARA Labs speaker cables, the output of some high-end loudspeakers becomes audibly variable at different frequencies.

The phenomenon is readily apparent, heard as bass that is soft and low in amplitude, sometimes together with high frequencies that are too smooth or rolled-off. Basically, the resistance in the loudspeaker cable should be ultra-low, and the inductance (L) in the cable needs to be low but sufficient to provide a load to certain amplifiers. There is no ideal value for (L). It varies from system to system, just as impedance varies with frequency in most loudspeakers.

The loudspeaker cables carry much higher signal voltage and current into a non-linear impedance (the loudspeaker) ... so the reactive load of the loudspeaker can be difficult for some amplifiers to drive... and the all-important damping factor of the amplifier changes from amplifier to amplifier.
