Synergy is sexual attraction between strangers; oh, wait, that's chemistry! ;)
Frankly, I'm not terribly impressed by the definition of synergy as a fortuitous assemblage of gear. My definition of synergy is more stringent, that being components which have been voiced together. This demands there be a design/electronic basis for the superior performance of the components.
I write about this in some my reviews such as that of the Coda CS Amplifier (at Dagogo.com).
There seems in the OP to be the suggestion that cables are a solution versus system matching of components. That would be erroneous; one must pay attention to cables as well as component matching. Cables will either be a boon to the system - call them corrective devices if you wish - or deleterious to it, so choose wisely. :)
