New Synergistic Product: Tuning Discs


I was lucky enough to be asked to try out a prototype of a new Synergistic Research product. For now, I think they are calling it a Tuning disc.

What it looks like is a small wafer (smaller than a dime and is very thin). They are either in gold or purple tops and are attached using some tacking substance. I placed 2 on top of my Shunyata Sigma V2 interconnects.

I wasn’t expecting much but whoa, did these things work! First, I tried the purple on my interconnects and boy did the soundstage widen with lots of air.

Then I tried the gold discs and though the sound stage shrunk perhaps a little but the naturalness of the music was fantastic!

 

Hard to believe that these things work so well, I am really impressed.

Four to a box. Would you place all four on a pair of cables,input and output? Or two pairs of cables,input or output?  
 

let’s try that question again. 

Thanks for the response @ozzy.  They sound very interesting.   I’m a firm believer in everything matters. 

Four to a box. Would you place all four on a pair of cables,input and output? Or two pairs of cables,input or output?  I also am shocked at how many folks here tried a prototype product and didn’t care for them. Oh wait, that’s right,they really haven’t tried them,just interjecting an opinion.  I was always intrigued in tweaks,and wondered if they would really work. I recently experimented with a contract enhancer. I was blown away by the effectiveness.   People may think that something is silly,or crazy. However,if you haven’t tried it, in my book,you lose credibility from that point forward. Just my measly two cents. 

So,let me get this straight.  People that have never used or tried a product,are arguing with someone that has,about the validity of said product. Is this the gist of it?? 

 So, heroin is being compared to audio tweaks?  I’ve never seen a parent lose their child to tuning disks. But,I will freely admit that I haven’t seen everything.  I’d also say that the comparison, is highly off the mark.
