Interesting now you think being an "SR Fuser" is derogatory, now that’s making progress for you to becoming an anti snake oil campaigner, maybe you can drag your messiah "geoffkiat" along and the other musketeers. Good for you miller.
Stynergistic Research FEQ X 4
Just finished outfitting my small listening space (3rd bedroom about 11' x 12') with Synergistic Research's HFT's (full spectrum using the standard HFT's, 2.0's and X's) and now have the FEQ x 4 in place behind my speakers. Since these devices deal with
ambient RFI and EMI fields I was just wondering if there's any such thing as a break in period or is what I hear at the beginning as good as I can expect? That's not to say I'm not impressed with what I'm hearing because the sound stage is now more holographic (3D) than I've ever heard it before. The noise floor has been lowered so I hear more. It lives up to the promise of making my speakers disappear. Just asking what others have experienced with their set up.

@georgehifi what part of this don't you understand? I also wrote: "and now have the FEQ x 4 in place behind my speakers." millercarbon responded: "FEQ I've not tried but it is electronic therefore Id expect improvement over the next few days and weeks." Maybe instead of looking for: https://media.giphy.com/media/io6DTnOLd4Czu/giphy.gif you should look for: https://highend-electronics.com/products/synergistic-research-feq-x4 or https://positive-feedback.com/reviews/hardware-reviews/synergistic-research-hft-feq/ |
Just finished outfitting my small listening space (3rd bedroom about 11’ x 12’) with Synergistic Research’s HFT’s (full spectrum using the standard HFT’s, 2.0’s and X’s Synergistic HFT, ECT and PHT all work perfectly right out of the box with no changes over time. https://media.giphy.com/media/io6DTnOLd4Czu/giphy.gif |
@millercarbon, thanks, I kind of thought electronic = break in. @georgehifi I like tweaking and I'm free to choose to spend my $$$ doing exactly that if I want. I'm happy with the components I own, but I like trying different tweaks to see if they improve my system's already very good SQ. SR gives their customers a chance to trial their merchandise. If anyone finds SR products do nothing for their system or degrades the sound, all they have to do is return it. If only every manufacturer would do that... |
You'll have to forgive George. He is NPC. You know, the Reddit term for Non Player Character, the 2D disposable figures that only repeat the same few tired lines over and over again, incapable of original thought of any kind. NPC. That's our George. Synergistic HFT, ECT and PHT all work perfectly right out of the box with no changes over time. FEQ I've not tried but it is electronic therefore I d expect improvement over the next few days and weeks. Which you will find out (or not) soon enough, regardless what anyone says. |
mewsickbuff Forget spending $$$$ on the voodoo snake oil, upgrade your systems components instead for something better, you’ll get a lot more value out of your dollar and your system’s sound will benefit for real. Some of their products have merit, the others are just snake oil https://www.google.com/search?q=%22Synergistic+Research%22+snake+oil&oq=%22Synergistic+Research%22+snake+oil&aqs=chrome..69i57j0.14891j0j8&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8 Cheers George |
