Synergistic Research Cable Risers?


  Recenty Synergistic  research  brought out some cable risers.  https://www.synergisticresearch.com/accessories/cable-risers/

  The audio press said they made one of the biggest differences when taken out of the system, then re installed back in. Does anyone have first hand experience with these ?

  That being said, they seem like quite a bit of money for what you get, however if they  work at improving the sound it would be worth it. I do use Synergistic products  which have made a definite improvement in sound but am quite skeptical on this product.

I listened to the risers at Rocky Mountain last year. Did it make a difference? Yes. With many tweaks it's often about the visceral feeling of the music, ie is it less fatiguing, do your shoulders drop when you listen, smooth out subtle edges/sharpness etc. vs.  changing more obvious attributes such as sound stage, imaging, etc.  These risers definitely changed the visceral feeling of the music.  I don't know if they are better or worse than using wood or ceramic risers because SR didn't do A/B with other risers, just with and without. Like everything your mileage will vary so if there price is right and you like the look of them , may be worth a 30 day try. Since these do have the proprietary  transducers, they will definitely sounds different than comparable risers without them. Also the difference wasnt night and day and you will want to add these to an already highly revealing/resolving system.
