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.

Is this the same "friend" who is the attorney in Vermont who was going to sue PPT in New Hampshire? Or, is it the same "friend" who gave you all of the SR fuses to try that didn’t work out for you??

I would be interested in wolf’s answer to this question. I have to admit being a Vermonter, and an New Englander, having lived many years in the smog, traffic mess  of southern CA, I could not even contemplate moving back to that lifestyle.

Tell it like it is Wolfie.





Regarding the SR cable risers at 4 for $400, I hope you have two foot cables to each speaker or your gonna need at least a couple of packs of them.  
One must take into account that there is a slight and constant bend in the cable where it is hung onto the cable risers.  Have four or five of these "static" bends per speaker cable and you have created series of resistances which when compounded does not allow the signal to pass completely unimpeded.

The obvious solution is balloons, string and helium.  Inflate the balloons with helium, and tie one end of the string to the balloon and the other around the cable.  The secret sauce here is that as the inflated balloons lose their buoyancy, at different loss rates, it creates constantly changing cable angles where attached to the string, and this multiplicity of angulation of the four or five balloons results in a smoother flowing of the audio signal.

Flatlanders, nervous nellies, and Debbie downers who have not tried this in your own house, with your own gear, you have no basis for any negative commentary.
