Synergistic Research Tesla x4 speaker cable

Thanks folks. These are cable co auditions. Hopefully, they will not require that kind of breakin time b/c I cant keep them that long.

Tvad - Is there any way for me to check on the mis wiring?

I will give someone a call because these are the only "odd ones" in the bunch.
Others are anaysis plus oval 9, mit shotgun s3 and jps auperconductor +.
The tesla sound like the soundfield is almost behind me. Very odd. Will check connections first and call them tomorrow. good idea. thx!

I will give it a try. I have red to red and black to black on both the amp end and the speaker end. If I understand yall correctly, i would swap at the speaker end and got red to black and black to red.
Can I damage anything doing this?

I did try playing with the phase button on my jrdg pre but it didnt fix the problem.

I called SR and they thought that there was a phase issue as well. I tried swapping 1 red for black and it seems to have fixed the problem.
Ozzy - I didnt even know that there was anything directional about the coupler. I didnt see any markings on it. How can I tell? I guess trial and error would work if nothing else.
Thanks all. Gonna let em settle for a few days. They sound much better now but still not up to par with the mit's to my ears...

I have the coupler on the amp end. thx! I thought that ozzy was saying that the coupler and the cables had a dedicated "Left" and "Right" as well.

Gonna also try the SR Accelerator and the PAD advance.

Ok, I think I get it ozzy. It isn't that the two connectors that come off of the plug and connect to the amp end of the cables are specific, it is that the wall plug must be right side up.
Right?

Thanks ozzy. I see what you were saying now. Funny how complicated a speaker cable can be.

The cable co. emailed me on the mini coupler too. they also said that it needs to be plugged to the wall right side up.

I really think that the problem that I was having is that one of the colored wraps on one of the cables got switched. Because making a red to black swap on one of the cables on one of the ends cleared up the problem.

I will try the ohmmeter test and that should answer the questions once and for all.
