Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good?
Hi Steve, I will be getting the Synergistic Research PowerCell 10SE with the Galileo MPC next month -- which includes their latest Precision Reference power cord. So I will wait a bit before posting a full report here. But I can report a change th... 
Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments?
Joeyboynj, thanks for the information. 
Tweaks for EMM CDSA SE ... ?
Rgs92, you're welcome. I am sure the X is a really major upgrade. Of course, it must include changes in the digital processing to achieve the 3D sonic effects that are being talked about. My point is that if you do the X upgrade AND buy an SR Powe...

Napolitana Volanta looks like she's already been consuming a lot of pasta -- looks like she needs a pair of good Horns and a power conditioner to cure her of what ails her sonically and otherwise. Maybe she'll bump into someone at a local audio de... 
Tweaks for EMM CDSA SE ... ?
Rgs92, you're welcome. IMHO doing both may be overkill since the upgrade and the SR are supposed to accomplish the same thing. I would be very interested in hearing if you do both how the sound sounds. You can A/B with and without the PowerCell. Y... 
Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments?
Joeyboynj, I found your 2 system pages but I could not find your comments on the sonic improvements. No problem.

If the bard is long-suffering I think it must be as a result of the failure of his long-promoted pandemic to materialize despite his best efforts -- not from being a closet audiophile. His efforts to induce disequilibrium in domestic bliss have be...

Rgs92, there is an Audiogon thread called "SR Tesla PowerCell or Dedicated Circuits ????" where people comment on the Hydra 8. You may be interested in having a look. 
Tweaks for EMM CDSA SE ... ?
Rgs92, thanks very much. Since the EMM X upgrade and the Synergistic Research PowerCell 10SE (that includes a new model Tesla Plex SE, a Precision Reference power cord with a 3-lead option and a standard MPC) both promise 3D sound reproduction I w... 
Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments?
Joeyboynj, hard to believe you are selling your PowerCell 10SE since you have commented positively on the improvement when the Galileo MPC was added. Are you upgrading? By the way, what sonic improvements did you notice with the Galileo added to t...

Guidocorona, thanks for clarifying this. I wondered what the fellow who saved us from the awful bird flu pandemic was doing on Audiogon -- and what he could possibly have against Totem Acoustic products.

Rgs92, raw silk is known as one of the best natural absorbers of unwanted frequencies because of its irregular fiber structure. If you dig a bit on the internet you will find people selling raw silk to put around speaker binding posts, etc. I have... 
Tweaks for EMM CDSA SE ... ?
Rgs92, I'm already using XLR -- I took Shahin's advice. I'm also using the Totem beaks in diamond configuration on top of the EMM and a silk-covered cushion under the EMM. Much more effective than the four expensive Harmonix Synergy Points on the ...

Rhyno, thanks for your suggestion but I'm not sure what you mean? Do you mean to replace the IEC receptacle on the EMM? If so, with what? 
Power conditioner for EMM CDSA ?
Anyone tried the Synergistic Research 10SE power conditioner? Any opinions would be greatly appreciated.
