| Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments? Tbg,I have a complex front end in series -- isolation transformer > power regenerator > Bybee Stealth power conditioner. This approach has been discussed on other site forums. I do most everything in series. If you can find the right combina... | |
| Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments? Thankful,You stated about SR cables, "They produced a holographic sound that was cool but did not sound like live music (un-natural).". I agree. I own many SR products. There is a certain level of holography that they produce, but it is nowhere ne... | |
| The Problem with Synergistic Research Tbg,I also need to do a lot of testing. I have been using the two power conditioners in series because I bought the Bybee Stealth on the hunch that it would best the SR (and it has, since I took the SR out of the system and can listen to it alone.... | |
| Synergistic Research Comes Down to Earth Fplanner2000,You stated, "The point here is VALUE.". I agree completely. For instance, I think that the Steinmusic Harmonizer System is a much better bet for sound transformation than one SR power cord. Some of the SR power cords cost way more tha... | |
| Interconnects and power cables same manufacterer Taters,This is not true for my system. I mix and match and I use cables in series. The mainstay of my system are HiDiamond cables. | |
| Synergistic Research Comes Down to Earth Joeyboynj,I have not tried the Element line so I don't know how it stacks up. I run cables and my front end in series so my system is different from many others. All I know is that, from my experience, you cannot beat having an isolation transform... | |
| tube gear vs solid state...cable effectiveness Larri,You stated, "With solid state gear, there is MUCH less ability to alter the sound so one is often limited to wire substitution." The only thing less to alter is the tubes, IMO. | |
| 6Moons.com vs. Stereo Times Rx8man,The closest I have seen "with unbiased, to-the-point reviews" are Stereo Times reviews. The way I see it, The Absolute Sound reviews are thinly disguised advertisements; 6Moons.com reviews are ads; and Stereophile reviews often get caught u... | |
| HiDiamond Power cords... Radioheadokplayer,I have not heard of anyone selling them when they moved abroad. I have no idea why moving abroad would change the sound. I live abroad and have a full HiDiamond loom. The HiDiamonds have been replacing my Synergistic Research cab... | |
| The Problem with Synergistic Research My system has further evolved since my earlier posts. I have recently added a Bybee Stealth, an isolation transformer and a power regenerator -- all up front.While the SR Powercell sounded good on its own when I purchased it two years ago things h... | |
| Possibly controversial: Totem arro overrated? Slikric3000 and Aenergi,I an inclined not to comment, as well. Unbelievable imagining? I think not. That reads like ad copy. I used to own the Rainmakers and have auditioned the Arros many times. They are a nice little Totem speaker -- with emphas... | |
| New level of ridiculousness Viridian,I stand corrected. It's puffing copy. | |
| Hidiamond Cables, Do these reveal the live show? Hifial,I am running my HiDiamond cables with the Galileo speaker cells. Everything sounds great -- really great -- but since my system is so refined and resolving I am going to try to get away with selling off the speaker cells to finance cable an... | |
| HiDiamond Power cords... Bacardi,You could call Robert Neill at Worldwide Wholesales to see if they do custom work. But there is an easy way around that. You can patch in the Power 3 to the cord leading from the Powercell by using a burn-in adapter. That's what I do when ... | |
| New level of ridiculousness Viridian,You hit the old proverbial nail on the old proverbial head. It's like all the talk about "blacker than black" backgrounds -- the subject of a recent thread of mine. It's all ad copy. |
