Why don't gold based cable fans try Synergistic
I LOVE the SR Tesla active range and have no issue with Active cables- uncompromised natualness, air, and sound stageing. I started with Accelerators but landed on Apex and Precision Reference. That said SR has a gold based intercnnect- AU79. You ... 
Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments?
Flashunlock,What are your experiences with the ART system? Does it really do everything some people claim? I am a big Tesla surporter but find this treatment too good to be true (small, effective, controll of low bass, etc) but that's also what I ... 
what is the best power cable for the dCS Puccini
As others have indicated you should try before you buy. That said you need to audition a Synergistic Research Hologram D. Search on this site, lots of keys have clicked regarding it's benefits. 
Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments?
Splashkin I called SR on Friday and had a long conversation with Ted regarding the new cables. It seems there is not only a new flagship SC but also a new IC as well. They employ electromagnetic cells at either end of the cables (think mini powerc... 
Purist Audio vs. Synergistic Research ICs
Here is the link for the review(s) I was thinking about. The original review and its follow up. I've read quite a few reviews on the Tesla cables but this one really hits the nail on the head in terms of the cables lack of noise, overall balance a... 
Purist Audio vs. Synergistic Research ICs
Nsgarch,I agree the Purist Audio cables are very quite however I have never heard my system sound so quite as when it is entirely wired with SR Tesla cables (ic's, sc's and pc's). In fact this is how I would address Tesla's amazing detail. It come... 
Purist Audio vs. Synergistic Research ICs
Tight and powerfull. 
Purist Audio vs. Synergistic Research ICs
Hasse,The SR combo for warmth while maintaining the classic Tesla traits of a holographic sound stage with detail would be the Acoustic Reference from your CD player to your pre amp and Accelerator from your pre amp to your power amp.When I compar... 
Who has dumped the power conditioner?
Dave,Try the Synergistic Research Tesla PowerCell. Prior to it I used dedicated circuits and high end power cords. I had tried all the same power conditioners you list, and concluded that power conditioners do more harm then good. Aside from what ... 
Who has dumped the power conditioner?
SME10,I have been a loooong time power conditioner disbeliever. For years I have used dedicated circuits in lue of an AC line conditioner. Recently I did a shootout between several line conditioners at the insistence of my dealer. Most of the line... 
Best power conditioner?
Drummertitchell is correct- you need to listen to a power conditioner (or anything else for that matter) before you can decide what is best for your system. I listened to several line conditioners before deciding on a Synergistic Research PowerCel...

Why gold?
Kijanki,From what I have gathered, cables (when properly designed) are voiced with materials that compliment a given cable by things like conductor material, and connectors. An easy experiment (though not inexpensive) is to listen to two different... 
Any cable suggestions for my Thiel 2.4's?
Hey Pops,I am not trying to start a flame war but my statement is based on my experience with SR Tesla cables and several other brands. As I stated, they image like nothing else I have ever heard in my system. If anyone can offer another explanati...
