The Intellectual People Podcast - Galen Gareis (Former Belden Wire Designer)
I emailed / called Bob Howard from the website and discussed my needs with him and also called a couple of referrals of other users to get their impressions.

Ok, I bit...I am getting a full iconoclast loom sent to me for audition - will let everyone know my thoughts - good, bad or indifferent...supposed to arrive next week...will give it appropriate time to settle (maybe even break in? :)  - - sorry Do... 
I have had the ADD Powr Wizard in my system for a couple of weeks and I'm impressed
@david_ten thanks for the review and recommendation on the ADD-Powr Sorcer! Ozzy, I will try the springs that Geoff sells.  
Synergistic Research Galileo SX Power cord. (Opinions on sound quality appreciated).
Ozzy, eager to hear your review - I am using an ADD-powr Sorcer now because of you! What a great addition - I am eying the SX and interested in your thoughts on the sound/difference it makes. I have other SR products and find them very helpful, bu... 
Diffuser or absorber behind listening position....and is it worth doing??
Have you thought of Synergistic UEF panels withe the UEF dots? I have found them very effective in my listening room. Smaller panels that work magic. And you can demo them -

The Sorcer does change the sound for me in my system, for the better...better bass, and all frequencies are improved. It is definitely more musical. Better air, space, depth...I am experimenting with placement - have not tried various footers yet....

I just purchased a Sorcerer based on a home system trial after several reviews and recommendations on audiogon..I agree with others assessment on what this does to the listening experience. I would not classify this as a tweak as I think it is mor...

Guys, I think maybe the point here is missed...Galen, knew cables sounded different and went about trying to "measure" why, but more importantly challenge himself to design a cable that both measured well and sounded great.  To his credit he state... 
Game Changing Tweak
Why do we reject tweaks due to "pure" science, or scientific thinking? And call it snake oil...Does science explain everything? And dispute everything too? hmmm...why are we DISCOVERING WHY cement actually hardens - in 2020???But we've been using ... 
A New Ground -- Benefits of introducing the Synergistic Research Active Ground Block SE
I have the same question - also, apparently SR has come out with new grounding cable...HD SX ground cable...anyone tried that as well? Also a less expensive Foundation grounding cable...also new.  
Legacy Wavelet as Preamp/DAC/DSP vs just DSP
I have the legacy Valors and the Wavelet - the wavelet replaced a very expensive $20k plus preamp and DAC - I was VERY hesitant to even try the wavelet alone...but I blew a fuse in my DAC and thought - ok, what have I got to lose...and ended going... 
Stillpoints Aperture or Synergistic UEF panels Which one?
Interesting that the panels absorb - hmmm...it seems to me it creates more air space, more alive sound, but musical nonetheless...oh, well - bummer they don't work with the HFT originals... 
Stillpoints Aperture or Synergistic UEF panels Which one?
Ozzy, how are the speaker hft's from SR?  these have been on my list to try -  want to make sure that it still stays warm and musical - and doesn't get too 'dry' if you know what I mean?  
Stillpoints Aperture or Synergistic UEF panels Which one?
It looks like on the SR website it is compatible with everything but the original HFT? It's on the compatibility page for acoustics. Bummer - Alfred is usually pretty good at responding.  
Stillpoints Aperture or Synergistic UEF panels Which one?
I had the HFT's originally then teamed with an ATM Atmosphere. While I really like most, if not all of synergistic research stuff, for me anyway, it was a little hi-fi for me - I sent the ATM back - and the standard HFT's - now, in fairness, this ...
