Synergistic Research Galileo SX Power cord. (Opinions on sound quality appreciated).

You should definitely have the ground plug connected. That’s the whole point of SR stuff.

The “bullet” stuff is just a gimmick IMO. They never did anything for me. Perhaps I am deaf, but that’s my honest experience 

24 hours later and the music is starting to resolve. The forwardness is receding and I can hear a grittiness in the music that wasn't there with my former cables.
Don't believe the hype that cables don't need time to break in...

Thanks for the updates - I am trying out a slew of cables right now - no AC cables at this time - it is a process...break in - settling for sure, but also I think it also can take some time to fully "appreciate" (or not) what a cable may or may not be doing...thanks for doing this.

Thank You for an initial report. I would give the cable(s) at least 200 hours.  Looking forward to the next impression at this mark.

Happy Listening!

Ozzy how are you grounding the Galileo’s external shield ground connection? It is very important that you 1st ground the pigtail, and 2nd ground it directly to the wall and definitely not into a power conditioner. Also which UEF tuning bullet are you using? Typically I don’t connect the tuning bullet for the first week, but if it sounds bright, use the Gold bullet and then experiment with the Silver bullet after one week. And whatever you do, make certain you ground that ground pigtail directly to the wall, not into a line conditioner.
