Why don't gold based cable fans try Synergistic

I find my SR cabling to be very neutral and transparent, neither warm or fatiguing at all. I have a very resolving system and they present in a very natural, organic manner, neither adding nor subtracting from the soundstage. I have had other brands of cabling in my system and have discovered that its really all about the SYNERGY with your other gear. I have a tough time agreeing with some of the blanket statements above regarding increased dynamics caused by these cables(at least the newer ones which I have), because that was and is not the case with me. I find that I can now "hear into the music" like never before with my SR cabling, etc., which I really enjoy. The realism is not exaggerated but just "there".

Trelja, you say, "We are the "others" you talk about." Obviously, not. You speak only for yourself.

You say, "Ray Charles would have no trouble reading into "the importer's unwillingness to put a pair out for review" when it comes to you writing them up." Obviously, you have no knowledge about this. As I have said before SoundStage knew about Brian Ackerman wanting me to do a review but being unwilling at the time to dedicate a pair for review. Ask him and for the first time have some knowledge about this. You say you have had plenty of off line correspondence. So have I, much of it asking about my opinions of the Tidals and to ignore Bill Feil. No one mentioned you at all.

You say, "Let's not try to revise history, that episode precipiated your firing from the reviewing position." I agree that we should not seek to revise history. My review of the Tidal speakers had nothing to do with my stent at reviewing with SoundStage ending. It was my posting on Audiogon that caused it, in particular a comment about Gryphon amps. I had informed SoundStage that I posted often on AudioAsylum and Audiogon. They were not pleased, but took me on as a reviewer.

You say, "In other words, what you bring the discussion in terms of how you've obtained the product, and its corollary, what the truth actually is." I really don't know what this means, but suspect you mean that because of what you think happened with Tidal, that my personal experiences are invalid. I can say little about this twisted logic, except that it does you a disservice if anyone previously valued your opinions.

Again, you offer little other than snide remarks and your limited perspective with no evidence that you are even close to knowing what happened. Why, I don't know. Perhaps you sell these gold cables?

Tbg, it's sad to see a person write so many words, yet not say anything. Just sheer BS. No matter how much you twist and try to spin things, some will not forget.

BTW, no interest, financial or otherwise, in gold or ANY cable product.

I had SR Au79 ICs and Tesla Quad (specially QTd) SCs in my system for a few months. They were good but, like all cables, dependent on the other components, plugs and tweaks in my system to maximize their potential. Synergy is everything. I have recently been doing a serious upgrade to my system and needed to go up the SR ladder to maximize my system's potential -- but the high silver content in the top SR cables posed compatibility problems with my new speakers whose maker does not recommend high content silver cabling. So I switched to Gabriel Gold Reflection PC, ICs and SCs while keeping a Master Coupler DIY-terminated with Oyaide plugs and IECs for my sub and for the connection from my amp to step-down transformer. As I say, synergy is everything. The Gabriel Golds sound absolutely wonderful in my system -- low level detail with warmth, dynamics, sound stage. I will soon be adding an SR PowerCell 10SE to put the icing on the sonic cake. No buyer's regret about changing from SR to Gabriel Gold.

I have added the Synergistic Research PowerCell 10SE to my system with the SR Precision Reference power cord and Galileo MPC. This has made a huge improvement bringing my system to a new level. Plugging the Gabriel Gold Reflection power cord into the wall receptacle (an SR Tesla Plex that is in series with an SR Tesla Plex SE) has brought my system up another level. It was previously between the source and the PowerCell. There is great synergy between GG and SR.
