New Synergistic Product: Tuning Discs


I was lucky enough to be asked to try out a prototype of a new Synergistic Research product. For now, I think they are calling it a Tuning disc.

What it looks like is a small wafer (smaller than a dime and is very thin). They are either in gold or purple tops and are attached using some tacking substance. I placed 2 on top of my Shunyata Sigma V2 interconnects.

I wasn’t expecting much but whoa, did these things work! First, I tried the purple on my interconnects and boy did the soundstage widen with lots of air.

Then I tried the gold discs and though the sound stage shrunk perhaps a little but the naturalness of the music was fantastic!

 

Hard to believe that these things work so well, I am really impressed.

Once again, these threads start going off topic.

I only posted this thread to share my opinion of a seemingly small disc that does perform quite well.

Some of the posts remind me of a time when I was power cord denier. I mean how can a 4–6-foot length of a power cord make a difference when there are potentially miles of wire leading to my house? There is no way I could believe it.

One day a salesman offered me to try a Synergetic Master coupler. Knowing that it would do nothing other than cost me money, I reluctantly took it home.

Once plugged in I couldn’t believe it. There was more bass and more of everything! How can this be?

Well, that was the start of my journey down the road of keeping an open mind when it comes to this hobby.

So here we go again with the same type of attitude, closed minds believing it can’t be true.

At this point, I believe in a few days I will ask Tammy to remove this thread. It is creating too much hostility. Those of you later on that try these discs can post your own opinions elsewhere.

Ozzy, are you using them with Townshend cables?

The material might be Shungite perhaps or similar? I’ve been meaning to try Shungite, so this reminds me.

Yes, my speaker cables are 1M of the Townshend F-1 Fractal cables. I'm not really sure what the conductor is. Interconnects are 3M Shunyata Sigma V2.

I see no reason for you to take your thread down.

It is your thread in which you are writing about your subjective experiences with this product thereby opening up a debate upon said product.

However we live in a democratic society,  as is this forum … ergo is it realistic to expect that every respondent will be favourably minded  toward an unexplained product with properties unknown to science, and only expect enthusiastic comment from the membership as a whole?

Que the “ Why are you in this thread weenering posts  “

Well … Its a Democracy , and those folks are entitled to post their opinion without being ganged up on by the usual * How Very Dare You* cabal ( yes you know who you are 😉) 

I hope that you keep your thread up and running and post your own considerations regardless.

As much as I love reading about such things, people sharing their experiences, I am afraid you are right, and this is the way to go. For some reason, like flies to poop, they become magnet for deranged individuals
