I just bought Synergistic Research's new Tesla Accelerator speaker cables and Tesla Vortec interconnects from The Cable Company. I have tried many demo cables from The Cable Company over the past year. These were the first to give me that WOW factor I been looking for so long.
Does anyone have these cables and can you please post your impressions and comments? Thanks.
Rydenfan, my experience is that you have to give a Tesla cable a long time to sit untouched and settle into your system before you make final judgements. Like some others, I would say around 250-300 hours.
Foster, thanks for the suggestion. However, my reasoning for switching between the Accelerator and Acoustic Reference interconnect comes straight from Ted D himself. With all other Tesla cables in place you can do a quick A/B from source to pre to see what works best. After that is established, then you should let all the cables settle in to optimize the sound.
From the time I received my SR cables I've kept my system playing basically for 24 hours per day for my break-in period. These cables continue to get better and better each day. I've been totally amazed by these SR Tesla cables.
Thanks guys for the break-in info re: bass response. 2-300 hours is relatively easy compared to the 800+ hours my VD speaker cables took....
I think part of my problem may also be that my VR-7s bass drivers are probably not as broken in yet as they need to be. The speakers are only a few months old. Does anyone have a CD recommendation that will emphasize the bass drivers for break-in? (I'll probably also ask Albert VS)
