Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments?


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.

I continues to be impressed by the cells. After a couple of days, I would say speed, clarity, extended bass without becoming lean or sacrificing fullness or sweetness of the sound is the major benefit here. I tried adding some MIGs today, first under my Berkeley DAC then under ASR battery unit for the line level then under the two power supplies.
In my setup, pin point configuration seems to be more additive to the benefit of the cells. Voice gains more body, strings gain a touch more bloom and nice decay. Last night I went to see Silk Road Ensemble with Yo Yo Ma. May be it is my imaginating things but today, listening to Bernstein performance of Mahler Symphony No.2, opening movement, I feel that for the first time, I could really hear how the sound resonates from a Cello soundboard/body.
The only annoying thing is that brass. Listening to fanfare in Tuba Mirum from Verdi's Requeim seemed bit dull. It seems that at least one ambience configuration either on DAC or ASR battery pack helps quite a bit in this case. However, I am not sure I want to keep flipping MIGs everytime I want to listen to something with trumpet or horn :( and flip it back for everything else!
I have not heard any other footer that change the sound this much, be it metal cone, spike, rubber footer, roller ball etc except for perhaps the new Nordost Titanium something or other cone that I heard recently at a demo at a local hifi show. Unfortunately even with special discount at the show, one single cone would buy me a couple sets of MIGs and some change.

I have not try MIGs under ASR unit itself as I am not sure if ASR acrylic chassis would be able to sustain its weight (about 40 something Kgs, I think) on 3 MIGs without breaking.
Here is a copy of my posting in the Tech Section on the Audio Prism Ground Control units. I thought I would share it with the SR croud since it complements my SR speaker cables so much.

Well I finally had one of the Ground Controls for about a week.
I will admit that these little things dont look like much but they do provide a marked sound quality, improvemnent in my system.
Music seems to be much more relaxed or natural and the soundstage is deeper and wider. Vocals are very nice and defined closer to the real thing.
I liked the Ground Control device so much that I ordered another for my Bi-wire speakers.

Now, I am using the Synergistic Research Apex Bi wire speaker cables and these have the active shielding. Perhaps because of this the Ground Control complements the cables.
I duuno, but they are worth the price of the improvement in sound even though they dont look like much.
Highly recommended
Suteetat, I too have added both the MIGs and the Universal Cells. I tried them one at a time only to realize, as I have said, that the final one makes all the difference. Like you I find they get better with time, but mine have not settled down yet. What really takes me aback is the precision of the sound stage, especially on live recordings. One can clearly hear the separation of the first and second violins as well as what is going on deep in the sound stage.

The MIGs are an unexpected benefit, again as I have said. I did not think they could work. But work they do! I have found the placement of the feet under components greatly affects their performance. And for some unknown reason, they break in! Moving them around doesn't undo this but switching from ambient to pin-point does. I still am using pin-point only under my amp.

Ozzy, of course the question arrises-do the SR Universal Cells and the Audio Prism Ground Controls complement each other?
Tbg, I would think they will. But, the only way to know is to give them a try.

Adwiegart,

I use the Alan Maher Ref. II to best effect with the Powercell 10 SE. It works better ahead of the Precision AC, which comes with the 10 SE, rather than plugged into the 10 SE's outlets.

The Alan Maher Infinitys or CBFs, (Circuit Breaker Filters) are very good at clarifying the sound, when used in the breaker box. There are lots of fields in a breaker box because the wires must be unparalleled in order to route the hot wires through the individual breakers. I suspect this is whythese tow products are less effective on powercords and other paralelled AC wires.

I use a PE V Pro plugged into a transformer, which is plugged into the wall.
I find it best to not plug AC enhancers or other PLCs into the Powercell 10 SE. It's qualities seem to be best achieved by having the 10 SE as the last devise before the component, especially source components.

And thanks to tbg for the advise on getting the Speaker Cells next.
