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 remember Steve at GG let me demo his Reflection IC and as I remember it was as good and in fact better than the SR Apex cable with out all the BS MPC dookickies all over the place.

SR knows how to keep a $$$ flow going with SE/MK/Gold/silver/copper/QT MK3 ect... $1200.00 cable now is better than $3600.00 Apex of yesteryear.

Everyone upgrades. That's not a valid criticism, IMO. It is the pace of the upgrades that is sometimes irksome. I don't think you can argue with quality when it works in your system. If SR didn't work in your system so be it. But for a large number of people -- including me -- SR products work very well when you pick and choose well. They are indisputably one of the very best cable companies out there.

The dohickies are part of what makes their cables work so well. If you don't like a bunch of wires snaking like a spider's web all over the place I can understand that. My wires are a mess and there is no way to change that except to get rid of some wires. The sound is more important than the aesthetics for me.

Your comments that "SR knows how to keep a $$$ flow going" also applies to other cable makers. All cable makers are in business to make money -- are they not? This is not a valid criticism, IMO.

For me, valid criticisms are related to the quality of the products I purchase and how quickly SR renders them redundant. If the quality is there I am happy. If they render my recent purchase redundant right after I make payment I am not happy -- especially when it is a new product in their line that has not even had time to get to first base in the audio marketplace.

These are the things that matter to me -- not how much money they are making or how many wires are hanging all over the place.

Reading the forum and I agree with Sabai. I have a full home theater setup of S.R Tesla SE power cords , interconnects , speaker wire and two QLS's. All have a single/dual Galileo MPC. My wires are neatly arrayed in a sequence of direction with wife friendly appeal. I have all my components on floating shelves awaiting some Tranquility Bases for each component with miggs between each.

The only thing I didn't like about upgrading from previous series is that the regular mpc's are obsolete with the Galileo MPC. I couldn't get any dollar or trade value for my old MPC. But someone new can buy one for $125 from a dealer. Whys that? $400 compared to $125 is huge difference. But for the difference in quality I guess it works out.

Yes, the difference in price for the MPCs is significant. I actually had to swap out a Galileo MPC for a standard one. I have so many Galileos in my system, when I plugged in the last one my system became unlistenable -- with sound stage collapsed and harsh, soulless music emanating from my speakers. Once I swapped back the standard MPC everything was beautiful again. I have no explanation for this dramatic change in system synergy. Probably too much of a good thing.
