Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments?

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.

As much as I liked the Synergistic stuff, I just couldn’t keep up with the dollars needed for the continuous upgrades.
I got off that ride and went to simpler cables of very high quality conductors.

I don't find I need to upgrade continuously. I am happy with the sound of my system. I don't let what a manufacturer does push me into upgrading just because he came out with a new line. For instance, I have no intention of buying the new Element cables. If I had a bottomless wallet and if there was something lacking in the sound of my system I might be interested. But such is not my case -- wallet-wise or sound-wise. There has to be an end to it all. Otherwise you are on an endless treadmill where you are never satisfied and always in the upgrade-and-test mode. Never enough -- an audio junkie.
