Preamp PC - Elrod Sig II or SR Tesla T2 or ??

I need to improve upon my pc situation at the preamp.

I've heard many good things on the SR T2 tesla line pc.... and have an Elrod Sig III supplying a RSA Haley which in turn feeds the mono blocks, and would also likely feed the Thor line stage preamp.

Any thoughts on these two or another pc for my preamp would be appreciated a lot.

Thanks much

Jim, add some Synergistic Telsa PC's as you can afford them. No need to go all out. In the end you WILL have an amazing soundstage.

Violin, I know! I was floored myself... The soundstage really opens up with the Teslaplex and images seem to float into the room.

A question for all you Synergistic fans. I just got a Powercell 6 with the Synergistic T3 UHC going to the wall, which I really enjoy. I am currently using non-Synergistic powercords (VH Audio Airsine and Flavor 4) hooked up to my integrated amp and CD player, but was thinking of going with Synergistic T3's. Do you think this will improve the sound of my system with the Powercell? I just got a Gabriel Gold Rapture right before I decided to try the Powercell and I'm very happy with it and don't want to give it up. Any issues with keeping that in my system if PCs are all Synergistic or do you think a Synergistic IC would make a further improvement? I also plan to get a Teslaplex outlet. I have an FIM 880, which I've liked,but seems like the Teslaplex is a no-brainer.

There is a definite synergism between the SR cords. However, all systems are different and the amount of difference/improvement you hear may or may not be significant to you. The interconnects DEFINITELY do matter as well

Probably the best thing for you to do is experiment, probably through renting various SR cables/pcs through the Cable Company. Just be sure and let them break into the system for at least several days before doing any critical evaluation. Good luck.

Hchilcoat, get the Teslaplex first. Then try a T3 on integrated and T2 on CDP. If you want a bigger warmer sound go for a T3 on the CDP. If you like neutral and airy stay with the T2. The Synergistic interconnects are all different. I'd say try an Accelerator for fast and neutral or an Acoustic Reference, which I think is better but warmer and nicly extended in the bass and treble over the Accelerator.

Hchilcoat,
I agree with Fplanner2000 and Joeyboyn, there is tremendous synergism going on between the SR power cords and ICs, but as I posted above , when used with the Teslaplex wall outlets,the system synergy is unbelievable.The Teslaplex outlets take the ICs and PWs to a new level
