Any comments on Synergistic Research Atmosphere

Thank for for contributing. Did you listen to level-3 ?
What other interconnects did you compare level 4 with.
I have been using an Audioquest Chetah between source and preamp and Shunyata Aries between pre and power amps for about 5 years with good results. When I inserted a pair of level 2 cables, there was a major improvement in the overall musicality of my system. There was more energy, a more robust sound, rock steady soundstage, excellent low frequency extension and more high frequency information. It was not, however, the last word in transparency.

Is your Shunyata Aries solid core or stranded? Also, is it copper or silver?

The Shunyata Aries is stranded copper with locking connectors. I compared it to the Audience AU24 before purchase and preferred the shunyata.
The Audioquest Cheetah is pure Silver with a 36V dc battery pack. It is a good cable, without any serious flaws. However
it was blown away by the atmosphere level 2. Listening to female vocals with the Level 2 was like listening to a real
person singing. This was not the case with the cheetahs.

Sunnyjim,
I can't say I was underwhelmed. Cables are system dependent. And I didn't find the Level 4 i.c. match well with the rest of my system in the eventual sound that I heard. I can vouch for its rich density though.
I have no experience with Audience, unfortunately.

Pretty soon the the Mark 2 version will be released that will be even better!
